Learn English – What do you call a disgusting mixture you don’t want to drink

What do you call a drink (usually an alcoholic one, say a long drink or a cocktail) that you don't want to have, because you consider it a low quality, disgusting mixture, maybe even of suspicious, unclear origins?

Infamous drinks like the sponge (drops of shots spilled on the counter all night, then collected with a sponge, squeezed into a glass and sold to the undemanding, or some poor homeless guys) could be an example here. Or your friend's first, experimental cocktail… 🙂

Context:
I want to reject a drink that I don't like, so I reply humorously and a bit sarcastically:

No, thanks. I don't want any of this ____?
