Dr. McGillicuddy's (1985). Sweepstakes Advertisement.

I drank 8 shots of this tonight, and I don't feel my headcold anymore. The medicine is still for sale to this day. $0.80 USD per 1.5oz. Hallelujah.

Interestingly enough this was always marketed as Schnapps and was never a medicinal tonic, but since its inception has been branded to look like the aesthetic of a medicinal tonic. Dr. A.P. McGillicuddy was a fictional character to give the brand that druggist medicinal tonic feel.
