Remember my parents having it in the cupboard at christmas Advocat or something-what does it taste like? I always used to look at the bottle and think that looks yummy like custard-but I never had it. Do you get it in? catherine xx

had it with lemonade yummy it was bought some made up snowballs a few years ago and they didnt taste the same and didnt like them

its quite sweet and has a fizzy tingle to it dont think ya can get bladdered on it though lol.

Snowballs I love it.....I always have it in....

SNOWBALLS!!! I love them,reminds me of christmas pastlol It was the only thing mum would drink and I was always allowed a little one!lol

Funny, I saw some earlier this week, while out shopping and went on a trip down 'Memory Lane'. I haven't bought any for many years. Some people drank it with lemonade mixed in, - a snowball. Egg flip was a less creamy version and drank neat. I think they have a sherry / port taste ? Gwyn

of course you get bladdered you add lime and vodka or is brandy

why's it called snowballs if it's yellow? catherine xx

now we all sknow the tale about eating yellow .....

is snow not yellow then Catherine?

Snowballs, Dad used to let me have a small one at christmas, Advoca, lemonade and a cherry to top it off. Haven't had one in years. Have tried egg nog too but not as keen on that. My aunt-in-law makes it fresh every christmas. Fiona. x Forgot to add that a Snowball should be made with Advoca and Babycham, dad would never let me have it that way though!! :((

I got a babycham in the fridge lol daughter won it at the xmas fayre last weekend-ooher might give that a go later. lol dawnie-that's why you got yellow snow then- Hey when you were a kid did you use to eat the snow? catherine xx

Yes we was poor and had to do whatever we could to get a drink lol

Hayley, You just reminded me, Cherry B and cider. Loved it, couldn't drink too many though as I was soon flat on my back. I've still got some of the babysham and cherry B glasses from years ago, old land lady was selling up and she gave them to me. Fiona. x

how about snakebites used to sell loads of that in a pub I worked at

I used to work in a pub too Hayley. Tended to stay away from the snakebites, seem to send SOME of our customers a little funny, and not in a laughing way. Fiona. x
