Holiday Things / Holiday Spirits (Drinks)
« on: December 02, 2006, 12:06:56 am »
I was just curious if anyone has special Holiday drinks/recipes that they would like to share.
My sister comes in from Colorado at Christmas time and we have our annual "Holiday Drink". We each find new recipes to share and take home. It's kinda like a cookie swap. I won't usually drink these "specialty" drinks, but will occasionally have a Coffeetini or similar "dessert" type drink after dinner at a restaurant. We enjoy doing this when we get together... it makes "our time" togther that much better.
Here's one of my favorites:
Chocolate Martinis
Chocolate rim
Godiva liqueur
Shaved milk chocolate or semisweet chocolate
8 ounces (1cup) Godiva liquer
4 ounces (1/2 cup) vodka
1/2 cup half-and-half
Dip the edges of 4 martini glasses in liqueur and rim them with chocolate.
In a small saucepan, combine the liqueur, vodka, and half-and-half. Heat over medium to medium-high heat until warm but not hot. Pour into the rimmed martini glasses and serve.
I look forward to seeing other recipes... non-alchol,too please. I'm always looking for wonderful things for the kids.
