Morphology

disco + biscuit

Although 'disco' suggests a club/rave context, the noun 'biscuit' (a cookie) does not transparently signal a drug meaning; the combined form is an informal slang term whose reference to MDMA is idiomatic and culturally specific. A B1 learner who knows the constituent words would be unlikely to deduce 'ecstasy' from them without prior exposure, so the expression is unpredictable and opaque.

Etymology

Disco biscuit may come from club life: disco means dance parties and biscuit suggests a small cookie. Imagining a tiny 'cookie' you take to dance helps explain why the phrase means 'MDMA'.
