Come experience the fun new "Flavor Tripping" craze while having a few drinks!

Flavor tripping is the awesome experience of twisting your taste buds so that sour and bitter foods taste sweet. Lemons taste like lemon drops and limes taste like delicious lime-aid.

From a NY Times Article:
"The miracle fruit, Synsepalum dulcificum, is native to West Africa and has been known to Westerners since the 18th century. The cause of the reaction is a protein called miraculin, which binds with the taste buds and acts as a sweetness inducer when it comes in contact with acids”
