Design student José Luis García Eguiguren puts you under the influence with his Mixed Emotions Cocktails, a project intended for the express purpose of selling emotions. Each cocktail contains a fruit blend, a shot of vodka, and emotional packaging: love, sadness, happiness, fear and anger.
Anticipating potentially crazy behaviour upon consumption, García Eguiguren designed the bottles to be spill-friendly and unbreakable, stating, "The consumers can dance, jump, go wild or do whatever they please." Raise your bottle to the power of suggestion and a shot of liquid happiness!
