Trying to get ahead of the game, I’ve got six people staying with me for a week this holiday season and I would love to make a kind of batch cocktail. I’ve made egg nog in the past and loved it, but I’ve got two avid egg nog haters and one gluten free dietary restriction. Is there anything I can make that is generally well liked but still fun? I like decorating my drinks and making them all fancy. I mostly drink whiskey based cocktails, but I also enjoy every kind of cocktail that doesn’t have gin.
My wife makes coquito every year. It’s coconut milk and enough booze that if you have a safe recipe, keeps forever refrigerated. We hand some jars out as gifts and people who come over the house sample this batch next to last year’s.
