Four Loko



Between jobs, school, family, and bills we feel we need to drink something that supplies the energy our body needs. Here comes the energy drink, but this one has a bad reputation for the twelve spoons of sugars it contains in each can, and for the damage to the brain that it could cause.  However, now we can find a new mixiology: Alcohol and energy drink! Both of them in an unique can called Four Loko.  This drink contains 12 percent of alcoholic, the same as five or six beers, in it and as much caffeine as a cup of coffee.

The alcoholic energy drink is considered dangerous because the energy it gives to people covers the level of intoxication that they have for the alcohol, allowing people to drink more and more.  In most of the cases, the students, more than twenty, finished their schoolar and universitary parties at the hospital with a high level of alcoholic intoxication. The worst thing is that many of those were underage. This is why many states decided to ban Four Loko in their territories, while the company that own this brand, supports its rights to sell it because, as many alcoholic drinks, they have to face underage people problems buying the product, but they ask not to be banned.

Check what you drink. Don't trust only on the can, the colors and the good taste. Drive safe or give someone else your car key!!!
