"The Mahdist Sourcebook: Volume 1" Question

[schoenkoenig]

With regard to appropriate drinks, I had a glass of tea at an Ethiopian restaurant lately. Well, of course, it came spiked with Ouzo. What was even more surprising was that when I was halfway through it they came and poured it right up straight with Ouzo. Twice they did... All that for $5.

Certainly, we now know why the Mahdists went up against the Abyssinians and their lush ways.
