Snowball


Well, I've found you the perfect drink to serve this Christmas. Or rather Nigella has found it for all of us. The Snowball is AMAZING!!!! How did this drink fall off people's radars???? This drink has retro chic appeal - it's the ultimate egg nog-ish drink. To make this drink you put one part advocaat, 3 parts lemonade and then a dash of lime juice. Advocaat - for those who don't know is an egg based liqueur. When I poured it out into a shot glass I was not impressed. It looked thick and gross. But I am so glad I didn't let that deter me from tasting this drink because as soon as this drink hit the back of my throat, music came on in my mind and it was 'Cheek to Cheek'...♫♪Heaven, I'm in Heaven♪♫ you know the one. So go make yourself a snowball to put you in the Christmas mood - or even just the winter mood - this is the best drink for Christmas gatherings for sure. If you serve this at your party everyone will be blown away because it's not the norm for these days but we can start a movement to bring it back! I'm mad about retro these days and this drink has it all for me - retro flare, amazing taste and it's a Christmas classic!
Here's a little video to get you in the right mind frame.
