Samuel L. Jackson has talked about how he still struggles to watch other people drinking even after 15 years without a drink.

The reformed drink and drug addict revealed how he has not drunk a drop in 15 years, but still keeps drinks in the house for when friends and family come to call.

He admitted he still sometimes cringes when he sees other people not drinking correctly: "My mum and sister come over but they put orange juice in the Cristal. I'm like, 'What are you doing? We've got other bottles of cheaper champagne for bucks fizz!'"

Even though it grates he does still stick to the orange juice himself. He told Zoo magazine just how tough it is: "I can't say to myself, 'I haven't had a drink in 15 years, I could have a glass of champagne and be OK'. That might be true, but history says when I opened that bottle of champagne, I sat there and drank it until it was gone.

"People who've been through what I went through are always going to be tempted. I enjoyed drinking and I enjoyed taking drugs. But I have to remind myself every day that I can't have a drink."
