Twisted Vimto


The best cough medicine in the world (well today at least)
I'm not milking this honest but if you're feeling rough try this subtle twist on the ever popular hot ribena cold remedy.
Serves: One poorly person
Preparation time:
If you are not poorly 5 mins, if you are feeling badly well a bit longer.
What you need:
a cold (well not actually but you know what I mean).
a mug.
boiling water enough for your mug!
slice of lemon.
a good glug of vimto.
a spoon or two of honey.
a shot of whiskey (nothing fancy).
someone to make it for you!
To serve:
a sofa.
something good on the telly.
a duvet optional!
What to do:
1. Boil the kettle
2. Add all the other ingredients to the mug.
3. cough weakly from the sofa in attempt to speed up your DIY Pharmacist.
4. Stir the mug and squeeze the lemon with a teaspoon.
5. Drink when it's cool enough cupping the mug in both hands, it's traditional to say "ahhh" after the first sip and try not to feel quite so sorry for yourself.
