IT WAS THE premier alcoholic drink of many an 18th birthday party around Ireland – and it’s still going strong.

The fact that it clocks in at just 15% alcohol meant it was perfect for such occasions.

Of course, the Dublin-made liquor’s most famous iteration is the green apple version – but other flavours listed reveal a delightful theme:

• Sour Irish Green Apple
• Sour Raspberry
• Sour Blueberry

The sour is strong in Mickey Finns – and you could certainly taste it.

It was like alcoholic apple drops in a glass

Whoops!

You could only really get it in Ireland and the UK – so teenagers around the world don’t get to enjoy that… distinctive taste.

For shame

It’s just one of those things you have to experience for yourself – for better or worse
