To celebrate Saint Patrick's Day, I've decided to push the Irishness up to 11, by making this Double Irish ...

The King's Ginger
As I may have mentioned once or twice, I love ginger. I could happily have lived on Old Jamaica Ginger Beer as a child (if only my parents had let me!). And I confess that as a student I once stood in Tesco and worked out that Ginger Wine was the cheapest way ...
