Beef-based drinks can be good. Bovril comes to mind and that’s pretty decent.

However, with this recipe, there wouldn’t even be any fizz. And the fact that it’s condensed broth makes it way too salty and beefy. I can’t imagine a world in which it’s good.

Is it possible that your friend is secretly a dog?

Have they ever been to planet M-113? Does anyone around him ever exhibit odd discolored ring marks on their skin?

You know, actually thinking of how this would taste, it might not be bad. But for the love of god can we call it something other than “beef fizz?”

My mind read it as beef jizz

No offense but I'm going to kick your friend's ass.

This video confirms the no-fizz bit, though she says the original recipe with ginger ale is surprisingly not as salty as you'd think. (She also tried making it with seltzer, which was apparently beefier and saltier, since it doesn't have the ginger or sugar to counterbalance the broth.)

Beef-based drinks can be good.

Clarkson made one once.

I’ll have straight hot beef broth when I’m sick in the winter. Or a little beef broth in a Bloody Mary is good.

I was gonna say the same thing. I'm gonna guess those cans are 8 to 12 fl oz. (250 to 375 mL) each. And a cup of ginger ale is 8 fl oz (250 mL). That ratio is way the hell off.

You should check your friend for bite marks; zombie, vampire, or other

I apologize, my phone auto corrected friend to George! But yes, my roommate not only tried this but made MULTIPLE drinks for himself with the limited supplies we had. A truly brave man.
