Glass of meat wine, anyone? That's right, the Victorians loved a glass of meaty wine.
They loved drinking so much that it became a moral panic, with whole movements of temperance cropping up around Britain.
What was drinking culture really like in the Victorian and Edwardian Britain? Were women able to drink as much as men? And what exactly went into that meat wine?
Helping Kate get to the bottom of this is Thora Hands, author of Drinking in Victorian and Edwardian Britain: Beyond the Spectre of the Drunkard.
This episode was edited and produced by Stuart Beckwith. The senior producer was Charlotte Long.
