ogogoro
Ogogoro (Ogog') is a west African alcoholic drink, usually brewed locally. It is most popular in Nigeria, where it is known as the country's homebrew.〔Simon Heap (2008) '“Those that are Cooking the Gins”: The Business of Ogogoro in Nigeria’, ''Contemporary Drug Problems'', 35(4): 573-610.〕 It is also known as akpeteshie (especially in Ghana), Sapele water, Kparaga, kai-kai, Sun gbalaja, Egun inu igo meaning ''The Masquerade in the Bottle'', push-me-push-you, and/or crim-kena, Sonsé ("do you do it?" in Yoruba language). Other Nigerian epithets include: ''ufofob'' (), ''robirobi'' (), ''baba erin'' (), ''etonto'' (English ), wuru (), ''Udi Ogagan'' and ''Agbakara'' () and ''Aka mere'', ''Agbagba'' (), as well ''OHMS'' (Our Home Made Stuff), ''Iced Water'', ''Push Me, I Push You'' and ''Craze man in the bottle''.〔Heap (2008) '“Those that are Cooking the Gins”, 599-600.〕
==Properties and preparation==
Ogogoro is distilled from the juice of Raffia palm trees; an incision is made in the trunk and a gourd placed outside it for collection, which is collected a day or two later. After extraction, the sap is boiled to form steam, which subsequently condenses and is collected for consumption.
The active ingredient in ogogoro is ethanol, whose concentration within the drink is very high; the alcohol content of local ogogoro ranges between 30-60%. Coupled with the fact that it is often home-brewed by amateurs, the drink can be extremely dangerous. Indeed, it is said that hundreds die every year from improperly brewed ogogoro or other such drinks.
