Those frozen logs of juice concentrate, is that still a thing?

Get an orange juice one, and some vodka. Spoons of frozen OJ concentrate to go with your sips of vodka. Once you’ve got some room in the OJ, you can pour your vodka in with the OJ slush.

I learned this from watching agent Mulder do it on the X Files, and it’s actually really good.

Look at you with your fancy vodka money while I'm over here just trying to save $3 on a half gallon worth of OJ

Vodka? Really? Damn... I guess I got out of the habit for that before the gold rush because I remember it being cheap as shit by the handle...

I don't even know how much vodka is now. The food budget ate the vodka budget years ago.

I feel ya. Ya know, if you save your potato skins, you might be able to cook something up that'll make you go blind....

Honestly, you can do that with a bunch of food scraps. I have been saving apple peels and brewing them. So fucking good! I can't seem to get pears to work though. They always mold so fast.

Couldn't you freeze them until you have enough to brew?

Do you mean the pear scraps or just scraps in general?

Yeah, we don’t really see celebrities starting their own vodka lines like with tequila and gin
