Just wondering what you guys will be drinking during the holiday?

Looking to try something myself but I don't know what.

:(

I just drink wine and beer all year round, not a mixed drink or spirits guy. I've been buying some random 'Winter' Ales & Lagers, all just various local micro-brews. Haven't found anything really awesome yet though.

Darker beers, glühwein, whisky and ofcourse some yummy cocktails like White Sands.

I completely forgot about mulled wine (glühwein).

I tried a German ale at the Winter Wonderland theme park in London last week and it was really tasty. Wish I remembered the name.

Good question. Overall answer to "Christmas Alcohol?" is "YES".

Specifics...I consider the season officially on - last weekend I had 4 glasses of red wine from Cyprus...the country not the vineyard in CA. It was reportedly from a wine that was made over 10 years ago, aged 10 years before that, from a process dating back thousands of years and was majorly expensive. We had good cause to celebrate - a good buddy's girlfriend's (finally) cancer-free diagnosis. We celebrated life until early Monday morning and my Mrs. drove home (I think!) :)

Won't be able to top that, but I think more wine is in the offing...

I personally think its terrible
Eggnog, or egg nog, is a sweetened dairy-based beverage traditionally made with milk and/or cream, sugar, and whipped eggs.

I stick with beer

I agree. Every year I try eggnog again thinking I might like it but it's just nasty curdled shit. Can't stand it. Beer for me too.

I surprisingly like eggnog...just plain or spiked up. It was really good spiked up with Finnish salmiakkikoskenkorva.

I like it drinking alone without booze....you gotta be a bit of man to drink a whole 26'er of alcohol mixed with that shit :lol:

The taste of Salmiakki Koskenkorva resembles strongly that of black licorice and cough medicine

Pffft...it is good! But then again, it is a man's drink so I wouldn't expect you to be able to take a shot of it. :nana:

Perkele! It takes a different kind of a nutter indeed to survive here. :lol:

The usual bacardi and coke, although we will have some cheap fizzy wine pretending to be champagne Christmas Day, cos we're dead classy like that ;) :lol:

I did try a Cuba Libre on the works night out Friday, which basically translates to a posh bacardi and coke :lol: difference being Bacardi Gold and limes in the glass
