This simultaneously piques my curiosity and makes my stomach turn. The Dutch supplier is hoping to have the drink on UK shelves before Christmas.
What will they think of next?? (...and how long until they start reporting on the negative health effects?)

It says it does not contain the highly addictive drug nicotine, but a potent mix of roots from South African plants, which has been used since the 14th century by bushmen.
The bushmen would chew the concoction of leaves to achieve a high, but the producers of Liquid Smoking distilled the mix into an oil for their drink.
United Drinks and Beauty Corporation hopes to follow Red Bull and have the product sold in pubs and bars as a mixer with spirits such as vodka.
It has less than 21 calories per 275ml can and would cost £1.50 in shops and £2 in bars and pubs.

Fast forward to the future:
New studies have found a link to the new strain of aggressive cancer that has wiped off half the earth's smoking population to the Liquid Smoking drink that was said to be a healthier alternative to smoking. Turns out lung cancer and emphysema was a better deal.

I don't know you guys.
I never smoked a cig in my life.
I think its a decent idea. No more smoke, an addictive beverage that tastse good, and has other ingrediates apaprently good for you.
Atleast its an improvement from those death sticks people loved inhaling. - 3 years ago

Wonder how many calories and, since it's fruity, if it contains vitamin C, too??
They need to mix this stuff with alcohol and red bull. The human race would LOVE that!

This is so disgusting, you couldn't drink that without expecting it to taste like a wet ash tray.
And how does it manage to give the same buzz without nicotine?

Interesting, I wonder if they will market it as a way to quit as well? The name is gross though, but the can design is genius.

'Liquid smoking'? This just conjures up images of cigarette ash floating in cans of old beer. Ugh, sounds gross. I feel sorry for anyone who feels they need it.

Great story. I hope this will become available in the USA soon, I and countless others would "try" it. Sounds like a good way to deliver nicotine, although I AM going to look into all the aspects of delivery by drinking. This is a cool site by the way, I just joined today, and hope to make this place a favorite. PEACE

The company I work for has aquired some liquid smoke plants throughout the midwest... I've heard of guys that have had to visit the sites and everyone there tells you not to EVER wear leather at this place, cuz the smell is so horrible, itll seep into your clothes and ruin them forever. So you basically got to buy clothes for the day and throw them out at night, and you might as well throw out your luggage too. lol
oh yeah, smoking sucks.

For a brief minute I thought it would be an open bottle with cigarette butts in it. I'm curious as to what makes it a replacement, does it still contain nicotine? If so will it be regulated in the same way?
