you may want to check the label welcome
to watchmojo.com and for this list we'll
be looking at things that you really
wouldn't expect to find in alcoholic
beverages but are used to flavor a wide
variety of distinctive tipples
number 10 bacon you may think it's not
at all a natural fit but everyone's
favorite pork product has indeed been
introduced to numerous alcoholic
beverages including bourbon martinis and
Bloody Marys
there are also vegetarian options with
bacon adjacent flavorings but you can
even make real bacon infused drinks at
home cook several bacon strips put them
in a jar with say vodka and let it sit
for a while at room temperature extract
the bacon and put the alcohol in the
freezer once the bacon fat solidifies
strain it with a cheesecloth or coffee
filter shortly after break out the
glasses for a porky and delicious
beverage and hey why not use a bacon
slice as a swizzle stick while you're at
it
number 19 pizza who doesn't enjoy
washing down a slice of pizza with a
cold beer combining these two tastes
should be a no-brainer
but Tom C Firth stumbled upon the idea
almost by accident experimenting in his
garage C first toss some mint oregano
rosemary and sage into his homemade brew
when a taste tester pointed out that it
possessed a pizza flavor Seaford's
collaborated with brew master Mike Robin
ski to perfect the recipe throwing in
basil garlic and tomatoes C Firth's
pizza beer quickly gained media
attention and even made some decent
dough money that is Mamma Mia
Pizza beer never became the bestseller
that C Firth envisioned and ultimately
went to funked nevertheless the drink
had its 15 minutes of fame online and
the late night started getting teased by
Jay Leno number 8 artichokes we can
picture cucumbers and jalapenos going
well with an alcoholic beverage but
artichokes although it may sound
outlandish on paper artichokes are the
secret ingredient behind the Italian
bitter liquor scene are developed by
Angelo dalla moly
and currently owned by Campari group see
not hit the scene in 1952 a string of
commercial starring ernesto calendar ii
helped put the bottle on the map
complete with the catchy slogan c nod
against the attrition of modern life
while the recipe remains a secret we
know that this bitter sweet beverages
recipe includes 13 herbs and plants most
notably artichoke leaves the brand even
gets its title from sonorous cholermus
the artichokes botanical name number
seven yogurt many sources claim that
greek yogurt is one of the best things
to eat before drinking alcohol if you
want to prevent a hangover we doubt that
this is what they had in mind however
yoga Rito is an alcoholic beverage that
can be purchased at Japanese bars
restaurants and stores although it's
developed and bottled in Europe the
plain flavor is often mixed with
pineapple juice or orange juice but Yoga
Rito also comes with a strawberry flavor
as its name suggests this creamy drink
is indeed made from yogurt and tastes
like yogurt
according to distributors Suntory a
Suntory rep stressed though that it's
not yogurt adding we cannot say that
it's healthy so don't assume that it's a
nutritious substitute for your Greek
yogurt number 6 mares milk yogurt is far
from the strangest dairy product on this
list we've all heard the phrase I'm so
hungry I could eat a horse have you ever
been so thirsty that you could drink of
female horses milk though yeah we don't
see that expression catching on either
but mares milk is the fundamental
ingredient in kumis popular throughout
central asia
kumis stands out as the national drink
of Kyrgyzstan while kumis is technically
an alcoholic beverage
it actually has very little alcohol
somewhere between 0.7 and 2.5% the mares
milk meanwhile contains more lactose
than cow's milk by 40 percent and offers
a strong dose of vitamin C maybe that's
why kumis was the preferred beverage for
both Genghis Khan and Attila the Hun
number 5 snake
although it might sound like something
that would be brewed in Halloweentown
eels lizards and spiders have all been
used to produce liquor as far as the
animal kingdom goes there isn't a
stranger ingredient than snakes snake
whisky can be traced back to the Western
Zhu Dynasty in ancient China and has
since gained popularity across Asia it's
hard to miss this drink sitting on a
shelf seeing how it literally has a
snake or Cobra in the bottle rice wine
or sake is used to drown the snakes in
the bottle which sits for a few months
until the liquor develops its signature
kick even if you're not adventurous
enough to try a glass it certainly makes
for a great photo-op
number 4 stale bread just because bread
is past it's expiration date doesn't
mean you need to chuck it in the trash I
must eat moldy bread prominent in Russia
kvass is a fermented beverage made with
stale rye bread cubes kvass became
widespread during the Middle Ages among
Eastern European peasants people of
lower status actually drank vos more
often than water as it was thought to be
safer due to a lower chance of
contamination along with bread and yeast
honey raisins and fruit can also be
added to give the drink some extra zing
who knew that something so stale could
produce something so refreshing
despite being regarded as a
non-alcoholic drink by some countries
kvass is usually around a 0.5 to one
percent alcohol number 3 chewed corn
typically when someone spits in another
person's drink it's meant as a way to
get back at them chicha is a rare
exception well there's more than one way
to prepare this corn beer we're focusing
on an old fashioned method linked to
ancient Peru a little bit of saliva in
there in the looks of it yours is a big
goober right there in a nutshell or
perhaps we should say in a corn husk
maize is chewed and then spat out which
is then followed by fermentation
although this method dates back to
ancient times it's still practiced at
modern distilleries like dogfish Head
and may sound like an unsanitary
tradition to keep alive but dogfish
founder Sam Callaghan
yone explained quote ancient Brewers
through trial-and-error learned that the
natural enzymes in saliva would convert
the starch in corn into sugar so it
would ferment number two a human toe
under normal circumstances we'd suggest
calling the health inspector or at least
asking for a refund if there's a toe in
your drink when somebody orders a sour
toe cocktail in northern Canada though
they can't exactly claim false
advertising some believe that this
cocktail stems back to the Prohibition
era when Louis Lincoln accidentally
froze his right foot Louie's brother
otto was forced to amputate his toe
which was preserved in a jar of alcohol
that captain dick Stevenson found in
1973
$500 time Stevenson thus invented the
sour toe cocktail Club which has a
single role to gain membership you can
drink it fast you can drink it slow but
your lips must touch that gnarly toe we
guess when life gives you a severed toe

we're not crazy and this isn't something
out of a gross out comedy tongfu is a
very real beverage and it consists of
human fecal matter
more specifically it's made from a human
child's fecal matter the drink is about
9 percent alcohol and we honestly don't
want to think about the other 91% this
korean rice wine or feces wine as it's
also called was supposedly used for
treating bruises bone fractures and
epilepsy in ancient korea unsurprisingly
home school isn't all that common
anymore with the tradition apparently
dying out around the 1960s that's not to
say it was entirely abandoned as some
diehard stilt out its efficacy and
lament the traditions laps are covered
in joy some might find it bizarre but
one child's poop is another person's
treasure do you agree with our picks
