Here is one:

INGREDIENTS:
1 1/2 oz Ciroc vodka
3/4 oz creme de cassis or creme de mure
1 oz simple syrup
3/4 oz freshly squeezed lemon juice
Champagne
Raspberries or grapes for garnishProcedure:
1. Combine and shake vodka, creme de cassis or creme de mure, simple syrup and lemon juice and strain into an ice-filled highball or rocks glass. Top with champagne or sparkling wine. Garnish with three skewered raspberries or grapes.
2. Alternatively, this recipe could be made with three muddled red grapes (use fine strain if using the grapes), or to make a punch bowl of this recipe simply multiply quantities by however many guests, add ice, then top each serving with champagne.
3. -- Smirnoff
Recipe Type: Beverage

Man, for ME, there isn't anything much better in the winter than a REALLY good Manhattan.I use Dickels RyeFormula Antica Sweet Vermouth (makes any drink with Sweet Vermouth AWESOME)Fee Brothers bittersBadaBing CherriesI follow the IBA recipe and mix the rye and vermouth nearly 2:1. I like to shake them and then pour on the rocks in a rocks glass.Man... getting thirsty just thinking about it!"Tell me what you eat, and I will tell you who you are."

I have recently been enjoying gin out of our cabinet. Can't go wrong with a good old Tom Collins (stay away from that Collins mix crap, use fresh citrus). Or I have also been enjoying gin and tonic with a little campari or a g & t with a healthy dose of rhubarb bittersLarge BGE & mini stepchild & a KJ Jr.The damp PNW

Create a martini and make it your own. This year I made a snowball martini. I did a peppermint too but my favorite is a lemon drop. I also do a chocolate martini for dessert. ;;)Every day is a bonus day and every meal is a banquet in Winter Springs, Fl !

Troglodyte said:Amateur night.I'll probably open a bottle of vintage champagne, maybe start with a cocktail.I'm making some blinis (using the recipe from the Cake Bible), some creme fresh (using buttermilk and heavy creme) and have two 8oz tins of osetra golden pearl caviar.I'm going to sous vide some of these scallops as a main course.My wife who is a very talented pastry chef said that she would make anything I like. Haven't made up my mind. I like to light my NYE desserts on fire, lol. Maybe baba au rum."Tell me what you eat, and I will tell you who you are."

How about a Dark and Stormy. If you can't find Goslings Ginger Beer, any brand will work. In a tall glass filled with ice add 4 - 5 oz of Gosling's Stormy Ginger Beer and top with Gosling's Black Seal Rum. Garnish with a lime wedge.__________________________________________It's not a science, it's an art. And it's flawed.- Camp Hill, PA

+1 on official IBA cocktails.For margaritas,HAVE to use 100% blue agave tequilaPoor mans: El Jimador, Lime, Triple Sec, Fresca or Cuervo Mix (not their tequila)"Cadillac": Good (upper mid shelf) Reposado Tequila, Lime, Grand Marnier, Agave Nectar

I think Margaritas are in order. I've never found a suitable "holiday" type cocktail that isn't overly sweet. I've got the good stuff, 1800, the square bottle, Cointreau, not triple sec, and limes. Shaken, to frozen. A kiss of salt on the rim. Agree 100% blue agave only! not the stuff that says, "made with agave".I like my butt rubbed and my pork pulled.

How about a Negroni?1 or 2 parts gin (depending on how you like it1 part Campari1 part sweet vermouthtwist of orangecan be served up or on the rocks

never been good deciding on one drink i like the scopion idea that was mentioned, then a zombie, then a mia tai, and finish up with fogcutters, then after the ball drops some warmed up apricot brandyfukahwee maineyou can lead a fish to water but you can not make him drink it

For something a little different we make out simple syrup with a habanero. 1 cup sugar, 1 cup water, 1 habanero with a couple of cuts in the side, boil until sugar is dissolved remove pepper, cool. Get ready for a little heat in your margarita!Edina, MN
