interesting festive concoctions

[snorkel sucker]

Does anybody have any interesting festive alcoholic (or non) "concoctions" that they have created this, or any other year?

Sounds awful, but actually tasted ok, but half a shot glass of warm brandy sauce topped up with some port has just gone down rather well...

I mixed Guinness, White and red wine, tawny and ruby port, vodka, sloe gin and Morgan spiced rum.
In fairness though, I mixed it in my stomach, but I appear to have got the proportions just right- I was thoroughly plastered(sufficiently to break my nose) and felt like ste on boxing day morning

Emsman, i thought you were onto something then after i started reading...

wouldnt imagine it complimented the turkey though...

If it's not a very good port, drop some in a Guinness, or indeed go for Guinness and champers, both will normally fell a bull elephant after 7 or 8 pints.
Failing that, Vodka, port and alcoholic Ginger beer actually 'works' well!

Morgans spiced rum and fresh orange juice tastes strangely like orange smarties.

When you think you can't drink anymore, mix gin with half a glass of ice, top up with cranberry juice and twist a lime around the edge. Very light, fresh and almost juice like.

Obviously the cranberrys are the festive bit, and the orange juice is pinched from the festive bucks fizz or something.

Guiness and a glug of Tia Maria is a chocolate milk shake that sneaks up behind you and boots you up the harris after a few.

The key is lots of ice, so that it's very cold. Yum
