The Demystification of Purple Drank
|[tps_title]Imitation Drugs[/tps_title]
If you have the dough, you obviously need the real deal, especially when it comes to Purple Drank. And if you want in on the hip-hop lifestyle and hang out with the cool crowd, then you need the cough syrup that’s stated on the recipe. Of course, other people have come up with their own versions. The main culprit of choice is called DXM or dextromethorphan. DXM is a chemical cousin to codeine, but it doesn’t have the pain relieving and addictive properties. It’s also similar to hallucinogens such as ketamine or PCP.
If you’re trying to come up with your very own mixture of Purple Drank, but are using Robitussin DM instead, what you have is actually a different kind of syrup called “Robotripping.” It also doesn’t have that purple shade that many of the users have come to love.
Still, whether you’re Robotripping or you’re using the genuine stuff, it’s time to stop hating. You’re on a high, which is what matters most. And you’re all on the highway to your death, which seems to matter less to you.
