Distillery Recalls Gin Bottles Accidentally Filled With Hand Sanitizer

Oops! As I've talked about on the air, many distilleries, including many right here in the Lone Star State, have switched to making hand sanitizer as the demand has skyrocketed due to the coronavirus pandemic. Welp, for one Australian manufacturer the worst case scenario became reality. Victoria's Apollo Bay Distillery, mistakenly sold at least nine of its 700ml bottles of SS Casino Dry Gin that were actually full of hand sanitizer. The gin bottles were recalled because they contained 1.45 percent glycerol and 0.125 percent hydrogen peroxide, which when consumed can cause a variety of illnesses and side effects including nausea, headaches, dizziness, bloating, vomiting, thirst and diarrhea.
