Champagne Peach Punch

Submitted by: Barb 
I first made this punch for a wedding 25 years ago. I found a recipe for a peach punch but didn't care for it. This is my adaptation that actually tastes good. This is nice with a ring of ice with fruit or edible flowers frozen into it. Garnish with fruit or mint leaves.

Lithuanian spiced honey liqueur. Serve warm as a traditional Eastern European cold remedy - a quick heat-up in the microwave works great. 

Early American Eggnog

Submitted by: AKBMEIER 
Home Town: Beavercreek, Ohio, USA
This traditional version of classic eggnog is suspected of having roots dating to George Washington's era, but it certainly pulls out all the stops. A creamy blend of egg yolks, egg whites, heavy cream, milk, rum, brandy, and sherry, it requires aging at least 5 to 10 days to achieve its remarkable mellow taste.

Sheila has been looking for a good Sangria recipe for some time. She checked out several recipes, combined the best of everything and came up with the perfect mix that would easily rival her favorite local lounge's sangria! With Cointreau, white rum, coconut rum, and loads of citrus fruits and juices this is a truly unforgettable sangria recipe.

My father believes in a condition called 'the gin meanies.' He invented this cocktail to satisfy his taste for gin, while allowing him to slightly dilute its effects with vodka. His passion for this concoction quickly spread to my friends, who have been known to throw parties solely to celebrate him and his martini.

Dirty Blues Martini

Submitted by: Terry Fay 
My father and uncle (see 'Dan Fay Martini') loved their martini's. Having sampled both of their recipes, more than once, I found myself making variations to their wonderful concoctions. Here is my latest variation in the tradition of the 'Fay Martini.' 

Don's Friend Tonja's Cousin Toni's Boyfriend's Grandmother's Eggnog

Submitted by: Don 
Home Town: Falls Church, Virginia, USA
Living In: Arlington, Virginia, USA
Tonja was born in the 1940's and this is her cousin Toni's boyfriend's grandmother's eggnog, so I'm guessing this is from the mid-1800's and probably dates much earlier. The original recipe called for half milk and half cream, but I use half and half. Delicious and simple, but be warned, Granny apparently liked a kick! I've made it from scratch and with the modern equivalents and it's fantastic either way. Do yourself a favor and use a mixer for everything. Those who like eggnog LOVE this recipe. I never leave a party with leftovers.
