Christmas decorations seem to appear as soon as we take the turkey out of the oven on Thanksgiving (if not sooner!), and it’s hard to walk past a vacant lot now that isn’t selling Christmas trees, or a store window that isn’t covered in snowflakes, reindeer, and pictures of Santa Claus. Whether you celebrate Christmas or not, the celebration of “Christmastime” can be tough to escape - but it’s hard to be irked by all-Christmas radio stations and dancing snowmen lawn ornaments when there are so many good foods to be had! From gingerbread men to peppermint ice cream to standing rib roast, this season has something incredible to offer everyone.
It may be hard to look ahead to the next holiday while still trying to use up Thanksgiving’s leftovers, but this week’s “Poll of the Week” should help get you in the mood to start planning your holiday party - Little Scarlet wants to know what’s your favorite Yuletide drink?
Don’t forget to leave a Comment below about your favorite “Christmastime” food tradition!

ReplyDeleteever hear of fish house punch? delicious and colonial! (something about christmas always makes me think of ye olde days - maybe it was my felicity doll growing up) it's a good drink for any rum lover, even if it has a weird name
ReplyDeleteDefinitely egg nog with rum, and a sprinkle of fresh nutmeg on top.
ReplyDeleteWe love hot cocoa around here and this year I'm going through all my cookbooks to try different homemade recipes. Generally, I am sad to admit, we just used store bought mixes.
ReplyDeleteSome of the recipes are good, some are weak but so far none have failed.
Hot cider! Wee shot of rum! Perfect!
