Linguistics / vernacular | | Dutch term or phrase: pikketanissie | Leer Mokums (=Bargoens).
Onder het genot van een “pikketanissie” kunt u al het geleerde op elkaar oefenen en geloof ons, dat valt niet mee!
Ik veronderstel dat het een drank moet zijn zoals bv Oude Klare? |

Kortom, om wat specifieker op je vraag in te gaan: een borrel of neut in het algemeen (dus niet een specifieke drank).

Explanation:
Jenever is often referred to as Dutch gin (cf Google).
For the Dutch meaning of the word, see for example:
http://www.cafenolamsterdam.nl/Site/Jenever/tabid/68/Default...
Jenever
Meest gangbaar voor jenever is de term 'borrel', maar daarnaast zijn ook benamingen als 'hassebassie', 'keiltje', 'neutje', 'pikketanussie', 'recht op en neer' en 'slokkie' in gebruik.
http://www.dagtripdoen.nl/musea/jenevermuseum-schiedam.html
Borrel, neut, pikketanussie of een jonge met ijs. Jenever heeft vele namen en liefhebbers.

Do you know what a pikketanussie is? You probably do; it is a Dutch gin.

Jenever — Dutch gin — is a potentially lethal concoction made from molasses ... recht op en neer (straight up), pikketanussie
