Safer grog on horizon

A TOP British scientist said synthetic alcohol called alcosynth will replace real alcohol in just 10 or 20 years.

Professor David Nutt, a former government drugs adviser of Imperial College London, said the man-made liquor would have the same intoxicating effect on us but would not harm our health.

Professor Nutt told International Business Times UK: “In another 10 or 20 years, Western societies won’t drink alcohol except on rare occasions.

“Alcosynth will become the preferred drink.”
