Since Christmas is only 11 days away I thought you might want some
that take less than six months to prepare.

Here are 11 recipes (one for each day) for Christmas spirits.

CHRISTMAS CHEER

1/2 shot Egg Nog
1/2 shot Peppermint Schnapps

stir it up and shoot it down. HO! HO! HO! Tastes like Christmas with a
pine tree twist.

CHRISTMAS DAY REFRESHER

4 tbsp Lime Juice
4 cups Orange Juice
1 cup Passion fruit
1 cup Tequila

Mix together all ingredients. Can substitute Pomegranate juice for
Passion fruit juice. Yes, we do drink this on Christmas morning (at
least before we had children)!

CHRISTMAS DRINK

8 oz. Beer
8 oz. Club Soda
8 oz. Vodka
8 oz. Port

Mix all together and drink in cocktail glass. Serves 4.

CHRISTMAS MARTINI

3 oz. Vodka
0.5 oz. Peppermint Schnapps
0.5 oz. Dry Vermouth

Garnish with small sugar mint

CHRISTMAS PUDDING

100 ml Southern Comfort®
100 ml Drambuie®
500 ml Guinness® Stout

In a 6 2/3 Paris Goblet add Southern Comfort and then Drambuie. Top up
with Draught Guinness

CHRISTMAS RUM PUNCH

1 oz Rum
1 oz Cherry juice
1/2 Cranberry Juice Cocktail
1/2 Pineapple Juice

CHRISTMAS SHOTS

1.5 oz. Melon liqueur
1.5 oz. Chambord Rasberry Liqueur

This is a layered shot, for best effect use a tall thin liquor glass.
Pour half shot Chambord first, then slowly pour half shot Midori over
the back of a spoon into glass. If done correctly, you should have a
layered red and green shot perfect for celebration, if not-a muddy
brown mess.

CHRISTMAS TREE

1/3 oz. Creme de Menthe
1/3 oz. Grenadine
1/3 oz. Bailey's Irish Cream®

layer in shot glass use spoon to pour in liquor do not mix

CHRISTMAS TREE NO 2

0.5 oz. Green Creme De Menthe
0.5 oz. Vodka
0.5 oz. Cherry Brandy

CHRISTMAS TREE WATER

1 Part Gin
3 Parts Sprite

Place one part dry gin in Cocktail Glass. Do NOT bruise the Gin!
Carefully add two parts Sprite. Do NOT bruise the Sprite. Optionally,
add a dash of cayenne pepper for added flavor. Add 3 tablespoons of
dry ice for that mystical, yet strangely, psycho effect.

CHRISTMAS YULE EGGNOG

12 oz. Whiskey
