You've heard about moonshine during Prohibition...
But what about: Sudan's date-gin brewers thrive despite Sharia
Three Sudanese men sit on the edge of a bed and watch intently as a clear spirit glugs into a four-litre container.
"A little more - it's not quite at the top," one of them instructs the sisters who are pouring the illegal date-gin known as "araqi".

As many of you know, wines are often not vegan, due to disgusting animal-based filtration agents such as fish bladders. Here's a guide to shopping for vegan wine at Aldi:
Vegan Wines at ALDI
We have established that #ALDI #UK has an incredible selection of #vegan #wines. How about ALDI #US? Well, the selection at ALDI US isn’t as wide. I looked up all the wines listed on the ALDI US website on Barnivore.com (an amazing resource for checking if #alcohol is vegan) and I could only confirm one red #wine on offer is vegan.
That doesn’t mean that there are no other vegan wines at ALDI US – it just means we cannot confirm if any of the other wines are also vegan.

The story - aside from 1 million COVID cases yesterday in the U.S.- is about to break the Internet, already circling late-night TV (Colbert, e.g.) From The Atlantic:
You Have No Idea How Hard It Is to Get a Hamster Drunk
The best-drinking animals on earth: Hamsters.
And you thought they were only cute! They'll out-drink the best.
Please don't try to out-drink your hamster! #StaySafe
Absinthe
In Christmas colors, red & green. This is a store window in Prague (2005), image retrieved now due to an absinthe discussion!
Re-posting "here" rather than in the comments of a pora* thread, so the image can be easily viewed a bit larger.
Interesting beverages to be found across the planet. Absinthe is not common in the U.S. but (I'm told) can now be imported legally.
Some of the other drinks, not so much (opium or cannabis based, for example, no no's) But absinthe sure is pretty.
(And - I'm told - powerful.)
Prague is one of my favorite cities, and one of the most beautiful cities anywhere. No longer a massive collection on #GooglePlus,
I do have a very large collection online (free, commercial and spyware free), where you can see many images - @ http://www.fenichel.com/prague
