purple drank is a drink that is made using promethazine/codeine syrup cough medicine mixed with sprite and/or lollies to sweeten the drink. purple drank has many other names including “sizzurps”, “dirty sprite” or “lean”. when sipped the drink gives the user a sedated, “high” feeling. purple drank is often used in conjunction with alcohol or weed to enhance both effects.

purple drank was popularized by western hip hop music where it is frequently mentioned in many songs.

purple drank is an illegal recreational drink popular in the southern united states rap community, whose main ingredients originally consisted of prescription strength cough syrup, containing codeine and promethazine, and either a carbonated soft drink (generally sprite) or fruit juice. the purple-ish hue of purple drank comes from the dyes in the cough syrup. recently, the term has expanded to cover mixtures including over-the-counter cough syrup and vodka in place of prescription cough syrup. other terms for purple drank include barre, oil, purple tonic, lean (or southern lean,) drank, and syrup (which is sometimes slangly pr-nounced as sizzurp.)

the active ingredient of purple drank is codeine, an opiate medication contained in prescription strength cough syrups due to its ant-tussive properties. some prescription cough syrups also contain anti-histamine medications, such as promethazine, which have a mild sedative effect. when taken in large quant-ties, both medications can lead to sedation and altered levels of consciousness.

houston producer dj screw first popularized the concoction, which is widely attributed as a source of inspiration for the “chopped & screwed” style of hip hop music. originally, the active ingredient of “syrup” was cough syrup containing promethazine and codeine. the concoction first gained popularity in the underground houston, texas rap scene and later spread to other southern states.

purple drank is a intoxicating beverage also known by the names lean, sizzurp, and liquid codeine. it is commonly abused by southern rappers and wannabe suburban teenagers. it is a mixture of promethazine/codeine cough syrup and sprite, with a few jolly ranchers and/or skittles thrown in. promethazine with codeine, consumed in such large amounts as is popular with such southern rappers as lil wayne, slim thug, and big moe, produces an opiate-like high that is potentiated by the promethazine. promethazine by itself will not produce a high. the beverage must be sipped slowly, and not guzzled, in order to avoid unconciousness and/or life threatening overdose.

purple drank must be served in a styrofoam cup, otherwise it will not be considered purple drank by the majority of the purple drank abusing community.

purple drank is not:
-any syrup containing dextromethorphan
-hydrocodone with promethazine
-any syrup containing any drug ingredient other than promethazine and codeine.
-liquid codeine. purple drank is codeine dissolved in syrup. the codeine molecules are not actually in the liquid phase.
my cup is filled with tha purple drank
a recreational leaning drink- an alternative to illegal drugs in pure form- that is common in parties and originated in the south.

it generally consists of around two fluid ounces of promethazine/codeine cough syrup, 8 or more ounces of lemon-lime soda (sprite, sierra mist, 7up, mountain dew, fresca, etc), and jolly ranchers for flavor. it is called ‘purple drank’ for a) the purple color that the dye in the syrup gives it, and b) the southern pr-nunciation of the word ‘drink’.

it was created around the time when chopped & screwed rap music hit the scene, where the drink went well with the music considering it induced a similar ‘slow’ and ‘leaning’ feeling in the consumer. the beverage until recently, however, did not become popular on a wider scale, and originally was almost completely limited and known (for that matter) to the southern regions of the usa.

purple drank has more street names, the most popular being lean and sizzurp.
