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.....

Wegmans, usually. We admittedly didn’t try too hard to find it this year and instead went with the traditional dark red. Funny enough we added a coconut milk that coagulated immediately upon mixing which made it look terrible and then eventually dissolved into a snow-capped mountain look. 
 

Long story short, I have had quite a few. Cheers.

At Christmas I like to take the basic Alaskan Duck Fart (Crown Royal, Kahlua and Bailey's), replace the Bailey's with Candy Cane Rumchata, and call it a Santa's Little Helper.

Jack Daniel's Single Barrel Select... and LOTS of it.

 

Screw all of that sissy stuff!

great thread. One drink we make is a warm mulled wine. We buy the large Costco bottle of basic red wine. Then  you add sugar with cinnamon sticks, orange slices, cloves

 

when it is cooking it makes the house smell so good. delicioso

Mimosas and kind bud.  Merry Christmas Bills Mafia!

LOL Alaskan duck fart. There's got to be a good story connected to that name.  Candy cane rum eh? aka rumplemintz. Now THAT is some potent chit.

 

Remember Stuck?   He called it "Canadian floor stripper"  lol

 

Merry Christmas  🙂

5 hundy and it's yours. 

The hell you say.  I have seen those videos on YouTube that show 'delivery fails'.  Some disgruntled delivery driver likely to drop kick the package up onto my front porch. 🤨

Red wine. I just splurge for the $40 bottle instead of the usual $25 bottle.

Well, I woke up one morning a year or so ago, was 67 at the time. Suddenly realized that not even the O's live to 134 and that I have more yesterdays than tomorrows (both my parents lived well past 100, good lord willing my Aunt turns 100 next month.) At the time I usually spent between $14 and $17 a bottle but decided to up my game or leave more than I want behind.

When in college, (drinking age was 18 then)  a friend's parents would let us have a Christmas party at his house. Go to midnight mass at the church down the street, and then party.The drink I remember was Candy Canes- Just plain shots of peppermint schnaps.
