Jungle JuiceJungle juice has no one way to be created. The amount of alcohol depends on how much alcohol is put into the juice. Once they mix together, there is no way to know how much alcohol is in one cup of jungle juice. It’s also impossible to determine if there are

predatory drugs like GHB, Ketamine

or Rohypnol in the jungle juice. Since jungle juice is not regulated, more alcohol can be added throughout the night, making the drink more alcoholic or less alcoholic. Without a clear understanding of how much alcohol someone is drinking, it is easy to become dangerously intoxicated.Grain alcohol can be added to jungle juice. It is

approximately 95% alcohol.

Alcohol Poisoning

Acute alcohol poisoning is an emergency. Make the call! Too much alcohol will kill a person. Never leave an intoxicated person alone.
