The first time I ever heard of Everclear was from Cyber. He used to soak Marachino cherries in it for maybe a week. Dump the Everclear out, then refilled the cherry bottle with Everclear. One little ole cherry would get you smashed.
LOL!
One of my seargents thought the stuff had 'bite' to it, and handed me the bottle to 'sip'.
He seemed to think that I'd spray the stuff or cough.
Instead, he stood dumbfounded as I chugged the Everclear.
He grabbed the bottle back, and stared at me with deep suspicion afterwards.
Some nice stuff, works wonders for my coffee I am told.
