All over Italy there were street venders that sold packages of liquor
filled hard candies, maybe six types of real booze (not diluted),
could get a buzz on eating them. I don't know if they still sell
them... they looked like a package of "Charms" hard candy, each
individually wrapped and packaged in a stack exactly like Charms, only
these were potent. The trick was to suck on them until the booze
seeped out but I used to bite them and spit out the candy. They were
only a few Lira each. I bought up lots and brought them back to the
US for gifts. I've never seen anything like them in the US.
