Hey, do you remember back in the day when your friends got blitzed and you spent hours pouring black coffee down them in the hopes that they would sober up enough that you could take them home without their parents noticing that:

A. They smelled like a sleazy bar

B. They talked oddly

C. They were walking like a Steve Martin Saturday night live skit…

Surely I am not the only one with a lurid past?

Anyway. In this new age of cocaine based patches (yep, my husband wears one for pain management, who knew?), microwave popcorn, cell phones, and macaroni and cheese in a box you can also have your black coffee with your booze. You can get drunk AND sober up at the same time!

Well, you can almost have it. It is being released this summer in Italy and in 2009 in the rest of the world. Campari will be distributing the drink. Read more about Illyquore here.
