Other than the usual spiked eggnog, mulled cider, and/or wassail bowl punch?
Mine is . . . well, I call it a "What's Under the Kilt?" [lol]
Shot of Barenjager, shot of Scotch, on the rocks. I use JW Red Label for this, as Black Label's too smooth to taste through the Barenjager, and single malt would be a blasphemous waste!
The recipe calls it a Scotch Bear (Barenjager is German for "Bear Hunter"), but . . . if you turn that around, you get . . . Bare Scot. Sorta.
It's the same sort of idea as a Rusty Nail, and very good. I only drink 'em at Yule.

I usually have a micro brew. Lots of seasonal brews to pick from this time of year.
Which reminds me I need to take a trip to the liquor store.

Good to know. I think I'll crack it for the Sunnasblot at dawn . . . if you have a World Market nearby, they've got it in.

No world market, but Whole Foods may have it...
Otherwise I may have to get you to send me some...

True enough, but it's worth it...
It's been over 2 years since they made it...
No telling how long before they make it again... :?
