I was talking with my brother the other day about how refreshing this stuff looks and I was wondering if any anons had any ideas on how to recreate lean, without the drugs, since I'm not a junkie or black. Maybe some kind of grape flavoring like Mio mixed with simple syrup as a base, and then diluted with sprite and jolly ranchers added for flavor? Do any of you have ideas or resources on how to make a non-psychoactive lean?

>> No.16845029

>>16845008
The hardest part is reconstructing the color, thankfully Sprite is clear. Get yourself some purple food coloring (or red and blue) and test out different combinations. Don't add simple syrup unless you're doing the whole thing from scratch and boiling lemon-lime peel in it which infuses and basically turns the whole thing into a lemon-lime flavor, at which point you bypass the middleman and get yourself some cheap as fuck grape-flavored juice and mix it with equal parts sugar and lemon peel until it boils, let it cool down then strain into a bottle for fake-lean syrup.

I appreciate the advice anon, I was thinking of trying to make a base of imitation codeine drank (the grape flavoring with simple syrup) from scratch and then diluting with the sprite. Am i correct in assuming the codeine has a grape flavor? I have never had it before. I would imagine this base codeine would need to be fairly dark purple at first to imitate the color as seen in the pictures after dilution, so you bring up a valid point that reconstructing the color would be difficult since that's what makes it look so good.

I have come across imitation lean products in my research, like pic related. I would prefer a recipe made from scratch so that I don't have to ship the products out, and it would most likely be cheaper to make by myself. Also, I'm looking to make an imitation lean base, which can be diluted as I please. From my understanding, there are many different ways to make the final purple drank, but they all start from a codeine promethazine base. Although I suppose a can or two could serve as a nice flavor reference.

>> No.16845131

>Mio
If your goal is to reproduce cough syrup taste, get the cheapest grape flavoring you can find and add way too much of it. Possibly also add cheap alcohol for the burning effect

>> No.16845159

straight lean is basically thin slightly alcoholic syrup, sweet to the point of being gross and about as alcoholic as wine or maybe schnapps except with no flavor but sugar.

Interesting, I didn't know lean had an alcoholic burning aspect to it. Would you guys say a good lean base could be made out of either:
Purple food coloring, simple syrup, and alcohol
or
Generous grape flavoring (Mio or Koolaid?), simple syrup, and alcohol
Also if you guys used to actually drink lean, are there any other ways you would make it aside from sprite and jolly ranchers? Hope I'm not being autistic I just find this interesting.

that was only from drinking it straight up without mixing it with anything and even then it didn't really burn. some brands had 0.1% chloroform in them iirc which i think might have made it smell more alcoholic than it actually was. i kind of worried about it since i was drinking like 60 times the medicinal dose which is probably why i remember
i think if you made simple syrup and added a little vodka it would get close to the straight-out-the-bottle flavor (which sucks) and then mix it with whatever you want
i liked to mix it with fanta or any orange soda, i think anything citrus or sour goes well because it helps cut the overwhelming sweetness of drinking something that is almost pure sugar syrup

There is not. It just has a naturally strange taste. It's the codeine that makes it sweet. Liquid oxygen has almost the same taste. It's sickly sweet and slightly oily. Use a fake sugar like equal or Splenda. Closest I can equate the taste to is saccharine.

I have made "weed lean" by infusing Glycerin with THC, then combining that into a simple syrup with some food coloring. the glycerin helps thicken it up, so you could do that but it's unnecessary because you dont have to worry about binding thc to anything. overall if all you want is the look just a thick simple syrup will do. Hell, you could probably just add flavoring/color to corn syrup and get a similar result.

Exactly what I thought. I'm gonna play with the ratios a bit, I dumped a fuckton of sugar into the lean and it's a bit too sweet, and it also kinda disgusts me thinking about how much sugar I'm drinking. Honestly though I could probably just do food coloring in sprite with jolly ranchers and it'd be the exact same thing. The crispness of the sprite does contrast nicely with the saccharine sweetness

drink and do cocaine, duh. i dont think ive been sober for longer than 3 days since i was 17, except for a 3 month stint in a mental hospital. i dont really know how to function sober. i think at this point there is only one reward pathway in my brain that and it only works when im getting fucked up. im moving to a new city in a few weeks so hopefully that will help me break old habits and fix everything but ive tried that twice already so im not too optimistic. if third time isnt the charm i will probably kms myself because its either that or waiting til i die of a heart attack or stroke when im 40

I don't really get purple drank. it's low on promethazine and especially codeine. for reference I had a panacod prescription which contains paracetamol (500mg) and 30mg of codeine. I did not have a tolerance for opiates initially but it took at least 90mg of codeine to make me feel anything. considering lean has way less codeine you'd have to sip a lot of cups to get any kind of high out of that

I'm more sure it's people getting drunk off the alcohol in lean than codeine. promethazine is only marginal in its effect, I've tried all the neuroleptics including this and it does next to nothing. only quetiapine hits hard the first 50 times you do it and it only makes you fall asleep, it's not a high of any sort you get out of it

yeah codeine sucks ass, 90mg is probably the minimum for anyone to get a buzz and thats already a couple ounces of syrup at least, i think the promethazine does most of the work. also codeine has a ceiling dose because your liver has to metabolize it so if you have any sort of tolerance it gets more expensive than hydros or percs or whatever and thats a deep rabbit hole to go down
