Stoking the flames of future Girls Gone Wild-fires…Dutch students brew up powdered alcohol hit. (The Register)

Dutch students have developed what might be the ultimate Reg hack survival aid - a powdered alcohol beverage going out at €1-€1.50 for a 20-gram packet, Reuters reports.

Just add water to Booz2Go and you get a “bubbly, lime-colored and flavored drink with just three percent alcohol content”, ideal for those journalistic Bravo Two Zero situations where you find yourself pinned down by a corporate PowerPoint presentation with nothing more than a plastic cup and a water cooler between you and a sobriety-heightened two-hour torture session.

…

Van Elderen and four classmates at Helicon Vocational Institute brewed up Booz2Go as part of a final year project. Fellow student Martyn van Nierop showed his WKD side by announcing one major attraction of the concoction for the yoof demographic: “Because the alcohol is not in liquid form, we can sell it to people below 16.”

Gotta love the Dutch.
