The first book I read had a long list of candies in it, but I've done one of those lately. This list of candies was only interesting because it mentions candies with cordial in them, and how this girl should give them up because of her family tendency to alcoholism. Has anyone, anywhere, anytime, ever gotten drunk on the liquor in chocolate? I have no idea, but it seems so unlikely.
So by default, I'm stuck with the one midnight spree in Frank Merriwell at Yale (1903). Frank and some friends steal a turkey (though because Frank Is Good, he leaves $5 to pay for it). Somehow, they roast it within two hours, and have a very late night feast of turkey and beer (except for Frank; Frank doesn't drink alcohol, because - yes - Frank Is Good). Here's the mouth-watering description of the turkey: “The turkey was white and tender, and it was certainly very well cooked. It had a most delicious flavor.”
