Green Glacier

2 oz brandy ( I used Remy VSOP)
¾ oz green Chartreuse
¼ oz crème de cacao (use white, not dark)
2 dashes Angostura bitters
Stir and strain into chilled coupe.

This is a nice end of the evening cocktail. It's kind of manhattany
and a little sweet.

The recipe is from Jamie Boudreau's spiritsandcocktails.com

Egg Nog

Yum! This is by far the best eggnog that I've ever had. Not that I'm an eggnog expert, but I'm planning on being one by the end of the holidays! Anyway, this one is from the Jeffrey Morgenthaler website.

2 large eggs
3 oz (by volume) granulated sugar
½ tsp freshly-grated nutmeg
2 oz brandy
2 oz spiced rum (I use Sailor Jerry’s)
6 oz whole milk
4 oz heavy cream

Beat eggs in blender for one minute on medium speed. Slowly add sugar and blend for one additional minute. With blender still running, add nutmeg, brandy, rum, milk and cream until combined. Chill thoroughly to allow flavors to combine and serve in chilled wine glasses or champagne coupes, grating additional nutmeg on top immediately before serving.

Apple Cocktail

1 oz apple cider
1/2 oz gin
1/2 oz Brandy
1 oz Calvados
Shake with ice.
Strain into cocktail glass.

This tastes surprisingly like the hard apple cider I made a couple of
years ago. Very light and refreshing.

Fallen Leaves

1/4 oz dry vermouth
3/4 oz sweet vermouth
3/4 oz calvados
2 dashes brandy
Stir and strain with twist of lemon!
This was my first calvados drink. I like it a lot more than the
applejack I've had in the past. It actually tastes like apple!

Dementia Pugilistica

OK. Get ready. I made a sample batch last night with lime instead of
the blood oranges and it was totally good. I might stick with it. I
think it kept the sweetness of the St. Germaine at bay.

⅔ bottle Remy Martin VS cognac ( or other good brandy)
¼ bottle maraschino liqueur
¼ bottle St. Germain elderflower liqueur
3 bottles Duval-Leroy Rose Champagne (or other good dry Champagne)
10 dashes Angostura bitters
15 dashes peach bitters (if available)
2 blood oranges, sliced
Take a large metal bowl and fill with water.
Place bowl in freezer until frozen.
Lay bowl in a sink of hot water until ice can slide out.
Place huge ice dome into a punch bowl.
Pour all other ingredients into punch bowl.
Stir and serve.

Brandy Alexander

1 oz Brandy
1 oz Dark Creme de Cacao
2 oz Heavy Cream
Nutmeg

Shake and strain into cocktail glass, garnish with nutmeg. Great for dessert!

Panela Punch

My first made up Punch. (1 part sour, 2 parts sweet, 3 parts strong, 4 parts weak)
I used some lemons I found piled up in front of a neighbors house under their lemon tree.
1/2 oz lemon juice
1 oz of dark smokey demerara syrup made from Salvadoreno Dulce de Panela
1 oz rye
1/2 oz brandy
2 oz Bundaberg Ginger Beer
All poured over ice with a horses neck style lemon peel garnish
