cherry syrup, cherry flavoring plus simple syrup, cherry juice and simple syrup, frozen cherry juice concentrate (undiluted), liquid from a jar of Maraschino cherries, hard cherry sugar candies (e.g., lifesavers) dissolved in boiling water and liquid reduced to a syrup

There should not be strychnine in mescal, as it is a toxic substance not typically associated with this alcoholic beverage. Mescal is a distilled alcoholic drink made from agave plants and should not contain harmful additives like strychnine.

Yes, the process is known as Distillation. Works on the property that Alcohol (ethanol) and Water have different boiling points. Water boils at 100 C and Alcohol at about 60-70 C. Heating above 70 but below 95 will vaporise the alcohol, leaving Water.

Any kind of carbohydrate can be fermented into alcohol, but this happens only under certain conditions that are favorable for the growth of yeast; Twinkies still in their wrapper would never turn into alcohol.

Yes, there are alcohols that are considered scentless, such as ethanol or isopropyl alcohol. These alcohols can be used for various purposes, including as a solvent or in disinfectants, where the scent is often removed or masked.

The normal price was about 50 - 75 cents. Happy hour prices could go as low as a nickel

Most likely, yes. From our experience, there are sulfites in both lemon juice and lime juice if its from concentrate.

If you make your margarita from scratch, and use fresh lemons and limes, you should be okay. If you get it from a mix or a bar, most likely, it will contain sulfites.

On average, a human body can metabolize about 0.5 to 1 ounce of alcohol per hour. This rate can vary based on factors like weight, gender, and overall health. Drinking more than this can result in a higher blood alcohol concentration.

The main flavoring ingredient in absinthe is Artemisia Absinthium, commonly called Wormwood. Present in Wormwood is the chemical, alpha-thujone, which is toxic and has a similar molecular geometry to THC, the active ingredient in cannabis. Thus, absinthe is most likely illegal in the United States because it contains alpha-thujone. --Deb This is from the Nation Institute of Health (NIH.gov: Facts about thujone) site linked to the left of this answer:
"Regulatory Status: No standards or guidelines have been set by NIOSH or OSHA for occupational exposure to or workplace allowable levels of alpha-thujone. Thujone was not on the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) list of compounds for which recommendations for a threshold limit value (TLV) or biological exposure index (BEI) are made. Thujone is potentially toxic and the presence of alpha- and beta-thujone in food and beverages is regulated by law in several countries (Micali & Lanuzza, 1995). The use of thujone as a food additive has been banned in the United States (Rogers, 1981; Galli et al., 1984). The natural flavoring substances wormwood, white cedar, and oak moss may be used in food under the condition that the finished food is thujone-free. Tansy may only be used in alcoholic beverages provided that the finished product is thujone-free, and yarrow use is specified as beverages only, thujone-free (FDA, 1997b).
In 1979, the FAO/WHO Codex Committee on Food additives restricted the use of apha- and beta-thujones to the following maximum levels in final products ready for consumption: 0.5 ppm in food and beverages, 10 ppm in alcoholic beverages containing more than 25% alcohol, 5 ppm in alcoholic beverages containing less than 25% alcohol, and 35 ppm in bitters (Galli et al., 1984)."

Yes, it is recommended to refrigerate mudslides with alcohol after opening to maintain their quality and prevent spoilage. Refrigeration can help preserve the flavors and prevent the mixture from going bad. Remember to check the label for any specific instructions provided by the manufacturer.

The pH of sake drink typically ranges from 3.5 to 4.0, which makes it slightly acidic. This acidity level contributes to the overall flavor profile of sake, balancing its sweetness and enhancing its umami notes.

Yes, alcohol can have isotopes. Isotopes are variations of elements that have the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons. Different isotopes of alcohol may have slightly different chemical properties but have the same basic structure.

It is highly variable from time and place but tends to be about 5%.

No, wine does not contain embalming fluid. Embalming fluid typically contains formaldehyde, which is not an ingredient in wine.

Alcohol is used to clean wounds, and to remove ink and other materials not soluble in water. Alcohol can also be used as a fuel additive or as fuel. Alcohol is also used in spirit lamps and in spirit levels. It is also colored and used in thermometers in place of mercury.

Gin is not a pure substance but a mixture. It is typically made by distilling a combination of botanicals, most commonly including juniper berries, along with other herbs and spices, with ethanol. As a result, gin contains a variety of different molecules that contribute to its flavor and aroma.

Yes, wine typically has more acidity than scotch. Wine is made from fermenting grape juice, which naturally contains higher levels of acid compared to distilled spirits like scotch. The acidity in wine contributes to its crispness and tartness, while scotch tends to have a smoother flavor profile.

If a child accidentally ingests denatured alcohol, seek immediate medical help by calling poison control or emergency services. Do not induce vomiting unless instructed by medical professionals. Keep the child calm and monitor them closely until help arrives.

You can convert a secondary alcohol to a primary alcohol by oxidizing the secondary alcohol using a strong oxidizing agent such as potassium permanganate (KMnO4) or chromium trioxide (CrO3) in acidic conditions. This reaction will cleave the carbon-carbon bond next to the hydroxyl group, forming a ketone intermediate, which can then be further oxidized to a primary alcohol.

Both regular and 'lite' beer has 11 mg of sodium per 12 oz serving

A "fifth" of 1/5 of a gallon (imperial) equals 750ml or 25.4 ounces. However, the definition of a "shot" can vary depending on where you are. For example, in the United States a shot is generally 1.5 ounces.

Gunpowder is a mixture and so does not have a chemical formula.

White spirit can mean a couple of different things.

It's a group name for clear, transparent alcohols for human consumption. Vodka, Gin, Rum etc.
