Whiskey in tea!

[Simon-JG-hr]

Much as I seem to have become a single malt fiend, I think Bells is a pretty good whisky (I'd never think of drinking it neat though). Makes a really nice combo with Canada Dry too.

caution!

alcohol + tea = toxic!!

I wouldnt do that, i once puked the hell out after having tea + wine

[Simon-JG-hr]

Well you would. You don't have to drink that/them to know it would be a vile combination.

In fact, any wine (unless sparkling), mixed with anything else (whether in the same glass or subsequent), is a recipe for disaster.

Tea + wine. Good lord!! That sound dreadful .

Not sure about Bells with Canada Dry Simon, might give it a go. Anyone else have a decent use for Bells???

[Monkey Nuts]

Tried a slug of Bells in my cuppa at the weekend, and it was a surprisingly pleasant experience!! It does bring out some of the more malty flavours in the Bells while taking some of the harshness out of it.

I've now developed a beauty of a head cold, so tea and Bells is my latest attempt to cure the common cold - it's not too effective but it's got to be better than bloody Lemsip.....

The best use for Bells and the best cure for a cold happen to be the same thing... a hot toddie.

Take a mug, fill it about a third full of cheap whisky (you might want to use less... or more!) add a heaped teaspoon of sugar and top up with boiling water. You can also add in a slice of lemon and/or a couple of cloves.

One of these before bedtime will sort you right out

EDIT: The faster you drink it the better it works!

[Simon-JG-hr]

Rum, honey and lemon - warmed, no watering down... Even better. Best tip I've ever been given - by G-man as it happens.

I quite like Bells, neat. I enjoy the licourice taste on the finish.
Or is that just me. Again.
