This could be very wrong... Revels?!

The thought had occurred to me, but I can only find the usual definition for revels and nothing to do with drinks specifically

“Juleps” would fit the definition, but the second letter would need to change.

Chambers…
julep /jooˈləp/
noun
1. A sweet drink, often medicated
2. An American drink of spirits, sugar, ice and mint (also mint julep)

That sounds promising, Jono. I'd be quite happy if the first E was changed, but we'll need to see what gave that.

Yep it’s JULEPS, my E was wrong due to a homophone malfunction ;)
Thanks all
