Leave out the condensed milk and I might love this!

I came here thinking Classic had competition in the Guinness department. I was wrong. I daresay this seems like a doable punch and something that would actually stay down unlike several of the @classic33 smoothies.

Now I don't have the Guinness , just a New Zealand black ale, I do have almond milk and I have a soya condensed milk or even a coconut condensed milk which I could make this with... hummmm I am beginning to have an idea!

Oh and is that 12 oz or 12 fl oz? It seems odd to weigh a liquid in ounces and how on earth did we end up with oz as the abbreviation for ounces?

'oz' was borrowed from Medieval Italian, where the word was onza.

If using water 1 oz = 1 fl.oz. Guinness is probably a bit heavier than water (or is it) but I'm sure the recipe means fl.oz. as that TBH it won't make a big difference.

It's down to how the bottle has to be marked.

In some places it the weight of the displaced water. In others, it's the measure of the contents, within the bottle.
