I think I just accidently made alcohol
 

I drink these carbonated 100% fruit juice drinks called izzes. I opened a bottle, drank half of it and left it out with the cap loosely on about a month ago. Today I go to throw it out. It reeks of alcohol. I want to taste it but am very afraid. What's the possibility of me getting sick/hurt by drinking it?

This is wise.

Go ahead and drink some - provide trip report.

You also boil off the alcohol.

So you're saying I should boil it, then get drunk off it?

Just add some Hydrochloric Acid first to kill the germs, then drink it.

Is this true? DON'T boil it then. Just drink it and keep a phone nearby (for 911 - but first provide trip report).

Is there a safer way to make more of these in the future?
