The Drinking Rules
Contestants have been limited to two drinks an hour since the 2017 season.
Prior to that, Chris Bukowski revealed he drank before he ate while filming the 2015 season. “In Paradise, it’s always 5 o’clock,” he told Flare magazine at the time. “I woke up in the morning and I had a glass of vodka soda — actually two — before I went down to the house. I didn’t eat anything. There’s not much to do.”
According to Dean and Caelynn Miller-Keyes, the drink rule doesn’t affect consumption too much.
“They’ve got a little binder with your picture in it. Every time you get served a drink, they do a little tick mark in it and then every hour it resets,” Dean told Us. “I remember there were ways to, like, not cheat the system, but just kind of get the most out of the experience.”
“Get two drinks at 2:55 and then get two more drinks right at 3,” Caelynn noted.
