Gourmet Cocktails: What Real Texans Drink for Christmas and the New Year
by Ana Gomez Montalbano on 12/30/15
Nothing is more grand than a hearty feast during the holidays and a cheerful toast ringing in the new year. Brace yourself as we have uncovered some of the most untypical exotic drinks created beyond the holiday delish.
1. Eggnog. Always a favorite during the holidays but whip it up with the right liquor and sit back and enjoy. Our favorite mixes are Kahlua, Rum, nutmeg, topped off with whipped cream. We love Rum because its sweet yet spicy with a smooth texture and doesn't take away from the other flavors of any drink. Cheers!
2. Grinchmas. A green flavored drink but again, we add Rum so the other flavors are apparent too. Add lemon-lime, and a teaspoon of syrup over chopped ice and wowwee!
3. Chelada. Beer is big in Texas but kick it up a notch with a Chelada. Its usually served with Mexican Beer, such as Corona, but in Texas it doesn't matter which beer. Add lime juice, tomato juice and pour over ice, salt the rim and garnish with lime and you got yourself a beer cocktail!
From all of us at Roadside Texas, and AG Insurance Solutions, we hope you have an enjoyable holiday season. The state of Texas DPS will be on the roads. If you go out and have a drink, make sure you ride home with a sober driver. Happy New Year!
