i know snakebites are banned now cause they’ve actually been classified as dirty pints. but my student union still serves the fake snakebites; lager, cider, and blackcurrant (as opposed to guiness, cider and blackcurrant), which honestly tastes like ribena gone wrong and doesn’t really get u drunk. the american exchange students love it though.

KY: A glass a day is good for health….a bottle is bad

Grant S.: Yah of the things I missed when I came here was proper redbull…not the horrible orange goop they put in cans here. I just shoot in neat BTW kids don’t be crazy and do amphetamines with loads of double vodka redbulls! Snakebite….especially with diamond white and stella, killer man!

cheekky: It was barred in some places due to the rowdy behaviour it tends to cause, student places still sell it by the gallon.

easyriderlovescs: Actually Vodka + Orange Juice = Screwdriver

macdude: I’m an alcohol person haha, I have pretty much everything, I’m a big single malt fan too…will write about that sometime too.

let’s see…
vodka + redbull = vodka redbull
vodka + lime = vodka lime
vodka + orange juice = vodka orange
vodka + sprite = vodka sprite
vodka + ice = vodka on the rocks
vodka + nothing = vodka neat

not forgetting…
bourbon + coke = bourbon coke

i also agree with ky, drinking is bad for the health, especially to the liver! do drink in moderation and please do not drive and drive. get a designated driver or hail a cab! spare a thought to yourself and other people! last but not least do not mix and match alcohol! for example don’t mix beer with wine or wine with whisky or beer with vodka.

Didn’t say it got banned everywhere! Just in some London pubs that I knew, where “snake-bites”, and other delicacies were also banned.
These pubs were much more likely to need to maintain order than “student nights”, with all due respect.

Worth noting that Vodka and Red Bull in the UK is different, because Red Bull in Europe contains a hellava whack of caffeine, which combined with the taurine, gives the energy boost. Which combined with the vodka gives a “party all night” sensation…and more. It got banned in many bars even before I left the UK, as it can be a potent mix.
Red Bull in Malaysia only contains the amino acid taurine, which on it’s own has no determinable effect apart from the mild sugar rush of the syrupy gloop ;(
Best just shoot the Vodka iced!! Rinse and repeat
