Don’t be foolish. You surely have enough saichel to know that anyone that cannot drink safely should not. Our Chachomim never instructed us to do dangerous things. We do not question whether a boy past 13 is obligated to fulfill all mitzvos. But only if it can be done without risk or danger. There is a margin of risk that adults take because they can handle it. Teens cannot. And I bet you have met a few adults who also cannot take such risk. Then they should not. Would you be happier to see the discussion by a posek on that? The contemporary poskim have published their tshuvos on this. And they all state openly and boldly that danger is not part of the mitzvos of Purim.
