I came across a recipe for homemade sweet and sour mix and knew that a fresh version would be far superior to the bar mix that you get in the mixer section of the grocery store. I was absolutely right. I am not much of a drinker these days. You see, my hangovers have become disproportionate to the amount that I drink. A two-cocktail-evening seems to translate to a two-day hangover. No fun when you have responsibilities and cannot sleep until noon and then wake up and get french fries (those were the days, no?).

On December 26, 1997, this improbable film is Spice World, a clear parody movie starring the Spice Girls themselves, arguably the biggest musical group in the world at the time, in a movie you barely remember.
