Probably the same reason that
330ml bottle Bacardi Breezer Orange
330ml bottle Smirnoff Ice
330ml bottle WKD Blue
tastes like a fat frog ice lolly...... drunken experimenting!

Here's a thing... did you know that there is no sugar in vodka? So if you susbstitute Splenda for the sugar, it is suitable for diabetics - almost a health food in fact!!!

No sugar - excellent news. Must go and drink some ......... except I don't have any in the house. OK, must go and buy some - who has the cheapest rough vodka? I have a Netto, an Aldi and I'm sure a Lidl fairly near:D

Just found this one in my recipe scrapbook
Irish Cream

3 fresh eggs
1/2 pint single cream
5oz whiskey
1/4 tsp vanilla essence
2 -3 dessertspoons demerara sugar
5oz evaporated milk
2 tsps coffee essence (camp is good)

Whisk well and bottle. Keep refrigerated and serve chilled. Supposed to keep for 4 weeks (but never lasted that long in my house ) and makes about 1 + 1/2 pints.

I find that a drop of Drambuie added gives a true "Baileys" flavour!

That's the recipe I used to use although I seem to remember using condensed milk rather than evaporated, but then I don't think I added sugar, so basically amounts to the same thing
