So. This was a mistake.
I couldn't decide whether a high-proof or a low-proof drink was more true-to-character, but 1oz Everclear to 6oz (1 packet) Capri Sun ends up at 13.57% abv so that's what I ended up with.
First. Capri Sun is viscous. It responds quite well to shaking, and aerated beautifully. The drink was opaque for a noticeably long time.
Second. Everclear is pretty bad on its own. It works as a backer for cocktails, but Capri Sun is only lightly flavored. This drink would have needed a citrus to balance it.
Dear readers, it was foul. It was almost exactly as I imagine a rancid Capri Sun would taste. The mouthfeel did not compliment the flavor, and the flavor was, itself, not good. Somehow, sticking the little yellow straw in the drink did make it marginally better. Marginally.

MISO CARROT CORDIALIn a blender, combine the sugar, carrot juice (store-bought is fine), and white miso paste. Blend until the sugar is dissolved. Fortify the syrup with the grains of paradise tincture. The cordial will keep for a week and a half in the refrigerator.
