Cramps Cure

ithidrial got me into this cure.

If you have cramps, the best thing to take isn't a pill. It's a shot of Drambuie.

Yes, a liqueur is the best cure for cramps I've found.

Drambuie is a sweet liqueur based of of Scotch with herbs in it. It's moderately expensive, but if the only thing you're using it for is a cramps cure, it's not that bad.

And, here are some recipes!

First, the good old Drambuie on the rocks. A shot of drambuie poured over ice. Drink until all is gone, including the melted ice.

Second, a rusty nail. This is a favorite of the household. Pour equal parts drambuie and Scotch. And again, drink until all is gone, including the melted ice. You're not supposed to use 'good' Scotch for this, but we like the taste of the drink with moderately expensive single malt.

Third, if you don't feel like something sweet, as both above are sweet, there's the drambuie and soda. Pour a shot of drambuie over ice into a tall glass, squeeze two lime slices into glass and fill glass with soda water. (You can use lime juice from concentrate, but it doesn't taste as well... it's about two splashes.)

health, drinking
