What Exactly Is BORG, The Popular College Students' Drink Of Choice?

In the context of current college drinking culture, BORG stands for "blackout rage gallon." What sets it apart from other drinks is its container: a personal 1-gallon plastic jug.
The massive mixed drink is made with about half a gallon of water, liquor (usually vodka), and beverage flavorings or electrolyte powders like Liquid IV.
The BORG's portability is a plus for tailgates and outdoor day parties and also allows college students to avoid potentially spiked communal beverages like punch.
However, BORGS can encourage binge drinking, which is bad for your health and can even potentially be dangerous, so be sure to make and drink your BORG responsibly.
