It’s what you should be gunning for if you have a slim budget. In fact,  just two bottles will probably do the job.

Cream liqueur

Can You Get Your High on a N1k Budget?

If you’re trying to go extra bougie with your alcohol, cream liqueur comes in sachets these days. Even Baileys is not just for the rich anymore. It screams sapa but who sapa no hold?

You can roll your eyes at bus conductors and MC Oluomo’s boys but they know ball. You’ll get more than a sufficient high with sachets of gin.

Rum

They also come in sachets and midget containers these days. The most you’ll spend is ₦600 and you’ll be higher than a kite if that’s what you’re going for.

Bitters

A truly versatile king. You can afford it on your N1k budget whether you are at home or at a backyard club. Not the big leagues, abeg.

Whiskey

Is it the Nigerian economy or these guys will try anything to get their coins? Anyway, there’s whisky in sachets now and it’s not as expensive as what they sell in Quilox.
