Jamaica ginger extract, known as "Jake". During Prohibition in the United States, Jake was used as a substitute for alcohol as it contained 70-80% ethanol by weight. Due to alterations of the substance ordered by the U.S. Treasury Department, Jake users would often experience "Jake Legs", which resulted in the loss of use of the hands and feet.
