This is a list of the strongest drinks you would normally order at a bar. Strength is roughly calculated per ounce of a typical serving. Results will very from bar to bar. Each shot is 1.5 ounces and each drink is calculated with a standard proof per liquor unless noted.
This cocktail is the classic choice for anyone needing to play catch up, or who wants the most bang for their buck. Onc shot of every basic type of alcohol, topped with coke to slightly mask the flavor. This tastes exactly how is sounds but somehow people manage to get these down quickly.
1 Shot Tequila
1 Shot Gin
1 Shot Vodka
1 Shot Rum
1 Shot Triple Sec
Lemon Juice
Coke
There is 38% Alcohol in a standard 8 oz of this drink.
A slightly sweeter take on the Long Island, an AMF (also known as Adios MotherF*cker.) packs slightly more punch per pound. The addition of the sweet liquor Blue Curacao, adds a ting more alcohol to the mix, and does a much better job of hiding the harsh sting of the rum vodka gin and tequila.
1 Shot Tequila
1 Shot Gin
1 Shot Vodka
1 Shot Rum
1 Shot Blue Curacao
Lemon Juice
Sprite or 7Up
There is 40% Alcohol in a standard 8 oz of this drink.
The Zombie is a dangerous yet delicious rum concoction from the classic Tiki Bar era. There are many versions, usually changing up the ratio of juices in the mix.
1 shot dark rum
1 shot light rum
1 shot 151 rum
1/2 shot Marashino Liquer
Lime Juice
Grapefruit Juice
Pinapple Juice
Grenadine
There is 27% alcohol in a standard 10 oz of this drink.
Ever wonder why Brazillians are always so happy? It is the cachaça, a rum like liquor made from sugar cane, which is drank almost exclusively in Brazil. The caipirinha is the national cocktail of the land, made with cachaça, sugar, and lime juice. And thats it. Normally these drinks are miniature at most bars, like the drink shown below, but if you ever find yourself in a Brazillian bar, be far warned, they can come in large 10 oz cups, and yes, all that liquid is cachaça.
2.5 shot of cachaca
sugar
lime
There is 50% alcohol in a standard 5 oz of this drink.
The Mind Eraser is the quintessential 21st birthday drink. A large drink, but meant to be drank like a shot, these were made to hit you fast and hard. You are supposed to drink with a wide straw all at once, sucking in the vodka and Kahlua instantly, and then letting the soda water wash it away.
2 shots Vodka
2 shots Kahlua
soda water
There is 20% alcohol in a standard 8 oz of this drink.
The dangers of the Caribou Lou lies in the sweetness. You cannot taste a drop of alcohol, since the coconut rum is so sweet, and the pineapple juice masks the burn very well. And yes, this is the drink popularized by Tech 9. I have actually ordered this at a bar and got laughed at, but was served, and it was delicious.
1 1/2 shot 151 rum
1 shot coconut rum
pineapple juice
There is 35% alcohol in a standard 10 oz of this drink.
Before there was Four Loko, there was Redbull Vodkas and Rockstar 151. I can't stand either, but if you really feel its necessary to mix energy drinks and alcohol, do your taste buds a favor and and go with a Rockstar 151. The extra sweet and sour will help mask the "children's vitamins" taste (you noticed it too??)
3 shots 151 rum
2 shots sweet and sour mix
energy drink
There is 32% alcohol in a standard 10 oz of this drink.
So far, this is the yummiest of all the deadly 4 shot drinks on the list that I have had. Be careful, since this one isn't made with a mixer, if your thirsty, you will be in trouble.
There is 40% Alcohol in a standard 8 oz of this drink.

This is a cool list. One question, though. Is the AMF a relative of what we down here on the bayou refer to as Smurf P!ss? Just wondering. Thanks for the list!
You notice how much sugar there is in these power drinks ... just about guaranteed to give you a mind-blowing hangover!! Have a care if you're drinking these babies! Great list.
