    Perfect winter drink:

    1 Teaspoon of Bovril.
    2 Teaspoons of Lard.
    + boiling hot water
    + (optional 1 teaspoon of instant coffee if you need a caffeine boost)

    • Except modern Bovril's just yeast extract with a bit of concentrated beef stock in for flavour.Nairn
    • Huh, well shut my mouth - it's actually got beef in it these days? WTF? Last time i checked it was all yeasty?!Nairn
    • Beef Broth (50%) [Water, Beef Bones],
      Yeast Extract (27%) [contains Barley, Wheat, Oats, Rye], Salt, Water, Colour, Corn Starch, Beef Powder, MSG      Nairn
    • Well, demi-MSGNairn
    • I thought the same until I saw beef was back in it. MSG is fine, it's naturally found in Kelp seaweed.shapesalad
    • I must admit Bovril would be better without the 27% yeast extract as that tends to overwhelm the beef taste. Bring back beef tea I say:shapesalad
