    Eh? If they put the ice in first how do they know how much cider to pour on top? Lots of places seem to put a big scoop of ice in. Memories of being a kid and always saying no to ice in my coke, since they filled the whole glass with ice first (like in the adverts) and I wanted my 50p worth

      Ah, when I last saw a pint of cider being served with ice, the ice went in at the end. And I think the reason was to get a full measure in

        Yeah, that's probably the right way to do it... not sure you might be breaking weights and measures law otherwise (though it happens). Bit of a PITA putting a handful of ice into a full-ish glass.

          Magners was not on tap until recently you bought it by the bottle.

          There are plenty of draught beer dispensing systems that could provide suitable measurements by weight / flow etc.

              Glasgow airport 2009. First place I drank it or saw it was by bottle. I tend to avoid Irish bars.

              I started seeing it on draught in England about 2015.

                I quite like the taste of elderflower, but I never drink "cordials" as they are absolutely riddled with sugar, basically scented sugar water.

                  Just found what I take to be a "grapefruit spoon".

                  Oh the shame.

                    You can console yourself with the thought that it might be a watermelon spoon.

                    Oh and people who take statins or certain blood pressure drugs shouldn't touch grapefruit.

                      I know. I've got a "justincase" packet of antihistamines with that very function.
