Party Drinks - Tips and Ideas

If you find yourself hosting a Christmas party then punch is an ideal way to get the party going with a swing! Just before last Christmas I shared a couple of Punch recipes with you (See Punch Drunk Op) to which I am adding a recipe suitable for Diabetics. This next idea is one that was sent to me by a penfriend in America and looks so effective. It no only Brightens up your punch bowl but will keep the beverage cold at the same time. To prepare, Select a ring mould that fits into the punch bowl. Fill the mould half full with water and freeze until firm (about 4 hours). Cut 3 Florida Orange Wheels or Slices in half ...  Read the complete review

One of the troubles with Christmas is that we often end up walking round in an alcohol sozzled haze. This makes us feel lousy the next morning and of course it is dangerous if we want to drive. (Booze is often still in the system the morning after). Therefore my Christmas tip is a very simple one and enables you not to get so dehydrated and headachey that you go round all over Chrimbo snapping at everyone; For every single measure of alcohol you consume, drink a full soft drink or glass of water. If you alternate the two you won't end up drinking as much as you would have without the glasses in between. This works for spirits or beer, however, ...  Read the complete review

I get about 6 ice trays and fill them with water and place a maraschino cherry in the middle of each.It's kind of a surprise when they're ice melts in they're drinks they get a cherry for desert.But what makes it even better is buy a bottle of pure grain alcohol and soak your cherries overnight.Then place in ice trays, it makes powerful littles cherry bombs.

As a seasoned and hardened drinker I hate Christmas - why? Well it's simple - you just can't get served. For "Party Spirit" read "Dozy phoney idiots who clog up the bar with the round written on the back of a beer mat". They are drunk after three pints, are usually sick all over the place, and they think everyone is their mate. They ask you where the toilets are, so you point them to the ladies (if they're male and they usually are) and they go straight in! They are also the first to complain about queues and not being able to get served. They always put Slade on the jukebox and know all the words to it. I think I have discovered ...  Read the complete review

Christamas is tops for Parties and they don't come much better than my works do. We were not going to have one this year but in the end we all decided due to the complete success of the last three we had to do it again. The reason I like them so much is because everybody no matter who they are changes into a fun person for the night. It doesn't matter if you are the boss, secretary of just the office junior, you are all on a par for the night and what a night it is. Most people make a complete fool of themselves and it is totally acceptable. You always say things to the boss that in the morning makes you cringe in embarrasment. Who cares though, it's all part ...  Read the complete review
