Nothing diet or zero for me, it tastes strange, slghtly metallic and horrible. Over the last couple of years i would rather drink water than any fizzy drink.

Last year I decided, after years of dubious liqueurs, enough was enough. I had tasted bacon vodka and it was a waste of good bacon. So being a decisive sort of cove I bought a bottle of Appleton's rum and am delighted to remind one and all as to how well it was received by the assembled throng over the strange and fearful concoctions also being proffered.
The rum was so good I had no qualms about dragooning the seventh incarnation of the nations favourite TV Dr and star of Tiswas, the great Sylveste McCoy into partaking with us.
Bring decent grog and they will come.

i do like water and soda water.....sometimes the coke gets out of hand and i have to knock it on the head for a while. i started drinking diet coke when i first worked in pubs, i knew if i sat all day drinking full fat at work i'd end up the size of a house. i didn't like it at first but trained myself onto it and now i can't stand the full fat stuff!! anyway back OT, that bacon one was weird, very....bacony. |

In the past I have produced some odd garkic flavourd concoctions (You all remember htegarlic beer ??I may bring some) but htis year in honour of a magnificent raspberry crop I am pleased to announce htat I have laid down a raspberry flavoured vodka that will not resemble elsan fluid or garlic or astura bitters. I am happy to contribute because its NOT making people grimace The wort is bubbling away and I am sure will test your delights at hte toast   |

I saw the ground still smoking from when I discarded some concoction of his (think it was blue) the next day.
(Off topic, I discovered 'green Coke' in Greece....nice)

Checked out local Tesco yesterday who seem to have dumped all their Crop toast drinks. Such an opportunity missed!

I'm bringing something called Maple Storm, described as maple wine blended with maple spirits. Haven't tried it, so have no idea if this will fit Frog's idea for the toast or if it will turn out to be one of the 'nice ones'.
Anyway I liked the bottle and wanted to have something local from Maine to share....

I promise our offering this year will be somewhat more palatable than our infamous Marmite Vodka a couple of years ago!
