The Tim Tam Slam is the practice of drinking a hot beverage through a Tim Tam. Opposite ends of the Tim Tam are bitten off, one end is submerged in the drink, and the drink sucked through the biscuit. The crisp inside biscuit is softened and the outer chocolate coating begins to melt. Ideally, the inside of the biscuit should collapse but the outside should remain intact long enough for the liquid to reach the mouth. When the biscuit collapses it is [sucked] into the mouth. (from Wikipedia)
I was first introduced to this glorious activity last year by my friend Jake. He served his mission and Canada and apparently it is a common thing up there. Last night he came over with some real Canadian Tim Tams (not the American rip offs) and hot coco and we did it again. I was able to do it the first time but the second time my cookie broke :( It’s not easy at all. The cookie starts melting and before you know it there’s nothing you can do except watch it sink in the hot coco.
