It would be something of a disappointment if the mandatory gin/rum/tonic/madeira/port supplies from M and S couldn't be replenished this Christmas, along with a few bottles of Sancerre. Obviously I have a meagre few gallons (9.5) and pints (35) of other stuff available but there really is no...

Wow you guys put a lot of effort into your labels. I mean they look great don't get me wrong.

I quite liked the Wilko 30 bottle Medium Dry White wine kit. That was £20 when I bought it which I thought was a good price.

I have a roast every 1 or 2 months, which is often lamb or chicken. I hardly ever eat meat, particularly not beef as it is so dense. To me there is almost no difference between a meat sausage and a veggie one so that was an easy swap. Yesterday we tried the plant chef mushroom stuff ones they...

I like a couple of eggs on my pizza, anyone else do that?

May god be with you lol

But does it actually taste like celery? Or just lemon/orange/ginger as Ankou mentioned

That’s like one of those gimmicky ones surely? Like lettuce wine or celery lol

Lol man I stopped using fresh for a lot of things for the same reason.

Guava I got tinned from Ocado, Lychees also tinned from Amazon, I think it was a 6 pack https://www.amazon.co.uk/Golden-Swan-Lychee-567-g/dp/B07JPDLWVF/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=lychees&qid=1633249802&sr=8-3

Christmas Pudding Wine is gorgeous, made this years batch back in April ready for the winter. Tastes like Madeira/Sherry/port. Pumpkin Wine is gross lol So is Passata Wine. Guava Wine is one of this years favourites, along with Lychee.
