MMMM -My favourite liquer - with the coffee beans it is named Sambuca con Mosca which translated means 'with flies'. There are many continental liquers based on aniseed but this is by far the smoothest.

I find sambuca too sweet. Any ideas on making it less sweet without adding fruitjuices.

Alternate sips with extra strong unsweetened espresso - this thread is making me salivate (slaver to you :D)

I like most anise drinks

I used to love a large pernod in teh top of a pint of dry cider. Or with lemonade over lots of ice.

I got leathered on Ouzo one night in a bar in Benllech whilst at Uni. Amazing as it had no affect till we walked outside then no one could stand up!

I also like teh licorice baseddrinks liek Galliano

Worst hangovers ever on any annisette drink ,Sambuca, Pernod, Ricard, Ouzo , etc. even 12 hours later you take a drink of water and you are s**tfaced again, (think its because of the high sugar content)

a tip I learned many years ago , never drink a drink you can't see through . e,g, Bushmills and water , no problemo . Cheap red wine .....bad head following morning :cool:

Galliano is to die for, i once drank nearly a whole bottle of that whilst at richards one night, and 'forgot' to replace it, Glayva is lovely too

Glayva is pretty much the only drink I don't like. The smell of makes me psycodelic yodel

Just don't drink it flashy, was on it last night and now wish i hadn't touched it, been tasting it throughout the day. Then again if someone offers me another one i'll say yes please.
