I thought they're quick, easy and cheap presents (if you don't do Yankee candles) just something a bit different and not the usual chocolate and wine combo. I'm sure teachers like these too but they must get lots of them.
I have a couple of teacher friends and they really do appreciate everything they receive, but they do seem to get a lot of choc!
...I'm also one who would love to see the Dooleys recipe please!
Just spoken to my parents and have a much clearer view of what to get next for them, which is great! M+S seem to have their pressies online now, so I'm hoping this means they're in store soon too

Ok so this is more toffee vodka but hits the spotmrs-moneypenny wrote: »ohhh, yes please:D
Ingredients
Bottle of vodka
Tin of golden syrup
Instructions
Open bottle of vodka, pour a large double into a glass and save for later.
Take golden syrup, replace missing vodka with golden syrup using funnel.
Replace lid, shake well, then put in freezer for at least 48hrs before drinking. Then drink as shots in chocolate shot glasses. You must keep it stored in the freezer otherwise it seperates 'we don't stop playing because we get old, we get old because we stop playing'0 -

Have tried with both and seems fine, maybe add a little more syrup to the cheaper one. Its quite a sticky drink but tres warming'we don't stop playing because we get old, we get old because we stop playing'0 -

It doesnt have the creamy side of dooleys but I don't like creamy based drinks anyway. Its more a toffee vodka, it is very sweet but I make some every year and it compares to the one I buy n portugal. I think the werthers and skittles ones are horrible, made the skittle one once ughh'we don't stop playing because we get old, we get old because we stop playing'0 -

Not enough werthers. I made it last year and used 3 bags in one bottle. It was yummy.

choccymoose The secret to skittles is to separate the colours
... we made a load at uni 1 big bag of skittles... and 2 small... maybe...
different bottle for each colour, or you get mud coloured ick,
and strain out all the bits, super yummy!
red and orange and blue were my favourites - we made them when they were doing the special limited edition blue skittles... useless I know sorry lol.
vodka gummy bears are good too
xI hope you know your capable, & brave, & significant.
even when it feels like your not....0
