• A mixed drink. It can be made with any combination of liquers or soft drinks. The only [salient] ingredient is [Polonium] 210 (Po-210). Po-210 is an alpha emitter that has a half-life of 138.[376] days. A [milligram] of Po-210 emits about as many alpha particles per second as 4.5 grams of Radium-226. As such, an extremely small amount (50 nanograms!) that is ingested will result in a painful death that takes several weeks to complete. Hence a Polonium Cocktail is NOT something you want to order from your bartender.

    Po-210 poisioning is an assassination technique that was developed by the KGB in the 1970s. The Po-210 poisoning of Alexander Litvinenko in 2006, allegedly by former KGB agents Andrei Lugovoi and Dmitri Kovtun, after Litvinenko wrote scathing books about Vladimir Putin, shows that the assassination technique is still in use by the current Russian [trauponcracy].
