anything thats going  drink that is!!

Ohhhh great thread ...

For me its balieys and .... *drumroll* the king of all Christmas drinks...DRAMBUIE

 What is Drambuie, Gypsie - is it a liqeur? Anyway it sounds good 

Before I went on Atkins, a hot port with lemon / cloves / sugar was my fave... I'm not allowed it now so thats why I'm switching to mulled wine   

Baileys with a tot of brandy to liven it up & ice.     mmmm 

But saying as I've got no money it will be lager again 

baileys and advocaat (its not christmas without a snowball )

and wine /lager/beer/etc   hic

i have fond memories of a snowball - i was allowed a small one as a treat at christmas parties (when i was younger!)

I was allowed a babycham (sp) 

Baileys for me, but only a couple here and there they get too gacky after that

considering how young i was social services would be called in nowadays

my tipples are Vodka Brandy Sheridans and Baileys 

vodka preferred in a tall glass with fresh orange juice and ice 

brandy - in my coffee - or a drop or two on its own 

Sheridans and Baileys on their own or with a dash of Brandy 

a combination of beer, wine, vodka, baileys, sambucca, whiskey anything over 10% usually....

I love a sherry at Christmas and also whiskey and coke 

my mother hardly ever drank but at Christmas she loved a small glass or two of Harvey's Bristol Cream Sherry 

I like port too.  

 I reckon so, Machel.

Mind you a snowball has different recipes... sometimes its just advocaat and lemonade, which is pretty mild.

My mum likes a sherry at christmas as well  she's been nagging my ear off all week cause she can't find any Enva Cream in the shops 

Yep  our house was pretty much teetotal too, but the Sherry got opened at Christmas when my Mam had the neighbours round.

In the past Drambuie and Glenfiddich Liqueur (discontinued but still out there )

This year - Ginger Beer  

Stick Glayva on the list and Aldi's version of Malibu.

So tempting as I type this...

When I was young and living at home my mother would have a Babycham,I loved the Babycham advert, you knew it was Christmas  when it came on .My Gran had advocaat with Lemonade ,it was called a snowball. The men would drink forrest Vodka .

Blimey! There's a name from the past! I used to love that 

Awww Donks, I'm guessing you're giving up and if you are, will you not regret it?  

Ohhh Its lovely, Its a sticky sweet syrupy warm subtly  spiced whiskey liqueur , best served over ice and sipped.

Stopped a few months ago sprouty - was getting moreish and a bit out of hand.

Bit of a dypso  

You can buy it here.

YAY! go you 

I really love Ginger wine.

I remember drinking apricot wine when I was growing up and I have noticed that they are selling it again so I may be buying  that this year.

I always tell my OH not to bring me back wine if its less than 12% and he calls me an alco??  I just think no point in drinking anything less if it does nothing for me.

As for xmas drinks.....I usually drink Peach Schnapps and white lemonade on xmas evening but I'll probably just stick to vodka mixed with red wkds.

Baby Guinness..consists of Tia Maria with Bailys on top....

I only drink Ouzo when I'm drunk and shots seem like a great idea.

Yummy.... I want one of them... or 3 !!!

They're like pringles PG..once you pop you can't stop....

A nice glass of Port after Christmas dinner. And then maybe another one

Lordy Stonks - they sound sickly

Oooo, I think they sound nice Eileen but not too many 

I suppose its cos I don't like Baileys
