intoxicate
Get someone plastered
To intoxicate is to affect someone with alcohol or drugs, impairing their faculties: He was too intoxicated to drive.
The word extends to any overwhelming influence that clouds judgment or produces euphoria: intoxicated by success, intoxicated with power.
The adjective intoxicating describes things that produce such effects: an intoxicating perfume, the intoxicating rush of victory.
