Mead was the first thing (according to my Mum) that I ever got tipsy on. I was only 3 years old and stole peoples drinks when they weren't looking. She said I wouldn't stop saying 'Hello' to everyone as if I'd never met them before.

My mom used to rub blackberry brandy on my gums when i was teething, so i now know where my drinking habit came from. Oh, and this also did not help:
