This cockail was created by a newspaper photographer, Phil Coburn who works for the London-based Sunday Mirror. One night in 2003, Phil and some colleagues were stationed in Amman, Jordan, while trying to get into Iraq to cover the war. To alleviate the boredom, Phil invented a dreadful cocktail which he named a Ladyboy. Phil convinced the barman at The Intercontinental, Amman, that it was a real cocktail and he and his colleagues have had fun talking about it ever since.

In the 2nd week of Jan 2010 in Afghanistan, Phil and his reporter, Rupert Hamer, were blown up with some selfless US servicemen and a brave Afghan in a roadside bomb. Rupert was killed, as were two of the US servicemen and the Afghani. Phil has lost both legs below the knee but, thank God, he survived. He is in good spirits, feels lucky to be alive and is going to be a father soon. Cheers to Ladyboy!
