How to Refine Purell into Drinkable Alcohol
-A concise and short guide for you fucking enlisted types

When you go to the field you always bring some alcohol but we all know no matter how much you bring its never enough. There needs to be a way to produce it in the field, on the fly with commonly available military stores. As it turns out this is completely possible!

YOU WILL NEED
-Purell (8-10oz bottle, plain old basic purell. No other brand or 'advanced formula' shit)
-A salt packet from your ration
-A pop bottle
-Coffee filters or paper towel
-A rubber band
-Gatorade (Yellow is best, red is 2nd place)
(Optional)
-a sawyer filter

First you need to ensure you are in private and will be undisturbed for about 30 minutes. You need to be in an area that is a good temperature. About 20C or 65F is perfect, hotter is better though. The reaction with salt requires a warm place to work.

1. Open the bottle of purell and empty the salt packet into the bottle. Put the lid back on tightly.
2. Shake the fuck out of it for a few seconds. It will go cloudy and suddenly have the consistency of water. This is good.
3. Place the bottle somewhere standing up for 30 minutes. Don't disturb it at all. The white stuff will sink to the bottom and clump into a gel of cleaning products and other nasty badness. The longer you wait the better the final taste.
4. Cut the pop bottle in half and put the coffee filter or 4 layers of paper towel into the bottle to act as a funnel. Secure it with a rubber band.
5. Once the gel has settled and the purell is clear you can dump it all into the filter nest. DO NOT let the gel clump get into the filter, this will ruin the taste.
6. The alcohol will now get slightly filtered by the filter or paper towel. This will take a while. At random the alcohol will stop dripping through with a bunch left inside the filter. This is fine, throw it all away.
7. Repeat filtering if you want but it won't matter.
8. If you have a sawyer filter make a full pop bottle of filtered alcohol and push it through the sawyer. This actually makes it into very nice to drink moonshine.
9. Mix it with gatorade and enjoy. Don't even try it straight. One 8-10oz bottle will reliably produce enough alcohol at high concentration to be equivalent to 5 shots.

Have fun troops. Most guys need two bottles to get fucked up properly.
