two follow ups to this:

1. pour the lager in after the cider, or it will froth everywhere.

2. The ribena mixture makes what is known as a Purple Nasty.

3. They are much better coldish.

4. To the above recipe, add 1 shot of Blue Cucaro to concoct a Green Monster. (note! drink very few of these, the combination of 40 proof alchohol plus the mixture of hard cider and lager will knock you right on your ass.
