There was a trend in some NYC cocktail bars a few years ago of using Buckfast in cocktails. After an unpleasant experience with it in Uni decades ago I’d avoided it. But the cocktails were good so I thought I’d give it another go and chose to make Buckfast Negronis. They were *amazing*, I had quite a few.
What I neglected to consider is the sugar and caffeine content of Buckfast. I was up all night and totally wired.
Love buckfast, I can sip away on super Sundays from 1200 until 2100 and watch all the football. It’s the only drink where I genuinely enjoy the taste. The only thing that comes close is a refreshingly cold beer on a roasting hot day.
I wonder how many of the missing bottles were actually paid for.
As soon who grew up in North Lanarkshire, there is no fouler drink on earth.
I drank this stuff religiously when I was younger, now I can’t look at the stuff without boaking
It’s so good to be able to pick one up when doing the shopping. Morrisons are legends for this. Other supermarkets are happy to sell all sorts of cheap cider/vodka/wine. No idea why we get treated like smack heads for wanting a bottle. Bravo Morrisons 🫡
£10 for a bottle of Bucky? Used to get change from a 5er!
A fucking tenner for a bottle of chronic? Jesus.
Love the addition of security tags 😂
Glad to see it’s not in the fridge, top marks Morrisons.
