Q1: If one mixes freshly squeezed orange juice with Schnapps, does that count as one of one's five-a-day? Q2: Is he a greasy ponce, or merely pissed out of his Kopf?

I think the schnapps can be counted as one of the 5-a-day too.
Does the olive in a martini count?

Lemon squash in whisky - surely that's one?

And wine of course. Grapes are very good for you.
Do juniper berries count as one of the five-a-day?

I doubt it.
But surely cassis does!

....and....and..... supermarkets only reduce the price of cakes because after the sell by date they run out of calories.
True.

Well, not quite. The cakes have to be eaten whilst you're standing up apparently.

Some stupid programme on TV the other day was claiming you could make Baileys yourself with the following recipe:
1 cup Condensed Milk 1 cup Cream 1 cup Whiskey 1 tsp coffee 1 tsp vanilla essence
Blend in a blender and serve.
Anyone ever tried this?

I think our version included egg; at least, I remember getting squidgy lumps of stuff in it that might have been chalazae, though they could just have been bits of slightly curdled cream. It was ok, though: maybe worth doing if you get through a lot of the stuff. (Obviously, it wasn't exactly the same taste, but it was near enough.)
The nastiest thing involving Baileys I ever saw was at my cousin's wedding, where one of his squaddie mates had measures of it poured into a pint glass until it was full. I don't know if he drank it, but I'd imagine it comes pretty expensive when you buy it like that.

I once saw it mixed with, I think, cider. It was all curdled. A boyfriend of my daughter mixed it for himself at her 18th birthday party. He was very very ill later in the evening and spent the night sleeping in the garden. Mr. E. never did quite like the boy.
