Christmas Cookie

Day 308

Christmas Cookie

4 shots out of 5

It's been a looong time since I've gotten my hair cut.  Tomorrow morning will be the day that I get it chopped and colored (which I haven't done since I was pregnant with my first......some 14 years ago!)  Needless to say......I'm REALLY excited!!  One and a half more days of school and the kids are officially on winter break, yeay!!

I gave tonight's cocktail 4 shots out of 5.  This cocktail is a good one.  You can almost taste every ingredient in a certain order when you take a sip.  First I get the Kahlua flavor, after a couple seconds the Baileys kicks in for a brief second and then it's a pepperminty surprise at the end.  Very interesting, I must say!  These three ingredients go pretty well together.  Whenever you have Baileys and Kahlua together (in my opinion) it's always a good mix.  I found tonight's cocktail at mixthatdrink.

Here is the recipe for a Christmas Cookie (no oven needed!):

• 1 1/2 oz Baileys
• 1 1/2 oz Kahlua
• 1 1/2 oz peppermint schnapps
• red & green sugar crystals (for rimming glass)

In a shaker, add ice and all of the ingredients above.  Shake and strain into a red & green sugar rimmed martini glass.

Here is a photo of the end result:

Here's to enjoying Christmas Cookies two different ways!
