I was 14, and working as a pot-boy in our local, rural Somerset pub, and my sister worked behind the bar.
One day, a chap my sister's age came in, on R&R from the army. He decided to teach me how to drink, to impress my sister.

This consisted of feeding me Snakebite & black, until I floated out of the front door, and was violently sick down the drain near by.

Or rather, thought I was violently sick down the drain near by.

What actually happened, as I discovered at 7am the next day, when I was called into work, and handed a hose connected to the hot tap, in order to melt the huge, now frozen puddle of purple, acrid, appley-scented vomit, is that I'd missed it by a good ten feet. Combined with my first raging hangover, this was the very epitome of a character-building experience.

*memory comes flooding back*...

I once vommed quite impressively after an evening of what my friends called 'Diesel' - i.e snakebit and black with a few shots of vodka on top for good measure.

Unfortunately, that very day my lunch consisted of quite a hefty portion of Lasagne...

The technicolour yawn I launched was like an explosion in a Dulux factory.

Grim.

Snakebite & black is only good for clearing your path back from the crowded bar
(no one wants that shit down their clothes). Drinking it never occured to me.

TL:DR? 'I drank too much, threw up and cleared it up'

Wrong again, my young apprentice.
TL;DR: "Frozen snakebite vomit, when melted using hot water, has an acrid, appley-scented aroma, which is unpleasant to experience with a raging hangover."

And builds character.
