poteen

Irish illegal drink brewwed in the mountains. One sip and you will feel it travel through your blood stream. Don't mess with this stuff as many people ahve died from it. The stuff they sell legally isn't the real deal. With the real stuff you drink water the next morning and you are not hungover... you are drunk again... Weird...

I had a sip of poteen last night. I was hammered. The next morning I drank some water and I was totally drunk again! Crazy stuff!

Think you can handle Poitín... ?
Don't drink Poitín if you're a light weight, it'll probably kill you!
