Southern Belle from Aldi is also the same product but about £4 cheaper.
I drink it neat with ice, with lemonade or coca cola.

"Soco" reminds me only of "Boco", one of the diesel engines out of the Thomas the Tank Engine books. Anyone who adopts this abbreviation in earnest would not need any further work undertaken on them if eugenics ever came back into fashion.

I had 10 neat southern comforts on my 18th Birthday (several decades ago). I have vague memories of being sick out of my cousin's car window, and waking up with my head in a bucket - and several weeks later being shown the cini film my parents had taken, along with a tape recording.

I've never touched it since and the mere smell of it makes me vomit, even now!

Add Dry Ginger and a dash of lime cordial to make a Gatsby. Like drinking pop but gets you off your face pretty quickly(if that's what you like!).

I drink it with diet coke but haven't had it for years - went off it after drinking a wee bit too much of it one night

Used to love the stuff but don't try this at home kids. Back when I was young and reckless I took a bottle (the size that's not much bigger than a beer bottle on a minibus trip to Sheffield) Swigged it as if it was beer & was really ill with it.

Can't touch the stuff anymore...

I drink it neat usually, though sometimes I have it with my tie askew and shirt hanging out.

I drank 3/4 of a bottle neat a few years ago and got so drunk that I ended up getting sick all over my mate's carpet. He wasn't impressed and I haven't touched it since.

I like Southern Comfort, but i dont normally buy any to have in the house. For some reason, when its sat in the kitchen cupboard, I dont fancy it.

I tend to have one or two on a night out in the pub.

Haven't had it since the night the OH and I moved into this house 8 years ago. I got hammered sharing a 1L bottle of it with my mate and we were both very unwell the next day.

When I was younger I hated whisky, but loved Southern Comfort. Over the last couple of years my tastes have changed, and I have become a big fan of Single Malts. I recently tried some Southern Comfort, and found it far too sweet.
