"I just served this at our NYE 2007 party.. I can't even lie and say it was a success for all - only the women drank this.. but the punch bowl was pretty much licked dry :) I found this recipe on a bartending website...Enjoy! Serves "12"...
For ice: Use a bundt pan and add mint leaves and fresh cranberries - fill with 1/4 cup water.
Freeze once frozen add more cranberries and mint fill pan with water and use for pretty ice set-up in your bowl (not necessary - just presentation)."

Hi all..I am back in Maryland!!! Recently had twin boys, they are a month old! I am married to my best friend, whom is the taster of all my Recipezaar creations. I was born in Chile but raised in the states.. Maryland to be exact. I find myself cooking more now than ever... before I used to "entertain" now I have to feed.. lol! I took a short break while pregnant, as all I wanted was crepes, pancakes and PBJ sammies. Cooking fell way last on my list of things to do while awake. Now I am on maternity leave and have to make quick and easy meals.
I am a huge fan of short cuts and "easy" recipes BUT healthy eating is a must. I love watching the food network and absolutely adore Rachel Ray. I think Emeril is amazing, but I just can't cook his recipes.. too many ingredients :)
At best I cook fusion meals, I love Mexican and wish I could make Chilean meals like Grandma... but instead I cook United Nations style.. with TONS of short cuts!! I admit I am a cheater.. I wish I could stay in the kitchen and slave over meals.. but instead I model after the 30 minutes or less Chef...
