Iced Coffee
-
Yesterday I made up a 2 Litre batch of coffee to use for a refreshing drink during the current heat-wave. This evening after dinner, I made myself a large one and was sitting on the couch, sipping away, when I thought to myself, self, I thought, what this needs is a slug of Rum. Unfortunately I didn't have any, in fact I didn't have any liquor at all. I generally don't keep alcoholic drinks at home except for Christmas-time. Christmas!! Ah yes, in the back of the kitchen cupboard the remnants of a 1 pint bottle of Brandy I had used to make my Christmas cake last year. 1 slug later and all is well. Magic. :-D

That does sound nice. I haven't had condensed milk for yonks. Reminds me of the condensed milk sandwiches I used to have as a nipper.

That's why I didn't volunteer to be a Mentor. I mean, wearing a Toga, all of my loose change would fall out. Not to mention there are no pockets to secrete my bottles in.

Maybe McDonald's will offer that soon; their current offering leaves much to be desired.

Yes! Whenever I go to our regular phở place, I always get iced coffee w/milk. Yummy.

Sounds nice, but it would mean buying the Mint Liqueur and I'm not sure that I could stand the loss of man points involved in that transaction. :laugh:

Yes. You've already lost several in mixing coffee with brandy. ;)

We were given sugar sandwiches too. But if you think that's bad, my sister used to like vinegar sarnies! X| That was too much, even for a dustbin guts like me.

I'm with __Maxx__ on this one. The hot version however does have some problems. It is known on restaurant menus and the like as <shhhh>FRENCH</shhhh> Coffee.

I disagree - the coffee keeps you awake while you get roaring drunk. What could possibly be more manly than that?

Umm... Yeah, that's a point. I was looking at it more from the angle of "adulterating" the goddarn thing with coffee. :)

Coffee with anything other than hot water is just plain wrong, like scotch with anything or blondes with brains - it just doesn't work!

Yes, I also keep my liquor in the bank. In home is not secure enough – thefts, fires etc.:~

That is precisely why there are insurance companies. Keep your 'valuables' at home, but get them insured just in case... :)

Weeell, it's like this. To start with I had forgotten that I had the Brandy, so I was resigned to plain old cawfee. What's even worse is there is only enough of the good stuff left for one more. :((
