Abstract
With only one more weekend to get through until Dry January is officially over, we thought we'd tantalise the taste buds with an alcohol-themed Fun Friday Food Facts today!
- People drink more slowly when alcohol is served in straight sided glasses than when it’s served in glasses with curved sides, research has found
- Back in November, guests at an American ‘frat’ party drank so much booze that when the police turned up (due to noise complaints) the air registered a .01 on their breathalyzers
- Scotch whisky generates £135 of revenue every second. Yes! That's the figure. Scotland exports whisky at the rate of just under 2,500 bottles per minute!
- Did you know that the country with the world’s highest per-capita gin consumption is the Philippines, with an estimated 25 million cases consumed annually
- The top-selling cocktail in 2017, according to a survey of the world’s Top 50 bars, was the Old Fashioned – which is made with a sugar cube and Angostura bitters that are crushed and stirred with a large ice cube and bourbon.
