How to name your poison when you can't quite spell it

[mrph]

I've just updated my interests list to add beckerovka and slivovica. This is all /mel/'s fault - for introducing me to the dreadful stuff, a long time ago, and then for providing a spelling so I could finally add them as interests. Scarily, nobody else on LJ has done so...

Well, see mr_tom's comment (and reply) for slivovica - it's hideously strong, does bad things to the taste buds and leaves you feeling warm and happy. Briefly. :)

Becherovka I haven't had in years, so my memories are a little fuzzy. But quite strong, very warming, and quite spiced, iirc. Hmm. Must get some more...
