Patrick’s Top Christmas Drink Recipes
Christmas is just upon us now. So with that in mind I’ve selected are a few Christmas Bevvy’s that will take no time at all to put together, and will certainly get you in the festive mood.
Kir Royal Sparkling Cocktail
This is a really easy cocktail to put together. Just add some Cream de Cassis into a Champagne flute and top up with a nice chilled Champagne. Cassis is a blackcurrant Liqueur, but if blackcurrant isn’t you thing a strawberry liqueur works very well too.
Whiskey SoursJameson Black Barrel is great for whiskey sours. Add about 40ml of whiskey, 30ml of lemon juice, a spoonful of sugar, about a tablespoon of and a handful of ice all into a shaker. Shake and serve
Bucks FizzThis is a real crowd pleaser and so simple to put together. All Bucks Fizz is, is sparkling wine and orange juice. I like to use Prosecco but any sparkling stuff will do. Fill your glass with your sparkling wine of choice and top up with OJ.
SnowballThis is an old favourite. All you need is a bottle of Advocaat and white lemonade. Mix half and half, add a bit of ice and that’s it.
Chocolate CreamPour out a nice glass of Irish cream. Top up with milk and sprinkle on some chocolate powder and since it is Christmas you could even sprinkle a little cinnamon over the top too.
Enjoy, Sláinte,
Patrick
