Great idea Eileen - as a follow on to Favourite Meal, where and what was your favourite drink in Arillas.
Mine was at the Coconut - so many years ago now that I can't remember which year it was, but I know it was the first year that Kostas and Perry had the bar. In those days there were no shutters to close the bar off, and early one morning I wandered in and asked if I could have a coffee. They were not really open, Hannah was clearing up from the night before, but you know how it is in Arillas, she made me a coffee anyway. And then proceeded to remove the cash draw from the unlocked till and count last nights takings! - As innocent as Arillas is today, it was even more so back then.
But it's not the coffee - I have strayed off the point (as usual)
It was early evening, dinner had just been consumed and I was feeling REALLY FULL. (I just don't know when to stop with all that lovely food in Arillas) Hannah was being very patient with me as I tried to decide what I could manage to drink, when Kostas brought over a small glass with a reddish-brown drink, and suggested that before I had anything else I should sip that slowly.
The drink was called Ramazotte (think that's how you spell it) - an Italian drink from Milan, which unfortunately you cannot buy in the UK as it really does work! It tasted a bit like medicine but not in an unpleasant way, and by the time I had finished it I was feeling much better and ready enough to start a good nights drinking - could even have taken on Phil after that
(sorry mate)
That was my favourite drink in Arillas, not just because of the drink, but because of the wonderful kindness and hospitality that it came with.
