No officer, not a sip!

This Thursday through Saturday, Londoners will be able to drink without ever lifting a glass: The gin and tonics at "Alcoholic Architecture" are served as a fine mist in the air. About 40 minutes standing around is the equivalent of one "fairly strong drink," according to Wired UK. The project was created by Bompas and Parr, a jokey British design outfit that specializes in food.

Obviously, a gin-laden mist isn't exactly great for your clothes, so you don a plastic suit before paying £5 for an hour inside the bar. It's not well gin either: They're vaporizing nothing less than Hendricks. They opted for gin because of its (relatively) fresh, botanical smell. Sounds like fun. Here's to hoping that the fad comes stateside, for a longer run.

What I'm wondering is if you can get away with telling the cops that you haven't had any alcohol to DRINK? Or will this force society's finest to start asking "have you consumed any alcohol?". HA! The only other thing I'm wondering is if I can get this happening in my apartment with Vodka.
