Whiskey Pods Are Tailor-Made for American Drinkers
Over the weekend, images began to circulate online of what can only be described as boozy Tide Pods. Dubbed “The Glenlivet Capsule Collection” in a winking reference to limited-edition high-end fashion lines, these pods are clear, ice-cube-size pouches filled with mini whiskey cocktails. They come in three flavors, all photographed on a small, stately platform in front of a bottle of scotch. Pop one in your mouth, burst it with your tongue, and get an amuse-bouche of flavor. People on the internet immediately started discussing whether it was possible to put the pods in their butts.
The pods are a super-limited promotional item, available in a single bar during London Cocktail Week, which ends on Sunday. They were devised by the staid scotch brand The to , in addition to the laundry-detergent capsules that became a meme in 2018 after several dozen teens on YouTube.
