North Korea Claims to Have Invented Hangover Free Alcohol
|I bet this hangover free alcohol works as well as their supposed hydrogen bomb test:
North Korean scientists have invented a hangover-free alcohol, according to the Pyongyang Times.
The state newspaper says the “suave” liquor will spare you wincing when you wake, despite boasting 30%-40% alcohol.
The brew is reportedly made from a type of indigenous ginseng called insam and glutinous rice, and cultivated by an organic farming method.

From experience I can tell you that drinking any ginseng-based liquor is much easier on your system when you wake the next day so there may be some validity to this claim. The trick with drinking is to stick to one liquor and not mix to avoid hangovers. The only problem with that is that once your system is soaked in alcohol you will pretty much drink anything that’s handed to you. This is where people that drink get into problems.
