Bottoms up! These are 20 of the weirdest drinks in the world

We all love trying new things and have a weird attraction to sometimes try weird things that may not even sound tempting… all for the sake of a new experience. Different places and different customs and traditions bring drinks you may think are crazy, but that are just average for other people (hey! They must think our drinks are insane as well). And as it usually happens with new things, the weirder it is we want to try it more just to see what it’s like.

We made our research and we don’t know why but for some reason, these weird drinks were invented and apparently, they are popular with some people. We’ll tell you all about them here.

Beer and milk

Google.

This japanese drink was born whenthe producer heard about a milk surplus. A proposition was made to the local brewery to produce a beer with milk. As a third of the beer was milk, it was understood as an excellent way to help local farmers. We're not sure if they have a target audience because it sounds gross but we're glad for the farmers.

Panda Dung Tea

Google.

An Yanshi, professor of calligraphy at Sichuan University, has patented a way to grow green tea in panda excrement. As bizarre as it sounds, sales are through the roof and it's become super popular - and expensive!

Tobacco liquid

Google.

This was an energy drink that promised to give users a similar experience to smoking. Martin Hartman, CEO of the company, stated that the product did not contain nicotine, but did produce "an energizing effect, followed by a feeling of euphoria and relaxation." This product brought lots of legal problems for him.

Diet water

Google.

More than a weird drink, it's a marketig ploy... I can’t believe h0ow anyone could ever invent something like this, and even more shocking, how can anyone buy these.. It doesn’t make any sense. "Regular" water already has no calories, fat, carbs or protein.

Rainbow beer

Google.

Ryuhyo ("ice drift") is one of the most interesting projects that we can find in Rainbow Beer, made with water from melted icebergs that float on the beaches of northern Hokkaido. Its bright blue color comes from seaweed extract.

Ice cucumber Pepsi

Google.

Of course, this was launched in Japan. Some people said that it had a real artificial flavor that was bad. However, I like cucumber. The thing is that the mix with Pepsi doesn’t sound like the right combination... but that may just be me.

BustUp

Google.

This beberage was sold in Japan as a “natural” way of growing bresats. Well, it doesn’t look natural at all people. You should never drink something that says that is going to change your body. You should just exercise and accept yourself as you are. Besides, we have no idea what's on this!

Pizza beer

Google.

Separately both things are perfect. How could someone mix both? Pizza Beer claims to be the World's first "culinary beer", and the ale brewed with oregano, basil, tomato and garlic is sold on select locations within the US. I will admit, this combo makes me curious but I think I'd rather have them separately.

Deer penis wine

Google.

Not even its name sounds good. Chinese athletes have long used animal parts to improve their performance. The last thing in their sports medicine seemed to be venison penis wine. There is a variant called the triple wine of the penis, which is made with the sexual organs of dogs and seals, as well as deer. Right.

Kids beer

Google.

Some people think that this is a way of encouraging little children to drink alcohol. However, I feel like it is a way of telling them that alcohol is nothing different as the things they actually know. In that way they would not be that curious when they grow up and nothing would get out of control. Just a disclaimer, of course this has zero alcohol.

Garlic drink

Google.

This is a south Korean drink. Most asian cultures heavily use garlic and they don’t have any problems with garlic smell. We, usually tend to look for things that take the garlic smell away from us. After cutting it when we cook etc.

Curry lemonade

Google.

Of course, we, occidental people are always one step behind oriental people. That is why we only use curry as a seasoning when we cook. Well, Japanese people mixed it with lemonade and drink it. This is also very popular in other asian countries, like India.

Cow water

Google.

Four years ago, a Hindu cultural group developed jal gau ("cow water") as a "healthy" alternative to soft drinks. Although Gau Jal still has to appear in supermarkets in the United States, it has already found a niche market in Italy, where it is sold under the elegant name of "Acqua di Vacca".

Kimchi Soda

Google.

