When we were skint at college we needed a drink that would get the results really quickly. We drank what's called a "Dogs Nose". A pint of bitter, sup the top off and put a double gin in it. Geez, 2 of them and your seeing double.
These days we are far more civilized, we drink what we call "Hilda Ogdens" (Coronation Street). It's really a Brandy Alexandra. Brandy, fresh cream and a splash of ameretto. Too decadent!
