Easy To Fix Mixed Drink Recipes To Use For The Holiday Parties
It\’s the time of year to make everything sweeter including drinks. Here is some fun and easy to make mixed drink recipes that you can enjoy with friends and loved ones throughout the season. All of them can also be made non alcoholic if you choose.
The Dirty Snowball: An easy drink to make with 3 parts cream, 2 parts Irish Liqueur and 1 part peppermint schnapps. Pour ice into an old fashioned glass and then pour in the ingredients. Add the creme last on top of the rest. You can add a fun swizzle stick or candy cane for an added touch. Sometimes you can find straws that look like candy canes which are very festive.
Candy Cane Lane: It\’s not a game but a cool blended drink! You will need one ounce creme de cocoa, the same of peppermint schnapps and half n\’ half. Add half a cup of vanilla ice cream and quarter cup of ice and blend away. Take a tall glass or a parfait glass and add grenadine for the candy cane look and pour in the blended mixture. Add whipped cream to the top and a candy cane to make it delicious.
The Cool Yule Martini: Use 3 ounces of vodka, half ounce dry vermouth and 1 ounce peppermint white liqueur (or schnapps). Mix ingredients together in a shaker and then pour into a cold martini glass. Add a garnish of candy cane crumbles. No olives needed for this martini!
Tom and Jerry: This is not the cartoon but a festive holiday drink people have enjoyed for generations. The batter can be made ahead of time. The batter is made by taking six eggs and separating them. In a small bowl beat egg yolks until they are thick. In a separate bowl take the whites and beat them until stiff. Stir in half a cup of sugar a little at a time. Mix beaten egg yolks into the egg white mixture. Add one and three quarters cups of sugar, salt to taste (not much) and one teaspoon of pure vanilla extract. Then slowly stir in one cup of powdered milk.
When you use the mix you add one to two tablespoons to a mug and fill to three quarters full with hot water. Add rum to taste of any type you like. Usually one ounce will do, and top it off with nutmeg as a tasty garnish. It\’s a great drink on a cold day.
Any of these drinks can be made without alcohol for the younger guest or the designated driver. As with any party drink responsibly so you can remember the good times and not suffer the hangover. Enjoy the holidays with these simple drink recipes and your guests will have a great time.
