You want to get drunk.. but for some reason you are short in money (being a student in Scandinavia, no job, shopped too much, etc)! What to do!?!? 

Here are some tips and tricks about how to get drunk in a cheap way. 

1. Can’t afford hard liquer? Go for strong beer (available with 10%) and X-Strong Cider (7%). Those save you from the need of buying something to mix as you can drink them as they are: sparkly and tasty!

Drinks with carbon dioxide (bubbly /sparkling) like that, whiskey and soda or champagne get into the system quicker as well.

2. OK guys- be prepared this is only for the really really desperate… well.. there is a reason why doctors prescribe suppositories… -watch a Gastroenterologist explain it to you!

3. Do not eat fat greasy food during the day - in this way the alcohol will kick in faster- fat and carbohydrates increase your bloodsugar and retard absorption! 

Getting too drunk? Eat greasy food or bread, this will absorb the alcohol like a sponge and you will sober up easier! 

4. For the girls: It may be a bit cheap - but - Look drop dead gorgeous and talk to some guys! Do we need to say more? Guaranteed that in no time they will offer you a drink! 

5. Make your own alcohol! we all have done it by accident - time to make it real! It only requires simple ingredients and some cheap tools. Done right, you can make a gallon (3.8 liters) of alcohol in less than a week- no cooking or filtering required!

Sweden is expensive- especially when it comes to food- so here a disturbing sounding but actually great tip from Swedish students.

In a nutshell: Pancake dough - with bacon - made in a casserole - in the oven -served with lingonberry jam. 

Sounds weird- tastes great!!!!! Easy to make, cheap and actually a native Swedish dish! 

It takes you 10 min to prepare and about 30-40 minutes to bake in the oven.

For 4 portions you’ll need:

• 3 cups flour
• 8 cups milk
• as much bacon as you want
• lingonberry jam

How to bake bacon cake: 

1. Preheat the oven to 175 °. 
2. Fry the bacon in a pan.
3. Mix eggs with salt and half the milk in a seperate bowl, little by little add the flour until you have a smooth dough. 
4. Add remaining milk. 
5. Add fried bacon.
6. Bake in the middle row of the oven for about 30- 40 minutes (you decide when a “nice color” is reached). 
7. Serve with lingonberry jam!

Result: emptied plates and amazed + satisfyed test-eaters!
