A top scientist said synthetic alcohol called alcosynth will replace real alcohol in just 10 or 20 years.
Professor David Nutt, a former government drugs adviser of Imperial College London, said the man-made liquor will have the same intoxicating effect on us but won't harm our health.
He also believes that cigarettes and tobacco will be entirely replaced by e-cigarettes, reports News.com.au.
Professor Nutt told International Business Times UK: "In another 10 or 20 years, Western societies won't drink alcohol except on rare occasions.
"Alcosynth will become the preferred drink, in the same way that I can see — almost within a decade now in the Western world — tobacco and cigarettes will disappear as they're replaced by electronic cigarettes."
