Visual signs that a drink has been spiked

A spiked drink may show physical changes, though not always. Warning signs can include:

  • Unexpected cloudiness or haze
  • A sudden change in color
  • Excessive bubbles or fizz
  • Separation or layering
  • Sediment or residue at the bottom

Important: Many spiking substances are colorless and odorless, meaning a drink can look completely normal and still be unsafe.
