The original Four Loco was a variety of caffeinated fruit sodas with high amount of alcohol snuck in.
You'd party until you fell down. I think they banned 'em in ~2009 or so.
Closest thing I've seen since is the Japanese chuhai, but even those don't mix in caffeine because (as discovered with Four Loco) that will actually kill you.
ha ha ha ha I love how y'all overlook the scientific heavy lifting and fearless adventuring and zero in on "she likes soda blended with Everclear" as proof of your biases
Merchant of Death? I agree, Naomi - you are certainly no Alfred Nobel...
(Just imagine her quoting Oppenheimer though: "Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds...")
Also it's of course interesting that there is an age difference between Maggie and Donna (& Naomi) that is significant enough for a generational gap...

Dr. Ashton on the other hand is mid 40s, she probably discovered Loco while she was getting her second doctorate.
(Her passion for caffeine is going to open a can of worms, no surprise there.)
I have had exactly 3 swallows of Four Loko in my life and I regret each one individually!

Having just traversed the decade Donna and Naomi are about to go through, I'm definitely closer to Maggie's perspective on priorities.
I love the glow of Maggie's glasses as she's coming through the fence :)
I got into trouble multiple times because of this stuff
