I vaguely remember vodka and lime being a thing.

My first tipple, as a student was Double Diamond :-0 it didn't work wonders for me though as I'd bring it back up - I was a very cheap drunk :-0

I'd trade all my tomorrows for a single yesterday

ZZzzz, can't say I've tried that combo as I'm not a spirits drinker.

I haven't had a Guinness for years, in fact it's tea or Vimto and lashings of water here - not together LOL
