Nicotini

A nicotini is any alcoholic drink which includes nicotine as an ingredient. Its name is modeled after the word "martini" in the fashion of such drinks as the appletini.[1]

Use

In places which ban smoking, use of the nicotini provides smokers with the opportunity to manage cravings without stepping outside to smoke.[2][3][4]

Where nicotinis are not sold, a similar experience can be had by consuming a nicotine replacement therapy product such as nicotine chewing gum, followed by the consumption of an alcoholic beverage.

Ingredients

Nicotine replacement therapy products may be used to add a verified quantity of nicotine to produce a nicotini.

Risks

Tobacco and nicotine increase alcohol craving.[5]

Nicotine poisoning may occur from homemade tobacco infused drinks due to varying quantity of nicotine.
