A British holidaymaker in Jamaica died after trying to drink all 21 cocktails on the menu at a hotel pool bar, an inquest has heard. Timothy Southern took part in the challenge having drunk beer and brandy in the morning already.
The 53-year-old took part in the challenge to drink all the cocktails after meeting two Canadian women who were doing it for their birthdays. Timothy, from Lichfield, Staffordshire, managed to get through 12 cocktails before going to his room at the Royal Decameron Club Caribbean, in Saint Ann, an inquest at Staffordshire Coroners' Court heard.
He became sick and died a short time later. His family hit out at hotel staff during the inquest and how they acted after the alarm was raised, StokeonTrentLive reports.
