According to National Drug Intelligence Center, "water" is the slang term for emblaming fluid.
Cigarettes dipped in embalming fluid have been around since the 1960s and people found different ways to combine it with other drugs.
It's often combined with phencyclidine, also known as PCP, a strong hallucinogen, and used to coat marijuana cigarettes. The PCP causes the unpredictable and violent behavior that is associated with embalming fluid, giving it the reputation of a drug that causes users to act crazy.
A tiny amount -- or about 0.00025 grams -- of pure PCP is enough to get high, said Dr. Christine Stork, managing director of the Upstate New York Poison Center. This amount cannot be placed on a cigarette directly, so drug dealers use embalming fluid to dilute the drug into a solution with the street name "wet" or "water." The cigarette is dipped in this mixture.
A dipped cigarette is called "fry" or a "fry stick." It is either shaken or put in a freezer to dry out before it is smoked.
