A twinkle is vodka, elderflower liqueur and topped up with champagne! If you fancy something hardcore though I made skittles vodka at Christmas and that blows your socks off!!

Excellent Woo Woo. I may avail myself of a bit of my homemade sloe gin (three year vintage) in due course also.

I thought about asking if Voice was hogging his slow gin, 48, but then realised it might taste like gin, in which case, I don't want any

48 unfortunately there was almost no sloe harvest last year, so I couldn't make any for Xmas as usual. I always give some away to friends. I have a small amount of some I made three years ago to get me thru until next year. I could auction a tot off to the highest bidder?

Kin its nothing like normal gin, although that's the principal ingredient. Coz I don't like straight gin. But sloe gin.....very warming for the winter.

Even that sounds good, Lulu, I've got to wash my hair because I've volunteered to work tomorrow. I was supposed to be going for lunch and cocktails. Sad, sad,sad face.

Tweed, 'Skittles vodka' - is that as good as it sounds ? Bloody hell at this rate I'm going to end up getting shit-faced the next time I go out.

You've talked me into it, Voice, cheers me dear

western I've only had a twinkle in a bar so don't know where you get the elderflower liqueur but they are gorgeous!!

Skittles vodka is good but strong, online instructions on mixmydrink.com, if anyone fancies having a go!

OWW and Lulu, they sell elderflower liqueur in Waitrose, think it's called something like St. Germain ( comes in a very pretty bottle too, if you'll excuse me sounding like a right girly )
