When you are a kid and start drinking tea for the first time you tend to be permitted plenty of sugar without the guilt that grown-ups have. When you get to the end of the cup, assuming mum or dad haven't stirred it properly (often on purpose), there is a surprise stash of undissolved sugar. This syrup is liquid gold and can only truly be consumed by sticking your finger in.

Steve will you please stop reading my mind and delving into the golden corners of my childhood. It'll be sugar butties next...actually no, delve away! :)
When I was visiting New Zealand the coffee shops have 'froth' on the menu for kids which is basically a cup full of the top of a coffee.
They all seem to like it :)
