Don't drink it all. When your battery is dead, add wine. Now, thanks to video creator Kipkay, we learn a very unconventional hack.

The acid in the red wine reacts with the acid in the battery to give it just enough of a boost to start the car. Sounds like we should start packing the Shiraz alongside the spare tire, road flares and jumper cables.

Just don't get caught with an "open container".

Charge your car battery with red wine
