A new British bar fills its air with a mist of alcohol and aromatics:
For the past six years, Bompas and Harry Parr have been working with scientists to perfect getting drunk on vapor. They recently opened a pop-up in London where you can—you guessed it—inhale your intoxicant.
...
As they enter, imbibers don a plastic poncho and enter a misting chamber. Bompas & Parr's mixture isn't a gin and tonic, really. It's a mix of gin—alcohol, water, and aromatic molecules from botanicals like juniper—and a bit of quinine, the bitter part of tonic water. (Tonic's other ingredients didn't make the cut—sugar's too sticky and citrus had, Bompas says, too many allergens.) As bar-goers lounge about, they're encouraged to breathe deeply, drawing in the smoky taste of the frankincense-infused gin.The air inside Alcoholic Architecture is at 140 percent humidity; the booze droplets waft around in a dense fog. Visibility is less than three feet. "It's a little like a masquerade," Bompas says. "It's also great for hooking up."
