It's a damn shame that it's a kids' show and they're all underage, so we never saw any of the benders get drunk in canon! Zuko drunk would be hilarious (and possibly quite dangerous!).
This makes me wonder if the Fire Nation army has strict rules for alcohol and other mind-altering substances, on or off duty. It seems like it would be much more of a problem for them than for users of other elements, since they walk such a razor's edge with their element. (Actually ... do firebenders drink at all? We saw seedy bars and taverns in the Earth Kingdom, but I don't recall anything comparable in the Fire Nation ...)
