Maybe start with a 1:2 ratio of vodka to juice and experiment from there?
Doubting Drunkenness? Experiments to Ensue

I would measure an ounce of alcohol and try 2/3 ounces of juice. Depends on how stiff you like your drinks. If it were me I’d do 2oz vodka and .5oz juice and a few ice cubes. But I drink to get drunk.
This New Year's Eve was an especially eventful one for me. It was my very first alcoholic blackout. I started drinking Long Island Iced Teas and I remember finishing the 3rd one around 7:30 in the evening on December 31st and hoping the bartender wasn't gonna cut me off and would let me get a 4th drink. Then the next thing I knew I was waking up around 6 in the morning on January 1st in the hospital.

What landed you in the hospital? 
I guess I was just so completely hammered that people were concerned about me. I don't remember the trip to the hospital. When I came to I had an iv tube in my hand and it was wrapped up like crazy, although it wasn't actually hooked up to anything by then. They said I kept biting the iv tubing and that's why it was wrapped up so bad.
And I actually do have 1 piece of a memory from that night. It seems less like a memory and more like a dream though. I remember being sick and puking and I have this thing where sometimes when I'm feeling nauseated I stick my finger down my throat to just get everything up and be done with it. I remember repeatedly trying to do that and someone kept pulling my hand away from my mouth so I kept saying "But I wanna throw up!" Maybe that's actually what I was trying to do when they thought I was biting the iv tubes? 
After 3 drinks?
Glad you’re out now.
You have to remember to pace yourself. You don’t want to get too drunk too quickly. I see it like a long hike or trip. You can’t sprint a long hike. If you do you’ll be totally spent and can’t finish. Start slow and work it out.And I actually do have 1 piece of a memory from that night. It seems less like a memory and more like a dream though.

Also, glad to see you’re still with us.
Yeah, totally hear you on the Long Island iced teas… They are good for getting drunk.
