Well, there is always the gooseberry drink that was featured on tonights Gardeners World - allotment special programme. If I recall, it was:

A load of gooseberries, liquidised and strained (looked about half a litre), some (a tin) condensed milk to sweeten, about half a large tin of stout, vanilla, and a dash of rum. Was there nutmeg in there as well? Maybe?

Seemed to go down well.....
