Am actually liking the snow ball idea! smile

I know my folks will like them...casts me back to when I was a kid and they were being drunk over Christmas then (am 42 now).

Pina coladas sound rather good too! wink

Another one for Snowballs here, the recipe I use is:

One 2 litre jug
1 bottle Warniks Advocat
3 cans of diet 7up or Sprite
Quarter bottle of brandy (175ml)
Dash of Roses Lime cordial

I usually have all the above chiling in the fridge/freezer so no need to bother with ice.
Thanks, will probably go with that one. Is ice advisable if ingredients not chilled?

I would say so, might not be the best otherwise (although I've never tried it 'warm' to be fair).
No danger of it being a warm drink I can tell you! All stored in the garage as I type, plus I bought ice so we're ready to rock n roll around the Christmas tree! smile

Ironically, I'm not convinced our visitors will manage to get here due to weather frown

TVM for all the input on this thread everyone.

Just to clarify. Are these the quantities for a 2 litre qty of the drink? Mix all of it together as above. Sorry if I'm being dense.

Merry Christmas.
