What is yours?

I personally like to drink Snakebites (Equal parts Woodchuck cider and lager mixed) around this time of year.

One year, well over a couple  of decades ago, I made some mulled wine that wasn't too terrible. However, my most favorite is sour mash whiskey, preferably single barrel.

I like cinnamon apple herbal tea with cinnamon schnapps. or orange spice with some triple sec....both with a bit of whipped cream and a dash of cinnamon.

Hot cocoa with Bailey's or creme de cocoa is always wonderful too!

Warmed B&B is heavenly.
Just hand over the chocolate...back away slowly...far away....and you won't get hurt....

Save the Earth... it's the only planet with chocolate.

"My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start. So far I've finished two bags of M&M's and a chocolate cake. I feel better already." – Dave Barry

A balanced diet is chocolate in both hands.

The Sierra Nevada Celebration is always a favorite, but I stumbled across some New Belgium Frambozen that is fabulous.  Raspberry Wheat.  Close in flavor to a lambic, but obviously not brewed the same.  I can only find it in a hole in the wall beer store up in Carrollton.  Gotta get back there!

I also love Woodchuck Cider.  Mix it with Guinness for a sort of Black Velvet.  Gluhwein is a steller choice on a chilly evening too.

I've got some in the fridge as we speak. Seems this years is even hoppier (is that a word?) than last years. Good stuff.

A good California Cab always hits the spot. Say, like Spottswoode, nuth'in fancy.    :-)

I believe it is a word, and it does seem hoppier, but I like that too. 

Hi5 for one of my most favorite movie references!

Are you serious?  That's not a beverage, that's what you make when you're really not sure..."Gee, I feel like getting shitfaced, but I feel like pancakes too..."
