Blackcurrant

You're ment to add blackcurrant...

This drink's great!! Gets ya smashed as and the cordial makes it ohh so easy to drink =) *party on*

Blackcurrent

Blackcurrent is NOT implicit in this drink! I refer you to a 'snakebite black'.

The majority of people who think you're meant to add blackcurrent are usually young folk who dont know any better.

I had one for the first time last night... yuummmmmmmmmmmmmm! Very nice drink :P I want one now! A must try!

Add blackcurrent so the drink is red.

Forgot the cordial...

ABSOLUTELY AWESOME drink, the mixture curdles in your stomach thats why it messes with your head so bad! That makes it 1/3 lager, 1/3 cider and top it up with a cordial (blackcurrant best). For an extreme version, try adding Creme de Cassis (basically alcoholic ribena!!!)

Snakebite

To the person above - Snakebite is without the blackcurrant!!!

That's why "Snakebite and Black" is called "Snakebite and Black".... (or Diesel - depending on where you're from)

Get it right

Why else would it be called snakebite if it doesn't have blackcurrent in it numb nuts.

Blackcurrant

posted by Cockney Cunt @ 06:59AM, 11/27/06

It IS relevant 2 add blackcurrant, because it's easier to down the pint that way =] Every mug know's that!

What can i say, this is my most favourite drink at the mo!

It needs the blackcurrant, my rugby team and I spent a week in england and drank nothing but. It is a must.

Feel the real bite.

Well i'm pretty shocked that no one adds tabasco to the mix...you should try it, its pretty fucked up. Oh and the blackcurrent is absolutely relevant.
