As someone who has successfully cut down their alcohol intake this is cringe supreme for me.

tell me how these weren't designed to give alcoholics plausible deniability lol
those are actually kinda good tho
Oh, I thought they were designed to give alcoholics heart attacks
Naw, the industry basically self-regulated itself out of mixing alcohol and caffeine after all the Four Loko incidents. The labeling is just for brand loyalists or something now, idk
The people drinking vodka Red Bulls do be persisting
I'm sorry, you don't know what an alcohol buzz feels like? I'm caling bullshit on this one.
Or what alcohol tastes like.
It's not easy to tell the difference between a can of kombucha and a can of thc sparkling juice at first glance either. Both have similar designs.
I can't tell if you're being serious or if you're leaning into the joke bc here in america they take all of the alcohol out of kombucha so both drinks would be intoxicating anywhere else
Yes almost all the alcohol is removed from kombucha so it is not intoxicating.

Ain't no open container laws when you're drinkin' claws.
Trevor?!
If a 12 oz can at 5% ABV once per day makes you feel liver pain, there's probably something wrong with your liver, and maybe the drinking life isn't for you.
It's fine, I'll just take more Tylenol to deal with the pain.
Just drink Painquil! It's acetaminophen, and it's 10% alcohol! The old liver double whammy.
If God was real, PainQuil would be morphine and blue raspberry instead of black cherry
If the devil was real, it would be anise and krokodil.

Oh no
I miss feeling things
For the non-Americans in the audience, what is White Claws?
A can of carbonated water with a shot of vodka in it.
Just as much flavour as a typical flavoured carbonated water too
Just to clarify at least original White Claw gets its alcohol from fermented sugar. It’s basically a gluten free clear beer with no hops and fruit flavor added.
High Noon and anything labeled Vodka soda use actual distilled spirit. Those are more expensive and taste better, especially after a few.

I did the same almost, bought weird new energy drinks, was about to drink one at work, looked at the can better, 5,5% alcohol. Whoops.
Drank it on the drive home instead, naturally
Why the fuck are you drinking alcohol and driving?
Insane that you're getting downvoted for this. I feel like alcohol abuse is so normalised in a lot of places. This really shouldn't be a controversial comment.

If god didn't want us to drink and drive then why'd he invent those nifty beer can hats?
Don't even have to stop driving to top up. I couldn't find a picture for the one I've seen with bait, liquor, and ammo sold in the drivethru.

All the arguments below, but I'm pretty sure it was a joke. He's drinking it on the way home instead of the way to work. I laughed.

In the 19th century all kinds of “snake oil” mixtures were sold as pain killers and energy tonics. The vast majority were just something suspended in alcohol. Alcohol dulls pain and makes you feel a rush of euphoria. So people thought it was “medicine.”
It continues to this day. My wife was convinced that a certain kombucha was benefitting her gut microbiome in some profound way because it made her feel so great to drink it. Turns out the brand got in trouble - their process was letting through 1.5-2% alcohol (yes my wife is a lightweight).

Never been ID’ed for an energy drink.
I never got ID'd buying Sparks (basically four loko before four loko was cool). The places I went that had it, stocked it with the RedBull and it only says it has alcohol in it in the smallest of print. I was getting that shit when I was still just 18.
