Winter drinks

We had a little bit about wine the other day, so to continue the alcohol-related theme in a seasonal stylee, I thought we could discuss favourite winter drinks.

I have noticed that whilst many drinks are good at any time of the year, certain tipples come into their own in the cooler months.

So, to start you off, here is my absolute favourite, great any time, but just smashing on a nice cosy winter evening:


White Russian - Recruiting Officer Long Mix

Vodka to taste
Kahlua (coffee liqueur) to taste (suggest equal to vodka)
Lots of milk (of your preference, to taste)
Ice


If you want to sip one just do equal shots of vodka, Kahlua and cream (or milk again if you prefer).

Oh and I really would recommend Kahlua - Tia Maria is a poor substitute in my opinion. Or why not try making your own?


So, any suggestions for luvverley cold-weather beverages? I have a drinks cupboard and I'm not afraid to use it! Recipes without alcohol also warmly welcomed...
