Elf’s Drinky Links (V)
Welcome to the fifth Elf’s Drinky Links, late but here all the same!
So, with the many April Fool’s jokes this week, I thought I’d give you a bit of a fun cocktail:
Drinky: Black Magic
When served it’s off white in color due to the pineapple juice but as it settles down the color of dark rum appears. Wait
until the second or third cocktail and then introduce this, its fun watching peoples reactions as their drink changes colour.
Ingredients:
* 150ml Pineapple juice
* 30ml dark rum
* Dash of orange squash
* Dash of lemon juice
* 10ml grenadine syrup
* 30ml Peter Herring cherry liqueur
Method:
1. Blend all the ingredients with three cubes of ice
2. Pour this in a cocktail glass and serve

The University of Melbourne study showed that people who use the Internet for personal reasons at work are about 9 percent more productive that those who do not.
Another study, shows that having sisters make for better mental health in families?
