WTF is that? Menthol Syrup?

 

[Pudsey Bear]

It's a very old French drink, I first had it in 89 when its was baking hot and I asked for a cooling drink in a cafe bar in the village of Pons.

Its called a few different names but Devil Mint is the idea, I call it Diablomont when i ask for it as that's what the first one was called that, it's amazingly refreshing but sweet as F so I'm limited on it, I looked up the price in the UK, £10, here €3.30.

I like to poor the lemonade first and watch the mint syrup slowly get absorbed.

Diabolo, I'd guess the closest word we have, is diabolic.

So you dont stick Vodka or gin it then?

 

[Pudsey Bear]

Nah, don't drink often, I got a bottle of limoncello though that's gone TF.

Heading towards this area tomorrow - now which road shall I take? Done any of these in the Cevennes Pudsey?

 

[Pudsey Bear]

We might have Tony but we were more to the east of the A75 I think.

Another stunning area, probably best to do all the roads.

Even the tame roads are breathtaking, and you have time to look around too.
