A video of women adding gin to their pap left social media users amused and confused at the unfamiliar recipe.
Pap is a kind of porridge made from maize meal and can be cooked to be runny, soft or stiff. Any time of the day is a great time to enjoy pap - breakfast, lunch or supper, SA Tourism explains.
Pap gets a gin-infused twist
The TikTok video shared by @khanyisilemnisi1 shows a woman stirring the stiff pap while cooking in a pot on a stove stop as her friend adds a few dashes of Gordons Gin to the pot.

According to the Food Network, whether it's beer, sake, rum or cabernet, using alcoholic beverages in cooking can be a flavour enhancer. It can also be used to tenderise meat in marinades or concentrate flavour when simmered down into sauces. What's even more fun about cooking with alcohol is how versatile it can be.
Perhaps that is what our pap-gin queens were trying to achieve.
