Cheers!

Well, I'm a little late with this post with all the hustle bustle of the holidays, but it was a great holiday, and we'll drink to that!  This year instead of making dinner, we gals decided to order in, as we made holiday booze-goodies!  A great gift for those who like their alcoholic beverages, and also, great to keep around the house for yourself as well. 

 

Yummy Gummies

Gummy Bears

Vanilla Vodka (or your preferred flavor)

 

Directions:  Soak Gummy Bears in vanilla vodka.  :) 

 I found them to be perfect at about 3 days soaked.

 

 

Apple Pie Liquor

1 gallon Apple Cider

1/2 gallon Apple Juice

1 Cup Sugar

1 Liter Everclear

5-6 Cinnamon Sticks

 

 

Directions:  Bring first 4 ingredients (NOT EVERCLEAR) to a boil.  Then let cool and add the Everclear.  (be very careful:  extremely flammable)  Makes about 2.5 gallons.

 

 

Whiskey Cherries

Maraschino Cherries

Whiskey of choice

 

Directions:  Drain juice from cherries.  Add whiskey in the jar-ro (that was for any Metallica fans).  Let soak several days.  Eat alone, add to cakes, or put in your drink! 

 

Irish Creme

I cup heavy whipping cream OR half and half (we used half and half)

1 can sweetened condensed milk

1 2/3 cup Jameson Irish Whiskey

2 tablespoons chocolate syrup

1 teaspoon instant coffee granules

1 teaspoon vanilla.

 

Directions:  Stir 'em all together!  Makes about 1.5 gallons.

 

Cheers!  And Happy Holidays!
