Brief Answer:
HIV virus would not survive the alcohol
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
HIV virus cannot survive in the alcohol. When you say country liquor it has more formaldehyde which is even dangerous for the HIV to survive.
HIV virus cannot survive an environment outside human body fluids. So juices would not contain an active HIV virus. Most juices made on streets have sugar or lemon juice in them which is not safe for HIV to survive.
It is even more dangerous to have such liquor by a human. So I suggest to refrain from such habits in future.
Hope I made it clear.
