The last splash: anyone fancy an Atomik and tonic?

Would you drink vodka made with grain and water from the Chernobyl exclusion zone?

Us neither, but University of Portsmouth scientists have come up with such a tipple, tastefully named ‘Atomik’, and insist it’s safe to consume. Apparently the distillation process gets rid of the nasties that make it unsafe to consume the ingredients before treatment. 

The Chernobyl Spirit Co are planning to sell it, and will give profits to communities affected by the disaster.
