I think geek bar burnt my throat

I've a couple friends/relatives that have had negative flow tests for up to 4 days before a positive one, with symptoms including a sore throat/general cold feeling. Not saying that it is the spicy Covid, but just anecdotally (including a brother and sister in law who tested negative for a couple days till a full positive flow then pcr test - kid caught it first) might be worth keep daily flow testing for a couple more days.

Obviously it could be a cold, but could also be irritation from the geek bar as it's likely higher nicotine in a different ingestion method than you're used to. Plus with alcohol dehydrating you a little on top. vaping does that also.

If you're still testing negative by end of week I'd say and nothing is obviously showing like full cold symptoms, or icky looking tonsils (or tonsil stones) then maybe contact your GP and see what they say too.
