Think you tried every cocktail ever made? What about a virtual-reality enhanced one?
VR News: If you enjoy trying out new cocktails at the local cocktail bar you might want to check out the “Virtual Cocktail”.

My Thoughts on this Story: This “Vocktail” isn’t too far away from the food story I covered a while back. VR is a great tool for tricking the brain into thinking something that is not real (hence the “Virtual” in VR) and while I am not a massic fan of cocktails anyway I would like to try this out and discover for myself how easy it is to trick the brain. There has been many-a-time when VR has “tricked” me into believing something virtual is happening in real life so why shouldn’t I down a few virtual drinks that might smell, taste and look like a cocktail, but are in fact little more than water.
