Eh, getting a used, clean, food-safe barrel is probably about the same price as a sturdy trash bin. They’re quite often available for use as a rain barrel.

Time for a lemon party.
White trash me: what’s the issue?
Science nerd me: that plastic probably was intended for maximum durability, not food safety.
All those yummy acids chewing away at the bin while you're drinking it -- it's a plastical experience!
Some plastic bins are acid resistant. I only learned this from Walter White.
~~Microplastics~~
Synthetic fiber 👍
White trash me: what’s the issue?
Same, buddy. We used to do this, except it was three quarters lemonade and a quarter whatever cheap liquor everyone brought. So you'd have whiskey, both light and dark rum, vodka (lots of vodka) tequila, gin if one specific guy showed up..... Pretty much anything cheap.
Trash cans are not safe to drink out of.
Same. We threw a big college party and made “trashcan punch”. A couple hundred dollars worth of fruit, several big containers of koolaid, everclear, and a garden hose. Everyone was wasted and we still had to pour out over half down the sewer drain the day. Worth it.
Gotta watch out for those lemon-stealing whores 😤
I can't speak. I've used cut up propane tanks to hold wine.
Hello, is this still available???
lemonparty is always available 😒
Sadly it is not really available anymore. Just redirects
shiiiiit, we’re getting old.
No but now you can buy a bin full of prison wine for parties, reunions any events.
Yes
Trash can lemonade for lemon parties !
I mean I already have microplastics from everything else so would this matter much really? Really should have just sprung for the plastic barrel with the spigot though that is going to be an ordeal to pour nearing the bottom
I’m hedging my bets that microplastics are a cliff problem. Avoid them right and you’ll die before you’ll ever see their effects.
Hope you are right, but I also keep seeing they are in every organism and also the atmosphere so I don't know how to dodge that. Suppose it matters how much of a dose you are injesting before it causes serious repercussions. I'm betting on increased dementia personally.
"2 for 1 Bonus: you can BBQ the surprise marinating at the bottom."
Throw in a couple litres of vodka and You got yourself a party.
Add some broth, a potato. Baby, you've got a stew going.
I made so many liters of sangria in trash bins
This lemonade tastes like trash.
This trash tastes like lemonade!
when life gives you lemons by the bushel
