Plymouth Gin and Ambrosia Custard (from a carton) 50/50 ratio.
It was either that or warm Pinot Grigio.
Mike Thornton, you were and always will be a genius.
I miss you and your bluff-calling ways!

That sounds hideous
Just to clarify, did that fall into the worst or best category? ;o) xxx

The best, obviously! ;)
If it had been Gordon's then it would have been a whole other story!

Just to clarify...
The Big Chill, Sunday afternoon, Mike's birthday, no cold booze left, gas for fridge run out...
"ok mike" says I, noting the diminished vittles...
"it's either warm Pinot Grigio or gin and custard..."
Without batting an eyelid or drawing breath the reply came...
"WARM White wine? What the FUCK do you take me for, you cunting Philistine?"
"OK then, big fella, looks like gin and custard it is then..."
And so i topped up the half full litre bottle of Plymouth gin with some premium ambrosia custard, fresh from the carton and gave it a good shuggle.
And thus a legend was born ;)
Every year since then I have celebrated his birthday (coincidentally my daughter's saints day) by re-enacting that momentous day in the correct fashion ;)
Just wish he was still around to help keep the tradition alive!

Fucking delicious!

Hm, alcoholic custard
I think you may be on to something, there

On the other hand, I loathe brandy butter, so perhaps not

If you want alcoholic custard
Frangipane filled sweet ravioli and a raspberry coulis with Amaretto creme anglaise. I invented it for a catering exam and managed to persuade the Italian examiner it wasn't heresy to treat pasta in such a way so it clearly wasn't that bad. I have a recipe somewhere if you can be bothered.

Then you battered the ravioli and deep-fried them, right?

Right?

No? Ok then...
