I love new recipes, so I had to look-however-not only does the combination of ingredients sound pretty awful, but I’ll hazard a guess that what is so appealing about the stuff is that it at least partially ferments to give the drinker a cheap buzz...

I’ll stick with homemade beer and wine, thanks...

If I have to brew the drink, I’ll brew beer soda or coffee.

I guess if you were fasting all day, it wouldn’t take much.

They`re brewing up Hooch, that`s why they like it. They are too stupid to know they`re getting buzzed!

That sounds like Hooch, prisoners brew it up out of bread, raisins, sugar and water.

From what I understand they don`t distill it. They drink the swill as is. He said the guards waged an eternal Hooch war, confiscating and destroying what they found, didn`t stop the inmates.

Most of us were 18-21 y/o, so we got past the taste just to get the buzz!

You got a point, I drank MD 20/20 and Night Train as an older teen. Now that’s nasty stuff!
