WHITE LIGHTNING (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

White Lightning is a brand of cheap white cider (or more accurately fermented corn syrup) brewed by Scottish Courage in the UK. Although originally available in a 3 litre bottle (advertised as 3 litres for the price of 2 litres), in 2004 Scottish Courage announced that bottles of White Lightning would be produced at a maximum of 2 litres in order to restore value to the "cider" drinks market and to pursue the perhaps difficult goal of promoting responsible drinking amongst consumers of such products. The UK Department of Health recommends that males drink no more than 3–4 units of alcohol a day and women drink no more than 2–3. At 7.5% alcohol by volume, the 3 litre bottle contained 22.5 units of alcohol.