Ramune produces his bubbly drinks of wasabi, kimchi, curry or teriyaki flavors. We don’t know if we must trust in these. The word "Ramunė" is a Japanese adaptation of "lemonade". Couldn’t they have just used lemons?

Cheese liquid

Google.

Produced by the NEEDS cheese factory in Hokkaido, the NEEDS liquid cheese beverage was presented with three flavors: Berry, Yuzu Citrus and normal. This sounds amazingly disgusting. However, at this point nothing surprises me…

Baby mouse wine

Google.

Why why why why WHY would you drink baby mice?. Just take a look at the picture. It can’t even exist. I know that mice are mostly a lovable little rodent but this is just too much for my own eyes. It doesn’t only sound wrongs it also looks really bad.

Peruvian frog juice

Google.

Two incisions are made in the belly of the frog. The frog is liquefied in the blender with the hot broth of beans, honey, aloe vera, and maca. Unfortunately, this become famous and a lot of people are drinking it. For the locals, it's a deliceatessen. To each their own I suppose.

Placenta 10000 and Placenta-Pro

Google.

It is taken "to increase the energy and production of breast milk of a first-time mother, while decreasing postpartum depression and bleeding". And if the porcine placenta does not sound strong enough for you, there is always Placenta-pro, made from horse placenta extract.

Thanksgiving drink

Google.

In 2003, beverage manufacturers Jones Soda launched a flavored Turkey and salsa flavored drink for the holiday season. Very extravagant. It ran out in two hours, in case you were wondering why would they do that.

Bird's nest drink

Google.

Pollution is eroding the cliffs where swifts live. But it does not matter, in China there is a fever from drinking a bird's nest. Who wouldn’t want to get a smoother skin?

A First Bath Provides a Clean Start for Abandoned Puppies

Vía Youtube.com

It’s been pointed out that petting a dog lowers a person’s blood pressure. Just imagine what giving a bath to a puppy must do. As this adorable video demonstrates, the steady stream of water does wonders for the puppy too.

Vía Youtube.com

Undoubtedly, just watching the following video from barcroft.tv can also bring you a little relaxing joy. This shouldn’t be a surprise since interactions like this with dogs trigger the same brain regions activated by the sight of human infants. Talk about a moment of zen.

Vía Youtube.com

Things weren’t always so happy, though. Claire Fowler, the woman featured in the video, found this trio of lovable pups in a dumpster. At the time, they were covered in fleas, and as pointed out, this can be especially dangerous for puppies only two weeks old due to anemia from flea bites. Flea control chemicals are also out of the question, so the bathing serves another purpose beyond just soothing the puppies.

Vía Youtube.com

It’s pretty certain she’ll also have to perform their mother’s job of stimulating them to relieve themselves until they can manage on their own. Clearly, this is someone with a lot of compassion.

Watch this video and you can witness Ms. Fowler’s dedication to these darling puppies by giving them formula every couple of hours.

As much work as this is, an even bigger chore will be to find them permanent homes when they’re ready for that stage in life. If they can hang onto a little of their current charm, though, it shouldn’t be that hard

Animals

Unique endangered animals that you didn’t know existed

Our planet is slowly being run over by humans, and there are many animal species that have disappeared because of the damage we have done to them and to their habitat. We can still try and make things better, to rethink and change the way we see things, helping the environment and living things that inhabit the earth.

This is a list of very rare animals that you might have never heard of or seen in your life, that are at risk of dissapearing from earth, for good. The first step to resolve a problem is to acknowledge it, so check them out!

The crested gibbon

Pinterest.

These adorable animals live in China, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, and other southeast asian countries. They are small, white as babies and then grow up to have a black crest. Deforestation and the destruction of wooded areas in Southeast Asia has endangered them.

African Penguin

Pinterest.

The only African penguin has observed a tremendous decline of its population throughout the 20th century. Today there are many conservation programs, but it continues to be in severe danger.

Tree Kangaroo

Flickr.

