Can I get drunk by evaporating steam of alcohol?
If I boil a bit alcohol in a pot, can I get drunk by inhaling the evaporating mixture?
Does the steam of alcohol still include any alcohol?
Best Answer
Yes, you can. You can definitely become intoxicated, but this is not advised. When you drink alcohol, it is absorbed through the lining of your digestive system and passes through the bloodstream to reach your brain. This means that the alcohol will be buffered by the contents of your digestive system, getting you drunk more gradually. When inhaled, the alcohol is absorbed directly into the bloodstream through the lungs, so intoxication will happen much more quickly, not giving you time to "back off" if you think you've had too much.

Yes, you can become intoxicated by inhaling the vapor from heated alcohol mixtures.
They have bars set up now that do this. They put a tea candle under a round glass full of whatever you want to get completely "fire in your veins" blistered drunk.
