NEW YORK — You'll need to be 21 to take a bite out of this
Thanksgiving turkey. New York City tavern owner Paul Hurley said he'll
unveil what he is calling the nation's first 100-proof turkey on
Monday. A spokesman for the owner of O'Casey's Tavern in Midtown
Manhattan said that the bird is infused with fruit-flavored and 100-
proof Georgi vodka for three days before being cooked. The flavors of
vodka include peach, raspberry, cherry and apple.
The gravy is also laced with the distilled liquor.
Out of concern for the danger of drinking-and-driving, the tavern is
offering free taxi ride home to anyone who orders the turkey.
It wasn't immediately clear how much it will cost to have some of the
boozy bird.

Why not just use paint thinner?

Booze cooks out when you heat it over 170 degrees. I don't hink this
would get you hammered.
Sounds nasty. I hate fruit infused liquor.
