The boyfriend and guest are still fighting for their lives in hospital.
Yasmim, who created comedy content for her 23,000 Instagram followers, passed away yesterday morning (12 Nov).
The group had celebrated the influencer’s birthday at her home in Petrolina, Brazil, on Monday night.
The victim’s mother Ozenilda Feitosa said: “They drank on Monday night and then my daughter’s boyfriend woke up feeling very unwell.
“Yasmim, however, was happy all day, joking with everyone.
“She went to the market with me, we did our grocery shopping and had lunch out.
“That night she started feeling unwell.
“And then I couldn’t do anything to save my daughter.”
Ozenilda said the couple bought the whisky in a rural village outside the city of São Bento do Una, as reported by Need To Know.
She added: “They drank about a litre and a half.
“The bottle with the remaining whisky was sent away for analysis.”
Yasmim’s funeral will take place at the Campo da Esperança Cemetery in her hometown today (13 Nov).
The investigation into her death is ongoing.
