Man finds new technique to drink pint of Guinness that leaves everybody else retching
A video of a man mixing tomato soup with Guinness before drinking it has been described by TikTok users as “absolutely diabolical”.
TikTok user Ben Stanford, who is attempting to find the perfect thing to mix with Guinness, said the tomato soup blend was “everything” his viewers wanted, and asked for suggestions on what else he could mix in with the classic Irish tipple.
Ben tipped the contents of a Co-op own brand tomato soup can into a Guinness glass and poured the alcoholic beverage in over the back of a spoon. People in the comments section likened it to something soldiers in World War 1 consumed, but Ben actually thought it tasted okay.

Ben said the “lovely little combo” would be a “perfect one for you students out there who are getting ready to go out and want pre-drinks but you also need a nice, cheap meal with it”. Ben then downed the tomato soup mixed with a “perfect temperature” Guinness in a stomach-churning clip.
One user joked in response: “I am always thinking to myself how can I have pre drinks but also have my tea in so thank you so much for this idea! ! ” And after bringing a sick bucket into frame before sampling the pint, Ben managed to make it through the Frankenstein pint.

He stuck to his guns, assuring his followers: “It was actually okay. I half recommend this one for people out there who want to try something new. It wasn’t too bad at all actually.”
Yet some sceptics weren’t buying it. A commenter said: “We used to drink this combo in the trenches during WW1.”
Though the tomato soup and Guinness concoction might not be the next big hit in bars, TikTok users didn’t hold back with their own quirky suggestions for Ben’s next taste test. Ideas thrown into the mix included a “Guinness & Tonic”, a tangy lime and Guinness blend, and even a curry sauce concoction.
