I have been doing some research on what the world’s strongest alcohol on the market is and i was gob smacked to find out that there is an alcohol that is 190 Proof, OMG!!! Surely this can not be drank? I recently did a post on Absinthe which i absolutely slated as i think it tastes vile but that’s nothing at only 55% alcohol!
It comes to no surprise that Everclear has been outlawed in many places now as it has actually caused death!!! To be fair the guy who died from Everclear did drink 22 shots and his friend had 21 and ended up in come to awake after 1 week with severe liver damage and blind in one eye and another student drank 15 and died. I wouldn’t even sample 1 shot of this stuff never mind 22 and i hope this will put people off ever wanting to try Everclear.
The liquor is meant to be classified as vodka but i would say its more like paint stripper. This stuff must destroy your insides and i would not like to imagine the pain you must feel when it hits the back of your throat. Reports state that when you have a shot you will have an instant coughing fit and hit the ground immediately.
If you were to survive this alcohol i hate to think of the horrendous hangover that you will suffer from in the morning!
Please, please, please let me know if you have ever tasted Everclear???
This really is Killer stuff!!!!!!!!!!!!

I attempted to write a post yesterday but my hangover got the better of me and eating chocolate all day was much more appealing than trying to work a computer!
As you can see from my last post i was pretty excited for the weekend and drinking Sex On The Beach cocktails!!! So as planned we started off with the cocktails and then headed to a curry house and drank white wine, note-to-self never ask for house white wine in a curry house as it arrives in a fish bowl with no label and looks likes a urine sample from the doctors and funnily enough tastes like one!!!
Anyway less of that…The night was going well until it come to drinking shots time, Sambuka shots yes, Absinthe shots big NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
My first experience with Absinthe was when i was 18 and sat in bar, i had my cocky head on and believed that i could drink anything, i mean it couldn’t be much stronger than my blue WKD that i was drinking! Ok that’s what i thought at the time and o how wrong i was! I knocked the shot back in one and the next thing i know i was leaning over the bar struggerling to breathe and violently being sick, all that in the space of 5 seconds! Classy! Since my ever so embarrassing experience i have purposely stayed clear of Absinthe on a night out and have no intensions of ever drinking the dreaded poison again!
That’s why on Saturday when my mates got a round of Absinthe in i proudly rejected and watched in horror as they downed there shot. There faces said it all when they finished and so did there behaviour, if you want to pull your crazy ex who will not leave you alone, who you have been trying to avoid for months then Absinthe will make you think there Megan Fox and you will be straight in there arms again…well until the alcohol is out of your blood stream, that’s what happened to one of the guys i was out with on Saturday and another one spent the rest of the night lay on a bathroom floor with there head in the toilet, nice!!!
So if you want my opinion i think your bloody crazy if you drink Absinthe and if you have never tried it before don’t try now as you are not missing out! I love shots like Sambuka, Tequila and After Shock and these are all pretty harsh but they taste like water compared to Absinthe.
If you have had any bad experience with Absinthe let us know?????
