I think I've just tried the most minging alcoholic drink ever....

We brought some back from Budapest and have just been brave enough to try a bit. Urgh. Has anyone else tried it? At first I thought it was alright, a bit like Jagermeister...but then there was this horrid, horrid bitter aftertaste! Bleurgh. The rest of my glass has gone back in the bottle. Trouble is, I've bought bottles for my friends. Bloody hell.

The bottle is attractive enough! Maybe your friends can use it as a decoration.

I was about to say the same, at least it looks decorative :o)

You just have to offer some for all visitors in your home for the next 5 years. Then maybe, just maybe you won't have to let it all down the drain... :oP

Hmm, yes, it is quite a pretty bottle. And yes, I shall be using the rest of mine as drain cleaner. I shall probably suggest my friends do the same thing and then put a nice flower in the bottle.

Good idea to use it as a vase. If people ask about the original content, you always have a story.

Anyhow, the idea of serving it to your friends was bad anyway. You'd end up being friendless lol

Is it some sort of typical drink in Budapest? I don't understand why you didn't try it before buying it, lol! It's a really nice looking bottle, though =o) .

It's the national drink of Hungary!! We'd heard that it was a bit of a speciality so expected it to be nice but we were sooooo wrong!

Bit of advice.....get your frined pissed on something else then offer them this! It will be drunk and they won't notice how minging it is! That my secret to getting rid of manky alcohol....especially stuff brought back from holidays! lol
