Does OJ block alcohol?

[fulloflead]

I like Margaritas (Hornitos Tequila, Contreau, lime juice, sugar) and I like Tequila Sunrises (Hornitos or Orange Cuervo Tequila, OJ, Grenadine).

I can drink about 4 Margaritas before I start getting loaded, but can drink about double that in Tequila Sunrises (all else being equal) and just feel a little buzzed.

I ALSO never feel badly the next morning after the Tequila Sunrises.

I gotta think it's the OJ.

What's up with that?

believe me, it can't be the OJ. I've drank Gin & juice so many times in my life that it's impossible. I've even mixed it with some tropical jamba juice slushee. and no matter what, this gen & juice combination gets me drunker than just about anything else under the sun.

however, that hangover thing i can definitely vouch for. NEVER have had a hangover from jen & juice.

I wouldn't think so.
Only because screwdrivers always seem to work fine on me.

And I get hungover PLENTY.

don't forget that cointreau is 80 proof so you're gettiing more alcohol in the margaritas.

More booze and sugar in the Margaritas. The huge sugar will f you up too...

[hornitosmonster]

Yup. Sugar will also make you (100% Agave vs. Mixto)

Really? 80? Are you sure. I'm out right now or I'd check. I thought it was $40.

Didn't know that either.

I need to lay off the the hard and switch to... (what, no beer emoticon?) for a while anyway.

Yeah, there's just more alcohol in the margarita than the sunrise.

too much mixing does cause the puking but dehydration causes the in the morning. What i do is once i am done i go to water and plenty of it, helps me avoid hangovers.

I like to stick to hard booze and then a glass of water between each drink.

cointreau is 80, triple sec has a lot less alcohol but tastes a lot worse imho.

Fresh squeezed OJ has a small alcohol content of its own. Usually less than 1%, but it is there.

In ripe oranges, there is a small amound of fermentation within the fruit itself.
