The plant wants you to eat the fruit and shit the stone into the woods. Alcohol is a byproduct nobody intended.
Can’t remember exactly what tree it is, but there’s a rainforest tree that’s almost entirely pollinated by drunk little monkeys. The monkeys are specifically attracted to the pollen with the highest alcohol content.

It’s toxic to insects, so it’s a natural pesticide iirc
