In some cases, it can be helpful to drink without getting caught. For example, if you are attending a non-alcoholic event, you may need to hide the bottle. There are many safe ways to drink without getting caught.
Steps
Part 1 of 2: Hiding the alcohol
Step 1. Hide the alcohol in another container
If you want to drink inconspicuously, try hiding the alcohol in an unsuspecting container. Pour the beer into a can of cola. Add liquor to a half-full bottle of tea or fruit juice. Pour the alcohol into a fast food paper cup or mouthwash bottle.
Step 2. Purchase a hidden flask
On many internet sites, such as Amazon, you can find flasks designed specifically for hiding alcohol. Prices vary based on the type you choose.
- Many flasks are hidden in clothes. You can attach them under the tie, under the bra or inside the sleeve.
- Other flasks are disguised as bags. If you want to drink at an event that prohibits alcohol consumption, they can be very helpful.
Step 3. Hide the alcohol in an American coffee glass
The polystyrene, plastic or paper cups that you can find in fast food restaurants are ideal for this purpose. Don't throw your glass away next time you have a coffee.
- If the glass is made of styrofoam or non-transparent plastic, you can use it to hide all types of alcohol, because the liquid will not be visible through the material.
- Clear plastic cups can also be helpful. You can take advantage of the similarity between red wine and coffee, or you can mix another dark liquid, such as a soda or pomegranate juice, with your favorite liqueur. You can also simply add alcohol to your coffee.
Step 4. Choose the vodka
This liqueur has a less pungent odor than other spirits. It is also easier to hide, as it looks like water to inattentive observers. You can easily drink vodka from a bottle of water without getting caught.
Step 5. Hide the smell of alcohol by adding it to drinks creatively
If you want to create alcoholic mixes, there are many ways to do this by hiding the smell. Consider some of the following tricks.
- Add the alcohol to the coffee. This drink has a strong odor that covers that of many spirits. By adding a few drops of liqueur to the coffee glass, your "cocktail" should not have a strong smell of alcohol.
- Choose a mint-flavored drink, such as hot chocolate or tea. Mint has a strong odor, which usually masks that of alcohol.
- During the holidays, it's easy to add alcohol to cinnamon, nutmeg, and other strong flavored soft drinks without getting caught. Like mint, these smells are difficult to cover.
Step 6. Drink carefully to avoid getting caught
Pay attention to the way you drink. With the right precautions you will manage not to get caught.
- If you are hiding alcohol in a flask, drink when you are alone. Move to an isolated spot and take a few sips. If you hide the alcohol in a glass of coffee, drink as you normally would.
- Keep the container of alcohol away from other people. If they took a sip or smelled your drink, they would find you. If someone asks you to try your drink, make up an excuse. Tell him you have a cold or the flu and don't want to infect him.
Part 2 of 2: Hiding the Symptoms
Step 1. Freshen your breath
Alcohol has a tendency to make bad breath. If you want to hide the fact that you've been drinking, use mouthwash, breath strips, and peppermint chewing gum. Try to eat foods with strong smells, such as onion or garlic, to cover the smell of alcohol.
Step 2. Use the eye drops
Some people get red eyes when they drink. If this happens to you too, take some eye drops with you. You can buy it in all pharmacies. If your eyes feel itchy, sore or dry, go to the bathroom and apply a few drops of eye drops.
Step 3. Stay hydrated
Drink lots of water when you consume alcohol. This not only helps to avoid a hangover, but also to cover up the smell of alcohol.
- Try to drink a 25cl glass of water for each alcoholic drink. A 25cl beer or glass of wine counts as a drink, as does a shot of a hard alcohol.
- Sports drinks that contain electrolytes can also help you hide your alcohol consumption.
Step 4. Be silent
People have a tendency to gibber when they are drunk. They also lose the ability to adjust the volume of the voice. If you're looking to drink undetected, don't talk too much and listen.
Step 5. Know when you have reached your limit
After a certain point, you won't be able to hide the fact that you've been drinking, no matter how hard you try. You will lose your inhibitions and become less and less alert. If you start feeling tipsy, you should stop. You may feel precariously balanced or dizzy. Many people also feel more and more sociable and happy when they start getting drunk. If you notice these symptoms, stop drinking.
Warnings
- Never try to hide alcohol when driving. Driving while intoxicated is illegal and extremely dangerous. Never hire a drunk driver.
- If you think you have a drinking problem, get help. Hiding alcohol is one of the symptoms of alcoholism.
- Keep in mind that you can get in trouble if you hide alcohol in some places. For example, drinking at work can get you fired. If you get caught with alcohol, you may be expelled from a concert or other event.
