Crap drinks concoctions for Christmas

Post by Hendrickxz » Mon Dec 24, 2018 3:43 pm

C'mon, it's nearly the big day, let's lighten up and have a laugh. Everyone must know somebody who insists on drinking crap alcoholic drinks concoctions during the festive season. I'll start us off.I once worked with a bloke whose favourite tipple was Rum & Peppermint -- and that was all year round. My son in law also thinks Whisky and Coke is the way to go! (just wrong!) and I got ****** one Christmas on Gold Label Barley Wine -- about a dozen botttles of it. That was morw than 40 years ago and I have never touched a drop of the stuff since (can you even buy it nowadays?) What's on you gut-churners list????? :D

I remember my brother being given a drink called a sheep's brain in the pub one Christmas. Can't remember what went in it but it looked disgusting. And he saw it again later on.

Pint of Strongbow with a Bailey's dropped in ??
Think the idea is for the Bailey's to curdle in the cider.....Yes that's just what I thought. :o

Aka Monkey Brain....
Any strong cider works...
White Lightning the favoured tipple of the Shadsworth Massive....

Drop in a Baileys and it congeals into a glutinous mass....

I bought Shane McGowan a drink in Filthy McNasty's in Islington in the 90's and his drink of choice was Cinzano and Cider, top bloke he was. Shameless name drop but worth a mention.

Rum and Pep was a traditional stomach settler before Jaegermeister was known about or for people without access to Benedictine :lol:

At the works club at Loveclough they had a poster on the wall with Guiness and 72 different mixers. Several regulars had initialled their way around the poster.

One of my fav shots for parties etc is named the “cake”.

Invented it working behind a bar and it is half a Malibu/half a disarano/amaretto And a tiny drop of blue caracao in the top.

Tastes just like a Bakewell tart - definitely reccomend it to anyone stuck for something different when entertaining guests.
