An 18-year-old girl had her stomach removed after drinking a cocktail at a bar, according to reports. Authorities say the British teenager has had her stomach removed after she ingested a cocktail made with liquid nitrogen, an exotic ingredient often used by waitresses at bars to add a touch of excitement to their drinks.
British news media said 18-year-old, Gaby Scanlon was out with friends on Thursday night in the northern city of Lancaster, England, when she was hospitalized after having a drink prepared with liquid nitrogen, super cooled version of the harmless gas. The liquid nitrogen evaporates rapidly at room temperature, creating a special effect as warmer water condenses around the glass.
