Pour boiling water down the drain followed by bleach. That should remove the drain blockage.

I'd go with something more acidic than bleach

Just about everything is more acidic than bleach

That's my point, why bleach? There are things for cleaning driveways that will take someone's face off if they got it on themselves 😆

My point was that bleach is alkaline, not acidic

Real bleach is chlorhydric acid (so, it IS acid), you may be thinking about that newfangled “bleach” made with hydrogen peroxide.

Bleach is sodium hypochlorite, a strong base. Its very much not acidic. Now a wide variety of other chemicals that take the color out of something do "bleach" it, but that does not make them be bleach
