WARNING: These colourful treats could get you drunk (Picture: Cavendish Press)

OK, it’s happened, we admit it. We Brits might be just be as obsessed with alcohol as the rest of the world thinks we are.

A couple in Preston, Lancashire, have created the world’s first deep-fried alcohol, making it quite possibly the weirdest (and best) pub snack ever.

They launched the colourful £3 products at a local event and the treats sold out within hours – despite being, err, rather interesting looking.

John Clarkson and his wife Corinne used the traditional British sherry trifle as the inspiration behind their creations – soaking sponge in alcohol such as Bailey’s and the strawberries and cream and cola varieties of Sidekick.




And yes, sour apple schnapps is also involved.

There’s no news yet as to how they tasted, but we’ll keep you updated as and when we get the intel.
