Thankfully I'm very careful about what I drink. I usually drink the same thing every time and don't experiment much. Although this can happen anyone you need to be smart about it

"Incidents of mass deaths from drinking cheap homemade alcohol substitutes are not uncommon in Russia, which has been blighted by high levels of alcoholism for years."

Happened in Costa Rica a few years back. Couple Jaco resorts were buying knock off liquor and people were dying.

Fun fact, anything in Russia under 10% ABV is considered a soft drink or foodstuff. This includes beer .

It's not "alcohol" to them.
