Slide right into a purple haze with Drank
Posted in: UncategorizedIf you keep purple stuff all in yo cup when ur rollin’ up, then you’re in luck. Now you can “Slow your roll†in true hip-hop fashion with a legal version of the purple sizzurp. Drank, the Anti-Energy Drink, is a carbonated, grape-flavored concoction with melatonin, valerian root and rose hips. It’s modeled after “purple drank,†an over-the-counter drug cocktail of soda, cough syrup and codeine (note the cough syrup bottle on the Drank label). The drug version was first made popular by DJ Screw (although I think Homer Simpson should get some credit for inventing the cough-syrup cocktail in 1991). After a number of hip-hop anthems to the purple stuff, it spread throughout the southern U.S. Fortunately, the legal stuff is less likely to end up with a “Notable deaths†section on its Wikipedia page. It might just be the perfect thing to bring your down after a can of Cocaine. So, can I buy u a Drank? Via the Village Voice.
