I've had beers, ciders, and other alcohol before (Kahlua is great on ice cream). This was my first Smirnoff Ice (grape, if that matters). Why would I vomit up 3 hours later? It was just one bottle. Does SI just disagree with some folks?

Since I know you'll worry, I feel much better for having emptied my stomach. I know I should have grabbed a towel as soon as I felt ill, but at least it's my mess to deal with now. And my area carpet is washable and fits in the washing machine.

I'm not tempting fate and I've told my partner that the rest of the six pack is all his.

Smirnoff Ice is the same thing as Zima, but with flavors. It's a malt liquor, or Clearmalt as Zima is called. It's basically clear beer. The added ingredients could be what made you ill. If you try Zima you may have the same reaction, if not, it was the additives in Smirnoff.
