Hey guys i was wondering if any of you have ever come across a drink called Rumpleminze? it is a peppermint scnapps from Germany it used to be my choice of drink a long time ago.Problem is when i moved from Northern Ireland to live in England the only way to get it was having it sent over or bring some back when over visiting my folks as was never available in England.Problem is now cant get it anywhere [Frown]

but i recently done a search and found its still available in the United States and just wondered if any of you had ever seen it.I know you might think why doesnt he try Germany well i have and cant get it there either as its now owned by Diagio and when you call them they dont even know what it is.Thanks

Apparently they don't ship overseas.

Never tried it, but I'm solidly hooked on Irish Cream!

I had a bad experience with that stuff a few decades ago and have been avoiding it ever since. [Razz]

Bryan i had a shocking experience once on it but will not stop me drinking it :)they probably dont ship because of taxes being added on will mail them and see anyway.Failing that its a bottle of vodka and dissolve a couple of packs of polo mints into it [Smile]

If you do a Google search on "mint infused vodka" there are web sites that tell you how to make stuff like that. My wife has done it with good results. You can infuse all kinds of flavors.
