A
drink, or rather a series of drinks had one after the other in
rapid succession. A wine-spodiodi consists of a
shot of
port wine, a shot of
whisky, and another shot of
port wine.
The wine-spodiodi is mentioned in by Jack Kerouac's On the Road:
Dean and I had ended up with a colored guy named Walter who ordered drinks at the bar and had them lined up and said, "Wine-spodiodi!" which was a shot of port wine, a shot of whisky, and a shot of port wine. "Nice sweet jacket for all that bad whisky!" he yelled.
