ALCOHOLIC DRINKS UNDER THE MICROSCOPE

[above is a Margarita magnified by 1000]

Bevshots, a company, has produced a series of prints of popular alcoholic beverages that have gone under the microscope.

The entire process - letting a drop of liquor dry out on a slide inside an airtight container, and photographing the results. It can apparently take up to three months and as many as 200 shots to properly capture the drink's constituent parts.

The bright colours in the prints are a result of dried out citric acid and complex sugars used in the drinks.

Bevshots are selling these photographs as prints or larger artworks, which can be a reminder that your hangover started as something beautiful. Prices start at $19.99; truly affordable contemporary art.
