Note that this is the banned version. After drinking 2 cans of the old recipe it starts getting scary. I dont even want to think about 3, it might not kill you but it definitely could.
Shane SRAM Yea on Blood pressure meds now. After drinking them for so long i avg 5-6 cans of loko with 2 cans of redbull/monster every night. Might not make it to 40 bud
This is probably my favorite Rocketboom episode so far. I just couldn't stop laughing. We all love Molly and seeing her let go a little, was more that mildly entertaining.
Oh Molly, it's been hardly two months since you are 21 and you are already performing this mischievous experiment :-) It was so cute and hilarious :-) Thank you Molly that you were brave enough to sacrifice your sober mind and health to show us this scientific approach to alcoholic beverages :-)
Wow thats strong stuff. We got something called "Relentless" here in the UK which is supposedly quite twitch provoking, but that Four Loko drink looks like it takes it to the next level lol
You ask what alcohol is in the drink: ethanol. Also known as ethyl alcohol, the alcohol with a hydroxl group bonded to two carbons. Any alcoholic drink has this chemical, other alcohols like methanol or propanol are more toxic. If you are asking what alcoholic beverage is in it (as in Whiskey, Beer, wine, or tequila) the alcohol is fourloko comes from "malt", beer that has been brewed to be as flavorless as possible so they can add in fruit flavor.
@RedJoker I know. But it is all about the signals that it sends. A regular bottle of vodka sends far different signals to the consumer than a bottle of alcopop. By making bottles look like something that we are used to, it sends a stronger "its ok to drink" signal (in this case to younger people).
I was gonna thumb this up anyway, for science. But then I double-tapped it at 1:48. If you don't thumb this up for posh-pinky-finger-while-drinking-Premium-Malt-Beverage, then you are dead inside.
It was dumb of them to ban the drink; it's consumer responsibility to drink wisely. Thankfully, They're putting four loko back on the shelves now that they reduced the caffeiene. Might I say, this video is adorable!
