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

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

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.

Many spirits pair well with ice.
When you buy spirits you pay for the measure. When you buy a pint of Magners with ice, surely you get less cider?

By the time the main course arrived, it had warmed up. When the chocolate dessert was served, the wine was at room temp and a perfect accompaniment for the course.
