Having a party of major proportions. A PJ-PJ party. PJ (the punch) and PJ the pajamas. So, an adult slumber party if you will. At any rate, the problem is that I don't know how to make PJ. I rememeber having tasted some in college. I recall it being made usually in a bathtub or a trashcan (clean of course) and it having fruit in it...usually in a fruity-punch flavored type drink. I don't know how to make it.

Anyone with some help? Also any other suggestions for the party are always appreciated.

:)

I don't recall the exact recipe either -- assuming that what you know as a PJ, I know as a "Purple Jesus."

The one thing I do know about a "purple Jesus" is how it got it's name.

A true Purple Jesus is made with and tastes like Welch's Purple Grape Juice. (tm) It called Purple Jesus because Welch's Purple Grape was originally formulated as a non-alcholoic communion wine for the Methodist Church.

So, If it's not made with Welch's, It is NOT a "Purple Jesus,"
 
Let me just say this......................Yuck....I would need a trash can....................
 
Thanks for the links, guys. They are way cool and I did find some great drinks in there.

I found a local drunkard who knew how to make it and I feel the urge to share it with all of y'all. (in case you want to make it sometime). I was warned however that this is the type of thing that knocks you "on your ass" before you know it...so proceed with caution.

Mostly this is made in some sort of huge vat (bathtub, trashcan, cooler, etc.) You use Everclear and some sort of fruit juice. Starting 2 days before hand you mix in about 2 gallons of everclear (dependant on the size of your container) with various cut fruits (apples, oranges, lemons, limes, watermelon, pineapple, strawberries, grapes, cherries, etc. ) The more fruit the better, I'm told. At any rate, you let this sit and soak until the next day. Then you add enough fruit punch to make it drinkable...and let it all soak for ANOTHER day. The day of the party you add some ice to water it down a little (or not...this is optional) and prepare to get shitfaced.

My understanding is that this is a general custom of high school/college parties. That's where I remember it from.

Again, thanks for all the help! :)

More suggestions and more site links always welcomed!
