New York City tavern owner Paul Hurley said he'll unveil what he is calling the United States' first 100-proof (50 percent alcohol) turkey on Monday.

A spokesman for the owner of O'Casey's Tavern in Midtown Manhattan said that the bird is infused with fruit-flavoured and 100-proof Georgi vodka for three days before being cooked. The flavours of vodka include peach, raspberry, cherry and apple.

The gravy is also laced with the distilled liquor.

Out of concern for the danger of drinking-and-driving, the tavern is offering free taxi ride home to anyone who orders the turkey.

It wasn't immediately clear how much it will cost to have some of the boozy bird.
