Borgs Drink Trend Just Got Juicier with Grape Vodka
If you've scrolled through TikTok or attended any college party lately, you've probably heard of the viral sensation known as the borgs drink. Short for Blackout Rage Gallon, borgs are a party staple—a creative mix of water, alcohol, electrolytes, and flavoring, all combined in a personal gallon jug. While the base concept is simple, the flavors are what make each borg unique. And one flavor combo that's making waves right now? Grape vodka.
What Is a Borgs Drink?
A borgs drink is a customizable gallon-sized cocktail designed to balance fun and hydration. It usually includes:
-
Vodka
-
Water (to help with hydration)
-
Electrolyte powder or drink
-
Flavor enhancer (liquid or powder, like Mio or Crystal Light)
The magic of the borg lies in its flexibility—each person can decide how strong, how sweet, and how flavorful they want their drink to be. Plus, naming your borg jug something clever (like “Borg to be Wild” or “The Grapeful Dead”) is half the fun.
Why Grape Vodka?
Adding grape vodka to your borg gives it a nostalgic and fruity punch, like grown-up grape Kool-Aid. It's a flavor that's both familiar and fun, with just the right mix of sweet and tart. Grape vodka blends effortlessly with berry or citrus flavor enhancers and makes your borg not just drinkable—but craveable.
It also masks the taste of alcohol better than many other flavors, making it a hit for anyone who prefers their drinks smooth and fruity.
