I will eat, drink and read on a plane
I will eat, drink and read, it's not that hard
I will even do it in my backyard
Perfect cocktails:
#1 Grasshopper, Zealous Family recipe:
1 part creme de cacao
2 parts creme de menthe
2 parts cream
shake up really well with lots of ice
serve with nutmeg (sprinkled on top)
#2 Virgin Gin and Tonic over the sunset:
1 x UDL, makes four little cups. Drink really fast because they come to take your rubbish away after 20 mins of giving you the drink!
#3 Gin Cocktail. Modified from Hairy Canary's 'Sunset something-or-other...'
juice of 1/2 a lime
juice of 1/2 an orange
1 and 1/2... oh, go on, 2 shots of gin
1/2 shot of amaretto
a few drops of vanilla essence
shake well with ice

You must have had one too many Grasshoppers at Christmas (but who's counting?) because the Zealous family recipe for Grasshoppers is ONE part creme de cacao and TWO parts creme de menthe, not the other way around! You also omitted the essential sprinkle of nutmeg on top. Where is your sense of civic responsibility? Publishing incorrect information leading to crappy cocktails is probably an offence under the liquor licensing laws! Please watch the grasshopper expert at work more carefully next time and remember not to drink and blog.
Love always,
Your mum.

Duly noted and corrected. Thanks for watching out for me, oh wise one.
