Colonel Thomas Davey, Lieutenant Governor of the colony of Van Diemen's Land (Tasmania) from 1813 to 1817 invented a cocktail called Blow My Skull. It consisted of two pints of boiling water, a pint of rum & ½ a pint of brandy.
David Hunt, in "True Girt," the Unauthorised History Of Australia, Volume two, writes: "Davey would drink anything, as long as it had been brewed, distilled, fermented or drained from the bladder of a hobo sleeping rough outside an unguarded methylated spirits factory."
He also writes: "The twin gods of Inebriation & Irony had smiled on Thomas his entire life, as he was born to a woman named Temperance Wynes."

Little wonder this one is so named! http://www.cocktailsoftheworld.com/cocktails-overview/cocktails-by-country/australia/cocktail/fuck-face.html
I suspect this brew http://www.cocktailsoftheworld.com/cocktails-overview/cocktails-by-country/australia/cocktail/diamantina.html could be the Aussie equivalent of an eggnog.
