It's always a great crowd at Millbrae's famous New Year's Day Cocktail Party and don't be fooled, there aren't any cocktails! Traditionally, weary sleep deprived revellers would arrive after first footing through the night and order a lager & lime or lager shandy to soften the blow! This became known as a Millbrae Cocktail or more accurately a ruined pint!
