Christmas Drinks

[EmotionallyUnstable]

Christmas Eve my wife is mixing up her White Christmas margaritas. 
 

For Christmas Day, I have bought a variety of seasonal beers as we will be hosting this year…two I am especially looking forward to are:

 

Big Ditch Kringle Juice IPA 7.0% ABV

 

Allagash Ski House White Winter Ale 7.5% ABV

What’ll ya have?

Those Kringle Juice IPA's are damn good.

 

My parents host Christmas Day and my Mom always makes a traditional Chistmas punch with no alcohol in it but I always add a Nip of Vodka to mine to add some Holiday cheer

"Where's your holiday spirit?"

"I keep it in the basement, stuck up in the main floor joists."

if anyone brings up some type of non-alcoholic punch, i'm going to lose my *****.

I'd get a glass of Vodka and add a nip of punch.

My kids (son and daughter) each make their home made egg nog.  I buy a couple of quarts of Stewart’s egg nog to cut it with.  Their home made stuff can mess you up 🥳.

Homemade stuff is always the best!

My wife and I were shopping in East Aurora, and a store had this punch out for anyone who wanted it. Cherry Coke, Whipped Vodka, Prosecco. We had that for our family Christmas party, and it was a hit.

That was meant for everyone shopping.  I hope you took the punch bowl back. 🤨

Visiting a friend away at college, some W.V. ridge runner pal of his brought it out after already being quite drunk. Didn’t think I was going to be able to keep it down, but did….yeah, I was lucky I wasn’t alone.

Some good peaty scotch

A White Russian. 

 

I was with my Canadian tennis buddy the night I met my wife. I worked with her cousin and he was going with her to Evonne Goolagong’s night club upstairs. Free taco night. We were all poor.  I was post-tennis and smelly heading downstairs for pizza and beer. 

 

It was December and she invited me to her office Christmas party. I was eager to do some things with her to get to know her a bit before that, so we had a few opening dates. One including ending the evening visiting my Canadian friend, who we visited at his condo Christmas Eve. We will call him “Jeff” for the purpose of this story. 

 

Jeff offered us a White Russian. He was not on his first. He settled back into the sofa and slid away into that darkness I’ve seen that before. What I had NOT seen before was the slow flow of lava-like White Russian that gently cascaded down the front of him while………

 

Never mind! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Oh, my, those White Christmas margaritas sound good - but where do you get the White Cranberry Juice?  I have never seen such of a thing!

 

Tonight, we will be drinking egg nog spiked generously with rum.  This is home made eggnog that our upstate farm-dwelling forebears would make, the eggnog Almanzo Wilder carried out to the fields in Farmer Boy, no relation to the oversweetened supermarket product.  

 

Tomorrow we will start the day with mimosas at my moms Assisted Living, then move on to wine and brandy

 

But, those margaritas.....

take off your Underoos and mix yourselves a Negroni.

Homemade coquito   Been making it for ages.  Always a bit different year to year but can really hit hard if you’re not careful.
