Alcoholic Architecture
London-based culinary duo Sam Bompas and Harry Parr debuted their latest project, Alcoholic Architecture, in July. The concept features a breathable cocktail cloud composed of fine spirits and mixers at a ratio of one to three, made using powerful humidifiers to super-saturate the air. Alcohol enters the bloodstream through the body’s mucus membranes: primarily the lungs but also the eyeballs. By "breathing" the cocktail, alcohol bypasses the liver, allowing guests to consume 40 percent less to feel the same effect, plus the high humidity level enhances the flavor.
