Hope it's not something illicit  :o :o :o - moonshine?  Maybe some orange liqueur?  Maybe some honey and spices?

One of my cousins has a "secret" recipe for a holiday drink made with buttermilk and orange juice - however there are other ingredients that she will not reveal and it has become an ongoing ambition of mine to figure out the recipe. 
The stuff is delicious and is almost addictive.  One cup is never enough!

In Oz we would call this person a "Wanker". Make up your own and and tell lher you have improved on her recipe.

It put me in mind of an aunt who had a recipe for marshmallow salad which was always a star at Christmas. Disgusting thing it was but everyone craved the recipe. She died never having divulged it. Just as well.

If anyone can work it out andiesenji, you can ;) ;)  I can never understand why anyone keeps a recipe a secret. She obviously never makes it in front of you.

She hides it from everyone - even her own children.  At one time she had the idea of selling the "formula" but could never find anyone interested.  I suppose she still has hopes.
It has absolutely no liquor in it.  I can drink it and I have a severe allergy to alcohol - I can cook with it if the food is cooked long enough, or baked but raw alcohol causes edema in my throat and other scary symptoms.
She wouldn't, in any case, use alcohol.  She is a strict Baptist and believes that alcohol is the way to Hell - dancing is almost as bad and has never gotten over the fact that her eldest son owns a supper club....... ;D

The stuff has spices in it - it is frothy (no egg whites) rather like the foamed milk ladled on caffe latte, and it is good either chilled or at room temp.   
I have tried to duplicate it dozens of times and have come close but that elusive "special" taste has eluded me.  Maybe someday.

Very descriptive Gretchen. There are quite a few people out there who won't share recipes, jolly stupid. I take it as a compliment if asked for a recipe.

I agree cookie 1 but I have to confess that many years ago I gave a recipe to someone who was always trying to "one up" me. Instead of leaving out a" secret" ingredient I added 2 extras that changed the recipe completely. She tried and tried but could never replicate it. Pleased me no end.

Now I have mellowed and would not do that unless,  of course, you were andiesenji's cousin! ;D ;D ;D ;D

That's bad luck for you indeed.  LOL - I had a Methodist aunt who loved my mother's Christmas cake - it had brandy in it, although Mum always said it was orange juice.   I used to add a little bit extra to marinade it after it was cooked  :o :o :o :o ;)
