Jingle bells, jingle bells...this helps hold my xmas spirit up. -
Very good and very sweet and I guarantee no one can maintain a Grinch attitude after one or two of these. Thanks SoozieQ! -
I loved this! I didn't have any simple syrup on hand so I just added a little powdered sugar to the shaker. I might not have been quite as pretty but it sure tasted good! Thanks Soozie! -
This was so nice! VERY pretty and very festive! Tasted wonderful too! You could not really tell that it was alcohol! The lemon juice added a nice tart flavor and the simple syrup added the perfect sweetness. I will definitely be serving this this Holiday Season. This would make a great signature drink for a holiday party too! Thank you so much SoozieQ for sharing this recipe! Made for Beverage Tag!

I grew up in Tucson but moved to Colorado in 1989 and live in a household with my husband, Dad, daughter and 3-year old twin granddaughters. Our 8-year old grandson spends 2 nights a week with us. All of that adds up to often difficult menu ideas to met everyone's tastes.
Zaar is very addicting and I love trying the recipes I find here. I like to find recipes of people that I see are still active on Zaar and love it when I hear back from the Chef after I review the recipe. Everytime someone reviews one of my recipes, I like to find one of theirs to make and review as quickly as possible. It's a way for me to find great chefs I don't know yet too!
My husband has high blood sugar so we try to watch our carbs, but it is not easy because we love them so much!
I was diagnosed with brain tumors in 2005 and so far have had 5 surgeries that have left my eyelid droopy. I hope to have a surgery that will correct that soon!! There is still one tumor they have not removed but my wonderful doctor James Garrity at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester MN says they will leave it alone until or if it ever causes problems!
