The backhander

It's a way to pour a mixer with a little more punch. Pour your normal alcoholic spirit into a glass, fill it with a soda of your choice and before serving gently pour another shot of spirit in a circular motion on top.
Oldmate takes a sip of a drink he's just been served "geez mate this has a bit of a kick to it!"

Server replies " you wanted something with a bit of a sting mate so the backhander you got"

didn’t know if anyone knew what it meant.
Mickey cohen and his body guard Frank niccoli went into the E.l. Adobe Cafe and gave Jimmy utley some Sicilian Backhanders.

Irish Backhander

When your vet who claims he's Irish backhands you mid-consult.
I won't be going to that vet again, he told me he was Irish and then gave me an Irish Backhander!
