No explanation why this drink is notable, or even if it exists. Since its creation in 2007, the article has consisted only of a recipe and has been pretty much completely unsourced. Already twice deleted via PROD in 2006. This should finally be deleted. JIP | Talk 11:22, 21 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I can find sources to suggest that it exists but none of them look like RS to me. I'm not sure if maybe there is some decent coverage offline somewhere? [1] [2] [3] Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 12:08, 21 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- The first source isn't even consistent with the two others, it claims the drink is alcoholic. JIP | Talk 12:10, 21 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, the sources are terrible. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 17:45, 21 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete could be moved to Wikitext or wherever they store cookbooks in the larger Wiki universe. Nothing of note to be kept here. Oaktree b (talk) 14:54, 21 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I found a singular source from Oshkosh Northwestern with the listed name and ingredients.[4] It doesn't seem to be particiularly notable but I'm unsure how it has gone from Cheshire to Wisconsin if that is a correct statement in the article.

Delete per above; didn't find good sources either. ~EdGl talk 21:34, 21 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Wholly non-notable; a relic of Wikipedia's worst years. RobinCarmody (talk) 21:45, 21 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
