anyone drink it,

I mam quite paetial to a bit of advocaat. lobe it

How many have you had?

Got to be Warninks.

You, and obviously too much of it going by your second sentence

Advocaat - the alcoholic's omelette..

Ah ... reminds me of the "Snowball" ... Advocaat and lemonade frothed together and topped with a glace cherry on a little plastic sword.

Uuurgh !

A drink offered around by your parents at every Christmas party in the late 70's / early 80's. Thankfully I was too young to be tempted by it.

You've never lived as a kid if you hadn't shared a snow ball or two with Grandma

She actually did pass me a cheeky one and it made me sick.
Much preferred the non alcoholic version we used to get from the Ice Cream man in the 80's....Lemonade and a blob of vanilla ice cream - 10p.

It's about the only alcohol I drink, and I'm a student. :lol

Marginally worse than being offered a glass of Harvey's Bristol Cream thats been in the drinks cabinet for at least 5 years.

Horrible stuff

Not forgetting the "Bleeding Heart"

A sherry schooner of advocaat with a dash of cherry brandy in the middle of it

Aye, once opened, a bottle of decent sherry should be consumed, just as you would a bottle of any wine, i.e. within a day or not much longer.

Bristol Cream, however, should stay in the cupboard forever or, at a push, be used in the bottom of a trifle.

Advocaat. Second only to Baileys in the "You're sober and you're really going to drink that?" stakes.


Ugh.


Best left to 'daring' maiden aunts.

Warninks Advocaat and De Kuyper Cherry Brandy held pride of place in my mum's drinks cabinet ... oh, and Babycham.
They were hard times for a budding drinker like myself.


Cue the Monty Python sketch about hardship.



Oh and I just found this out....

How spooky is that?

Am ex of mine once persuaded me to drink two shots: one containing Bailey's the other Cointreau. I was told to knock back the Bailey's first but keep it in my mouth, then hit the Cointreau and also keep it in my mouth.

When I spat the curdling mess on the floor she said: "now you know how it feels, you bastad"

Thanks for putting a smile on my face - great memory of my Gran.
