is there any way to make not-disgusting booze in a bag at home?

i barred from drinking liquor for several reasons by my immediate family. ive looked into making what is basically prison liquor under their noses
im thinking 5-6 peeled oranges partially shopped up in a blender
3 "dole" fruit cups with pinapple, mango, and a few other things
40-50 grams of sugar
and 3 tsb of malic acid or citric acid. im leaning towards malic
how strong of a product should i expect after about 2 weeks of fermentation? 40%? 70%?
and how terrible do you think it would taste? would there be methanol in it?
im guessing its bad, because it doesnt seem like normal people do this. most teks online seem like they're written by people who have never actually tried this and they dont really mention how strong this stuff is
and no, just going to a liquor store isnt an option, all of my money is an account that isn't mine

Buy champagne yeast if ur going to make it. also make sure you do it right and use a airlock. I honestly recommend just quitting booze though, its obvious there's some negative reason why your immediate family wants you to quit. Quitting alcohol abuse in my life was one of my best decisions Ive ever made. There would be methanol, that's why wine hangovers are the worst, and all the sugar. You wont be able to get much more than 20% without distillation. Also Ive made beer before and you can kinda smell it fermenting. Don't use canned fruit either, it contains preservatives that will fuck it up. You can use certain types of juice/ certain types of concentrated juice with sugar. I recommend you just quit though, alcohol is shitty to be addicted to.

Lol maybe 5% and it will taste like vomit if it actually produces alcohol. Just get a bottle of grape juice and some of your mommy's baking yeast.
I'm not sure you understand fermentation.
Ever try chugging isopropyl? I heard it gets you pretty buzzed....

Barring killing your family just take a a 5 galon bucket put about 3.5 galons of water toss in like 5 packs of koolaid flavor of your choice about 2 lbs of sugar and 3-4 packs of yeast once it gets fizzy it's drinkable but as it gets un fizzy you may wanna give it a stir and add a cup of sugar when the yeast starts to die. Whole deal from start to drinkable takes about 2 days and if you don't add the sugar later on you end up with koolaid flavored vinegar.

damn. on top of all that other stuff, that alone makes it totally not worth it.
they're fine with me buying beer and wine. they know im an alcoholic and stopping pretty difficult without a benzo to taper with
i havnt had any large ammnt of liquor in months though. i just miss it, its sooo difficult to actually get "drunk" with beer or wine when you have a serious tolerance
i was hoping this stuff would be really potent. guess not

yes, start with quality ingredients such as grapes and sugar and yeast, use proper equipment such as a glass carboy, airlock and bottling equipment
or...
do the smart thing and stop drinking when it's clear you have an issue with it

It will get fizzy right away, but it wont have much alcohol in general, you would want to let it sit for a week to a month or until the air lock stops producing bubbles. Then you put it in a second container until its clear and pour into bottles while leaving the sediment on the bottom, it doesn't always clear up naturally though so some wine makers put these magical pills in it to clear it up. Don't use baking yeast either it will taste like shit. Make sure you use clean equipment as well. I recommend just quitting though, much better decision. I'm only telling you how to do it so you don't end up getting sick if you decide to do it.

I'd say just trust they have your best interest at heart and stay away from the liquor but..
Your money right? Tell your parents you want to invest in gold, buy gold with said money in not your account, go to place that buys gold, sell the gold. Buy liquor with cash.
Hate to aid you in getting around the liquor store ban, but it's probably safer than having you try to make your own damn alcohol. You're gonna fuck up and drink something that's going to make you extremely sick. Could even kill you.
Well now this is redundant.

I did that when I was a kid. Did it for a long time too (years, pretty much daily). It took a long time to recover from the damage done and I still haven't fully. After I finally stopped, it took me 6 months just to not stutter on every word out of my mouth. I pretty much lost the ability to really talk. I can talk now, but it's still difficult for me. I freeze up a lot when there's a word I'm trying to think of but can't quite remember, not like a hard/obscure word, I mean something as simple as "desk". I just won't be able to think of the damn word. I'm sure it's effected me in many other ways as well.
It's one of the few "drug" habits I've had that I'm actually ashamed of. It was so fucking stupid for me to do and I paid a heavy price for doing it. I was only maybe 13 when someone showed me. Long before I knew that doing stuff like that would have consequences.

I've made pruno before and all I used is oranges, fruit cocktail, sugar, and white bread. Mash it all up in a plastic bag and put it somewhere warm for about a week. It's not pretty but it does the trick. You might just end up drinking beer in the end, but it will be a good little experiment at least.

you cant achieve 40% booze through fermentation, the yeast goes dormant or dies at those concentrations. you might get 12% at which point you could distill it, but probably not without someone noticing. you wont get methanol unless youre trying to ferment grass clippings or wood or something like that. if youre using fruit and sugar, you will be ok. the simpler the better really for booze making. forget the fruit, use pure sugar or honey, blast some brewers yeast in there, warm it up a bit and BAM! oh, and keep it in the dark for sure

why not just find a dollar in change in your couch and go to the liquor store and get a shooter?
I think champaign yeast is supposed to be a) fast b) high alchohol
You could probably get something drinkable in a week or so at like 6-8%
you need special yeast tho.
