What's the strangest booze you ever drank?

[baboon]

Green Chartruse actually one of my favorite intoxicants.

Amarula made frome the fruit that elephant & baboons get blotto on!

 

[oohrah]

Bermuda Gold - made from the loquat, and famous in Bermuda's Swizzler (1, 2, 3, floor).

I’ve had a few pisco sours while working in Peru. That’s a different cocktail for sure in taste & buzz.

When I was stationed in Germany back in the day there was a liquor called Ratzeputz. To the GIs it was know as ROCTOPUSS and it was a right of initiation when on your first night downtown you were expected to have a shot. It's 58% alcohol so 116 proof and was sometimes served in a flaming shot glass. It was the most disgusting liquor I ever drank in my life. A cross between the nastiest medicine you ever tasted and Sterno camping fuel. Worst part was it took like 5 beers just to get the taste out of your mouth.
Ah, good times!

Amarula

Love it over ice.

Raki over ice is probably the strangest commercial booze I’ve consumed.

Would the joke be "celebrating my first BJ"?

Real absinthe

Now that I like. Went to an Absinthe bar in France and they did the whole service production using a contraption like this:

Its very much a Mezcal/Tequila type buzz, you may find yourself doing some crazy things!

Yes.

When I was in Japan, everyone’s favorite shot was Habu Sake, or Habushu, which still had the pit viper in the bottom of the bottle. I never understood why it was so popular, it was pretty nasty tasting, and very expensive.

Sake is a strange drink. It's either VERY good or horrible. I haven't had much in between and price seems to have little to do with whether or not I'll like it.

I was in a local bar in Germany that had few winemakers in it. They insisted that we all have a schnapps. We said ok. The bar maid pulled out a bottle of what looked like dishwater with things floating it. Everyone drank theirs so I drank mine. It hit my gag reflex hard, but I held it down. Nasty stuff. It would put hair on anyone’s chest.
Perhaps someone could clarify, but it seemed that schnapps is just a generic term for alcohol in Germany.
