Powdered Alcohol

[peter991]

Have you ever struggled home with a carton of beer? Heavy stuff a carton. Imagine if all the water was taken out how much a carton of beer would weigh? Even empties are heavy.

But wait! Powdered alchol is now available.

Dutch students have invented powdered alcohol which they say can be sold legally to minors.

The latest innovation in inebriation, called Booz2Go, is available in 20-gramme packets that cost a euro to a euro and a half (44 to 66 baht).

Top it up with water and you have a bubbly, lime-coloured and flavoured drink with just three per cent alcohol content.

"We are aiming for the youth market. They are really more into it because you can compare it with Bacardi-mixed drinks," 20-year-old Harm van Elderen told Reuters.

Van Elderen and four classmates at Helicon Vocational Institute, about an hour's drive from Amsterdam, came up with the idea as part of their final-year project.

"Because the alcohol is not in liquid form, we can sell it to people below 16," said project member Martyn van Nierop.

The legal age for drinking alcohol and smoking is 16 in the Netherlands.

The students said companies interested in making the product commercially could avoid taxes because the alcohol was in powder form. A number of companies are interested, they said.
