From the Listerine website FAQ:

quote:
How much alcohol is in Listerine® Antiseptic Mouthwash?
Cool Mint, FreshBurst, Natural Citrus and Vanilla Mint contain 21.6% alcohol by volume, while Gold contains 26.9% alcohol by volume


...so I would say "YES" if you didn't puke your guts up first.

quote:
What kind of alcohol is in Listerine® Antiseptic Mouthwash?
Ethyl alcohol which has been denatured, making the alcohol unpalatable.

Word of Warning!

NEVER, EVER put Listerine® in a kettle, even as a jape at work, as you will spend all day boiling & re-boiling the damn thing to get rid of the Stink! Before the boss finds out & you have to explain why you put Listerine in the kettle in the first place....

P.s the stuff is bloody nasty, why anyone would chose this brand is beyond me!


It's Logic Jim But Not As We Know It...
