Day 348
While planning this years Christmas baking, Christmas Eve dinner, Christmas Day menu, we also are considering the beverages we would serve our guests, (if we could have guests) or just to sip while relaxing and enjoying the Christmas music and the Christmas Lights.
I think Eggnog is on the top of the list of traditional beverages to the Wassil Bowl which is a warm holiday punch filled with aromatic spices, Hot Buttered Rum, Hot Toddy, Mulled Wine!
There are so many ways to celebrate Christmas with friends and family (pre- covid), you can choose brandy, rum, wine, beer, sherry. You can can raise your glass to your family and friends with your favorite drink, what ever it may be.
For the past few years it has been my tradition to make and share My Mamma Julie's Homemade Bailey's/creme coffee liquor.

The great thing about making/baking in the kitchen, is that it is so much fun creating something tasty and delicious with a dear friend. The laughter, the taste testing, the sampling! Oh and believe me, so far, this is the best batch! It will taste so good, alone over ice, or added to coffee!!
Cheers, Proust to my family and friends!
Jewels PS, Thank you Betty!! I had so much fun today!!
On the 11th day before Christmas, my true love gave to me....

A tiny sled for my Christmas Village... to remind me of those childhood memories I hold in my heart.

ReplyDeleteBaileys was invented in London in 1973 by a team of professionals hired for the job. It's traditional to serve liqueur after dinner, but you can drink Baileys at any time. It almost feels like Baileys was made for coffee or hot chocolate. It will satisfy a sweet craving, but will also rack up the calorie count. In 2007, December, Diageo announced the sale of the one billionth bottle. The families version is a sweet and delicious as any found on the shelve with ingredients I can pronounce. Cheers.
