What’s December without some cocktails. Here are some ideas to help keep everybody “happy”.
Silver Fizz
Who doesn’t want a gin milkshake on Christmas morning? This Silver Fizz recipe was passed down from husband’s grandfather. It’s not the traditional way of going about a fizz. You could use real lemons, and sugar. But concentrate and 7 up and ice cream are way more fun.
Gin 1 ½ oz. per person Frozen lemonade 1/3 of large can Vanilla ice cream 4-6 scoops 7 Up
Put all ingredients in blender except 7 Up. Fill with ice, add 7 Up to an inch from top. Blend
But we don’t use very much if any ice at all, and may use more Gin.
My favorite, the Manhattan, this recipe is for a crowd.
A wintertime Negroni is called a Boulevardier! It has bourbon instead of gin.
Espresso Martini. Easy does it. Two things to over do with this one.
