Nan's was never "bland and weak". It was so strong we'd occasionally dilute it with super-strength, knock-me-down-chuck-me-up scrumpy, just to reduce the inevitable visions.

You feed trifle to geese? I wouldn't think they'd care for it, but that just shows what I know, I suppose.

I guessed what "scrumpy" was, knowing the verb "scrump" and Terry Pratchett's "Scumble" (made from apples... well, mostly apples).

What I hadn't realized was that the rest of the world uses "cider" to refer exclusively to fermented apple juice. In the US we distinguish between "hard cider" and the regular kind, which is fresh unfiltered unfermented apple juice. Apparently this distinction in usage came about shortly after Prohibition.

In any case, as I avoid alcohol even in cough syrup, I think I'll pass on any trifle Marc offers me.

Its similar in the suisse - theres "süßer Most" (juice) and "Most" (fermendet juice)
Or something similar

Somehow I don't think this will be considered, yet it will go into the gallery.
