The Original Recipe For A Bloody Mary

Raspberry leaf tablets are recommended to speed up a woman’s time in labour, while a cure for PMT is to “take horseradish, half a teacupful, and one pint of good gin. Mix. Take a tablespoon three times a day”. The book observes: “Ladies who use this remedy say they have never found anything to equal it.”


Personally, I find taking three shots of good gin during the day is both the cause and cure for almost any problem. (Doh!)
