Looks like your average night out in East London (Picture: Rex)

At London’s latest pop-up, you don’t even have to lift a finger to get drunk. That’s how far we’ve come.
Instead of drinking your pricey cocktail, you can now inhale it.
The idyllic sounding Alcoholic Architecture ‘walk-in cloud bar’ is the brainchild of food scientists Bompas and Parr, and offers a ‘fully immersive alcohol environment’.
Spirits and mixers are turned into a fine ‘cocktail cloud’, with the help of humidifiers.
With humidity at around 140 per cent, visitors can then absorb the cocktails through their lungs and eyeballs. Nice.

Bypassing the liver means you will get drunk more quickly – it apparently takes about 40 minutes to absorb one very large drink. So, breathe responsibly.
Customers will have to wear protective suits so their clothing doesn’t get damaged by the high humidity, and will only be able to spend an hour at a time enjoying the thick boozy mist.
The bar launches in London’s Borough Market on July 31, on the site of an ancient monastery, and will be open for six months. It’s £10 per session.

As well as the cocktail cloud, wines and beers designed to complement the tastes in the air, will be available – by the glass.
‘Creatively the installation draws inspiration from Borough Market’s produce, medieval history and weather to create a sci-fi fantasy where meteorology and mixology collide,’ said Sam Bompas.
‘Visiting Alcoholic Architecture will generate the same sort of awe and wonder we have all probably experienced when gazing up at the night’s sky. Imagine Disney meets De Sade in Barbarella’s castle by way of Medieval Times with flagons of ale,’ he explained.
Err, right. Perhaps someone’s had their head in the cocktail cloud a little too long?
