intoxicator

/ɪntˈɑksᵻkˌeɪɾɚ/ noun

One who or that which intoxicates.

Word Origin Intoxicator is something that intoxicates, from Latin 'intoxicare' 'to poison', which comes from in- 'into' and 'toxicum' 'poison'. 'Toxicum' originally comes from Greek 'toxon' 'bow' — because arrows were tipped with poison. That's a surprising connection: toxic and toxin are related to archery! Intoxicator is the agent that puts the poison in.
