Methadone is added to juice (usually Tang instant Orange Juice, at least here in Canada anyway) for one simple reason: It's next to impossible to inject enough methadone to get high when it is diluted to 1mg per mL of liquid. Furthermore, the sugar in the Tang makes it just as hard to cook the juice down enough to get an amount reasonable for IV/IM/SC injection. The sugar turns the juice to sludge as it is boiled down. I know some people claim to have techniques for separating their methadone from the tang or somehow boiling it down without turning it to sludge, but I have never witnessed one personally. There are some people who trick their pharmacies into believing that they don't eat sugar for some reason in order to get sugar-free methadone and thereby allowing them to cook it down for injection a lot easier. I hope this answers your question!

there is no need for the drink to be orange or orange flavored. i used to put it in cola. the thing is, the vast majority of people perceive methadone as foul-tasting, a drink with a strong flavor dilutes and covers the bitterness and improves the chances of holding it down. however, the few that do not perceive it as foul-tasting do not have a problem taking it neat, and i often do if there's no drink available.

Why does it look like ink is in your liquid methadone?

I don't know what methadone your taking but Methadone usually comes in clear or a pinkish, purple color. At some clinics, they mix juice in with the clear methadone. If you are taking a colored methadone, it is likely either juice from the clinic, or a sugar mixture for flavoring because methadone is very bad tasting. Methadone will taste bad even with strong juice mixed in.
