Welcome to The Psycho Chicken's Alcoholic Recipe Page
Today's recipe - "Pink Pig"

You will need:

A 70cl bottle of Smirnoff Vodka (or other decent stuff - it doesn't work with cheapo vodka - I tried)
Two bags of Strawberry flavour Campino sweeties.
A couple of sealable freezer bags (you'll rip the first two at least)
A rolling pin.
A mortar and pestle (is that spelled right?)
A jug with a spout.
A bowl of warm water.
Two Anadin tablets.
A glass of water.

Method:

Drink the vodka down to the top of the Smirnoff label. If you're not using Smirnoff, then you'll just have to guess. Leave to one side.

Unwrap the Campinos (yes, they're all bloddy individually wrapped in the bag). Place a handful in the freezer bag, seal it, and knock the crap out of them with the rolling pin, taking care to break all the sweets into bits not bigger than 3-4mm across and not ripping the bag (that's the tricky bit).

Transfer the broken sweets to the mortar and pestle and grind them down until they're powder. Keep the powder in pouring jug. Repeat until you have ground up about one-and-a-half bags of the Campinos and eaten the rest. If you haven't eaten the rest then you probably won't like Pink Pig.

Add A LITTLE of the powder to the vodka by pouring carefully from the jug into the bottle. Shake vigorously (you did put the lid on didn't you?) and stand in the bowl of warm water to aid dissolving. Leave for about 10-15 minutes. Come back and give it a shoogle every now and then.

Repeat until all the powder is used. You will find that the liquid will separate into a translucent pink layer and a white cream layer on top - just keep mixing it - it'll be fine.

Once all the sweeties are dissolved, and there is no (well, almost none) sediment, put the bottle in the freezer overnight.

Shake bottle beofre serving - it looks really cool when the layers mix in the bottle. Serve cool, in a shot glass.

The next morning, take the Anadin tablets with the glass of water.

Enjoy!!

Addendum:

I feel it necessary to point out that it's the BOTTLE that you 'shake vigorously and stand in the bowl of warm water', and not yourself.

Thank you.

Well that has just ruined my impression of why you lot seemed to have so much fun producing it. I'll just have to return to it being a sugar overdose.

Hey, there's a fair amount of vodka above the label that needs 'disposing of' you know....

This sounds a bit like hard work to me. Can I put the sweeties in the blender instead?

If your blender's up to it, I suppose so. As long as the sweeties get massacred I guess it don't really matter how....

Me? I'd be slightly concerned for the blender.
