Might be fun - after all breathing in the steam off a hot punch is traditional enough.
Still, this will probably turn out to give you lung cancer or something. And there'll be all kinds of hassles about secondary breathing, or whatever it'll be called.
And what will it be called? We haven't got the vocabulary for it yet. Though of course there are terms that could be adjusted or revived -"going for a quick snifter". And they used at one time to talk about "drinking tobacco" for what we call smoking.
