Shake 3 measures vodka,
1/2 a measure dry vermouth
and 1 tsp peppermint schnapps
over ice until well frosted.

Strain into a chilled cocktail glass.

Dress with a peppermint candy cane.

This is a perfect pick me up for those cold winter months.

Serves 8:
8 egg yolks
7oz/200g sugar
1 3/4 pints / 1 litre of milk
8oz/225g dark chocolate, grated
150ml dark rum

* Beat the egg yolks with the sugar until thickened.
* Pour the milk into a large pan, add the grated chocolate and bring just to the boil.
* Remove from the heat and gradually beat in the egg yolk mixture.
* Stir in the rum and pour into heatproof glasses.

The Pefect Slippery Nipple:

one measure of sambuca
one measure of baileys

Pour the sambuca into a shot glass, then carefully and slowly pour the baileys on top. They shouldn’t mix, if they do then it looks more like a brain haemorrhage than anything else. There’s a knack to this…or you could try to use a spoon.
(or get special shot glasses that are divided into two sections)

This shot tastes divine….try it and see what you think!
The baileys takes the edge off the sambuca.

Stunningly pretty cocktail….its very very blue.

serves 2
2/3 measures blue curacao
2/3 measure gin
1 measure lillet
crushed ice
lime slices

Place the three liquids in a cocktail shaker with ice.

Shake until frosted, then pour into shallow cocktail glasses and finish with a slice of lime.

ENJOY!
