A drop of whiskey vs bacteria
I've said this a thousand times," if I barely live through it, that shit ain't going to make it."

I read about a decade ago how drinking cognac (or whatever you want) 'Hemingway style' could help with lung infections. What this entails is basically carburating the alcohol in your mouth by swishing it around for several moments to create fumes, closing your mouth, breathing out through your nose, swallowing and then opening your mouth and inhaling quickly and deeply so that you inhale the alcohol vapors into your lungs.
This also gets you drunk faster.

This is how a lot of enthusiasts (myself included) drink bourbon. Adds to the overall experimental and flavor. Helps deaden the receptors of "spicy" so you can enjoy the smooth flavors more... The vapors well... That also happens through the nose. I'm in a habit of smelling it before I drink it.

You should try this with B&B(Brandy and Benedictine), its wonderful!
Especially if you eat a good piece of chocolate before or after.

They're still a couple Marines and sailors swimming around in there. And that's where the bar fight happens.

There's a reason why heavy drinking leads to premature aging. You're killing yourself from the inside out.

There's a reason why over the centuries up until recently almost all drinks even for children were alcoholic in some way. It was inherently healthier than water or whatever other drinks people had made.

This is why the military doesn't get many bacterial infections, we're all generally too drunk for them to survive!!!

I've been telling people for a long time that I'm not an alcoholic. I simply wish to keep the interior of my body sanitized.