These marsupials inhabit the rainforests of New Guinea and Queensland, and as the name suggests, are members of the family of kangaroos that live in trees. Hunting and deforestation have reduced the number of these wonderful creatures to 1%.

The Amur Leopard

Pinterest.

It's the rarest species of leopard that exists and only about thirty of them are conserved, despite its cuteness (it's a big cat, we fell in love with from the first time we saw it). It lives in a far off corner of Siberia, in between Russia and China.

Axolotl

Flickr.

Also known as the Mexican salamander, these odd little amphibians are found in many Central American lakes, including Lake Xochimilco in Mexico City. Since 2010, the strange creatures have been in critical danger and a study in 2013 could not be locate any in the wild. Let's hope they are still out there.

Red Pandas

Pinterest.

This cute animal, closer to a fox than abear but panda-like anyways, is a gift from nature to humans. It's usual to find pictures of them making faces and videos displaying a whole arsenal of sillyness. This adorable mammal is red, has a rogue face and a racoon-like tail.

Black-footed ferret

Pinterest.

These adorable ferrets are quite similar to the domestic ferret, with the difference of their distinctive black feet. They were believed to have been extinct in the United States until the 1970s (dogs almost finished them). Now they are extremely protected and few are left.

Iberian lynx

Pinterest.

The Iberian lynx is bordeline extinct, which makes it the most threatened feline on earth. This adorable feline would be the first that if extinct, would disappear from the planet in a millennia.

Quokkas

Flickr.

It’s unfair such a beautiful and innocent animal disappears, something must be done. The Quokkas are a very friendly species of marsupial found in a small corner of southwestern Australia. Its kindness explains in part why they're in danger, sometimes it get close to dingos and foxes hoping to make friends.

The Hawaiian monk seal

Pinterest.

The rarest and nicest monk seal in the world. It lives in Hawaii, which explains why it's always lying on the paradisiacal beaches of the Pacific and always seems to travel the world in an eternal state of happiness. The monk seal could disappear and humanity should not forgive itself for it: It is a clear role model for how we should live our life!

Olm

Pinterest.

The olm lives in the caves of Central and South-Eastern Europe and is one of the few amphibians that is totally aquatic - It eats, sleeps and grows underwater. It lives all its life in complete darkness. The olm has never developed eyes and instead has incredible senses of hearing and smell. Water pollution has finished with it, and it's been on the endangered species list since 1982.

Langur chato Monkey

Pinterest.

These little monkeys look like "elves" and it's so sad see how it disappears. They are found in Asia, at a height of up to 13,000 feet, and they are primates with a short short nose that are very private and are rarely seen. They have become seriously endangered due to deforestation, and while they are very beautiful they are suffering.

Gharial

Flickr.

The world population of gharials (also known as gavial crocodiles) is thought to be under 235, most of which are in the Indian subcontinent. These 20-foot long beasts weigh 350 pounds and dominate all major river systems, as their long, thin jaws make them agile in hunting and fish consumption. Overfishing by humans has reduced the number of this animal to only 2%.

Okapi

Flickr.

Known as the "zebra giraffe," the Okapi has the legs of a zebra and the long neck of a giraffe. The animal rose to fame during the 1800s, when it was found by British explorers. However, no one returned home believing such a strange creature could be real. Today, it can only be found in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and there are only 10,000 to 20,000 left.

Irrawaddy Dolphins

Pinterest.

The Irrawaddy Dolphin is found in the coastal areas of South and Southeast Asia. These animals are known for their bulging forehead and short beak, giving them a much stranger look than other dolphins. Recent studies put their numbers at 77, citing overfishing as their main threat.

Slow Loris

Pinterest.

These adorable animals are small primates that live throughout Southeast Asia and are quite threatened because their habitat, tropical forests, is disappearing.

Dugongo

Flickr

The dugong is one of only four live species of sea cows and is found in the Pacific Ocean to the east coast of Africa. These majestic giants have long been hunted for their flesh and oil, leaving them in danger of extinction.

Slender loris

Flickr.

