Default Best / Favorite Christmas Drink

Getting close to that time of year when most of us have at least one festive favorite drink. Brought some spiced rum back from the Caribbean recently that goes pretty good with eggnog, so that'll be the big seller this year. You?

Rum and eggnog or a Granville Island Winter Ale would be my top two for the holiday's.

I don't drink alcohol. But my go to Christmas beverage is white hot chocolate. Sometimes I'll throw a piece of candy cane in there.

Irish cream, and coffee, for the morning.
Egg nog and spiced rum during the day.
Dry white wine with the gobbler.
A tot of brandy, or a hot buttered rum after dinner.

100% agree! Maybe a dram of scotch or two, or three.

I'm also a non drinker but a nice peppermint hot chocolate with a shot (or two) of espresso is a nice treat over the holidays

Whiskey. Any whiskey as long as it isn't cheap swill will do.

At first I read this as 'Tang & Tonic',thinking perhaps it might have been a carry-over from your stint as the crew chef on the last few Apollo missions

BEER!


Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum, and Alberta Premium whiskey, both on the rocks

a good quality red wine - about the only time of year I drink it

Bailey's Irish Cream and milk

I used to like rum and eggnog, but for some reason I didn't like eggnog any more for the last couple of years.
