Tomorrow I'm going to a party and I have a liter of Everclear (190 proof). I'm planning on mixing it with bottles of lemonade (20 oz). How much everclear should I put in the lemonade bottles??

depending on how drunk you want to get...one to two ounces

The optimal alcohol percentage for a cocktail is 12%.
If you put 1/3 of a cup of Everclear in the bottle, and fill it with lemonade to where it was before, you should get a 12.6% alcoholic beverage. I double-checked the math. In a 20 ounce beverage, if 1/3-cup of it is Everclear (95% alcohol), then the drink should have an alcohol content of 12.6%.
Take a 20 ounce lemonade bottle and pour out 1/3 cup into a measuring cup. Dump that lemonade into a container for later. Fill the measuring cup with 1/3 cup of Everclear. Pour it into the bottle with the lemonade.
That 1-Liter bottle should make 12 20-oz. lemonades.
(Sounds good since they come in 6 packs.) You're going to have about 33 ounces of dumped-out lemonade when you get done, if my calculations are right.

If you mix it with Kool-Aid and make a punch it isn't too *** kicking. But Everclear is crazy so mix the parts well. Like 4 parts Kool-Aid to 1 part Everclear unless you want a lot of belligerent drunks.

It's your personal preference. I would not recommend anything more than 1 oz. (one shotglass) per 20 oz. bottle.
"But I can't taste the booze," you'll say. Exactly. That's b/c the taste of everclear is masked by the lemonade. Way to easy to overdo it.

Be very careful with Everclear. Too much and you'll have everyone on their faces clinging to the grass, or carpet, to keep from falling off the earth.

One shot will be more than enough. Keep in mind that is equal to over 2 shots of anything like Beam, Bacardi Gold, Vodka ect, so 1 will be fine.

you can do any thing from 1 oz to 50% , 1 oz makes for a regular strength drink where as 50% will mean you'll be cleaning vomit the next morning