The elusive Slender Loris of the Horton Plains has been seen only four times since 1937 and completely disappeared from 1939 until 2002, raising fears that the primate had become extinct. Located in Sri Lanka, the animal's large eyes gives them excellent night vision, but it has also given birth to superstitions. Some communities believe that the animal's flesh can heal leprosy, and that parts of the body can be used to ward off curses and spells.

Gooty Sapphire Ornamental Tarantula

Pinterest.

Beautiful and charming with its colors, the Gooty Sapphire Ornamental Tarantula or Poecilotheria metallica is only found in a small Indian forest around 60 square miles. Collectors will pay up to $500 for these beautifully colored arthropods and this has led their population to fall significantly, placing them now in critical danger.

Markhor

Flickr.

The markhor seems to be taken from a fantasy book and it's easy to see why it's the national animal of Pakistan. Their high status and incredible style is surprising and for that it became a perfect target for trophy hunters. Now there are only about 2,500 remaining Markhors alive, which is a shame.

Coconut crab

Pinterest.

Coconut crabs are the largest arthropods in the world, weighing up to 9 kilos. As the name implies, these animals are known to climb trees to pick up coconuts and then crush them with their powerful claws. Considered a delicacy by some, these crustaceans are now endangered and protected in some areas, especially where they are hunted for food.

The pygmy hippopotamus

Eric Kilby

We had some doubts about it (as hippos are usualy a violent, territorial and aggressive animal), but that look has won us forever. We were not going to limit this list to furry bugs anyways, right? These adorable small hippos live in Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Liberia and Ivory Coast.

Sea Otter

Pinterest.

Sea otters are one of the most adorable species of mammals on the planet... I mean, just look at them. It is essentially a teddy thrown to the sea that has come to life. However, despite their adorable looks, this species is quite endangered (hunted by their fur) and they live on horseback between Alaska and the Kamtchatka peninsula in the North Pacific.

Proboscis Monkey

Pinterest.

This strange monkey species, found only on the island of Borneo, is known for its huge belly and nose. These features gave it the nickname "Dutch monkey" after the Indonesians said Dutch settlers who came to the island had big guts just like these monkeys. The population of these monkeys has been reduced by 50% in the last 40 years as a result of deforestation.

Kakapo

Pinterest.

The kakapo is the heaviest parrot in the world and because of its weight problems, the only non-flying parrot. Originally from New Zealand, the European colonization of the island bought cats and these ended with them. These birds are critically endangered and only about 128 specimens remain on some islands, free of predators.

Saiga Antelope

Pinterest.

Saiga is a critically endangered antelope. It inhabits the Eurasian steppe, including Dzungaria and Mongolia. This incredible creature that looks alien, has a strange nose that is extremely flexible and helps it to filter the dust raised by the migrating herd. Hunting and loss of habitat means that there are only a few thousand of these strange animals left.

Red-headed vulture

Flickr.

A beautiful bird that inhabit the Everest, the Himalayas and other mountain regions of Europe and Asia. These vultures were almost eradicated in the last century as people were afraid they would attack lambs and children, and now the WWF estimates that there are only 10,000 left.

Hooded Seal

Flickr.

Hooded seals are found only in small areas of the North Atlantic and are heavily hunted. The seal is known for its unique nasal cavity located on the top of its head, which inflates and deflates while swimming. The bell also inflates when it feels threatened, attracts peers and symbolizes health and superior status. These huge animals can weigh up to 900 pounds and measure up to 8 feet.

We need to raise awareness

Pinterest.

We're still in time to help not only these animals, but all animals that are currently endangered. The delicate natural balance is being affected by us, as every day we destroy forests, burn plains, contaminate the oceans and fluvial sources, and are overall modifying the natural habitat of almost all species in the world.

Still it’s time to do something

Pinterest.

We hope to contribute in some way with this article. These are only some of the incredible animals that we might never see again until we make some serious changes. Together everything is possible, and indeed we can help.
