A Mickey Finn

Meaning
A sedative (or sometimes in the US a purgative) drug surreptitiously slipped into someone's drink.
Origin
A 'Mickey Finn', which is sometimes called just a 'Mickey' is supposed to be named after a character from 19th century Chicago - 'Mickey Finn', of course. Finn was the keeper of Chicago's Lone Star Saloon in the late 19th and early 20th century. He was alleged to have drugged and robbed his customers. There are a couple of US newspaper references from December 1903 that allude to this
