It is the festive season and some people like a nice tipple, well I am so full of food I haven't drunk that much alcohol over xmas,apart from xmas eve where I had a bottle of wine and I am not used to it, I was pretty ill xmas day
and I drunk coke all day, I am a big baileys lover and I have had a couple of baileys coffees tonight, they are so yummy but I only like to drink it at this time of year. I also love mulled wine, my local co op usually sell it and its so nice but I never noticed it this year so I have had to go without but def baileys coffe or baileys in hot chocolate is yummy. Whats your favourite drink-doesn't have to be alcoholic just something nice and wintery.xx

I like a nice hot cup of tea, preferably herbal with a citrusy flavor like tangerine or mandarin orange. I do also like hot cider on occasion, but it's too sweet for me to drink much of it.

I've had a couple of wines over Christmas. It's Summer here but I enjoy wine all year long. I probably drink about a glass of wine a week averaged over a year. On New Years I'm going be drinking Midori and Pineapple juice with lots of ice. YUM.

I'm drinking Diet A&W right now
That's probably my current favorite soft drink. My favorite alcoholic drink is Malibu & Pineapple or a margarita on the rocks.

On Thanksgiving, Christmas eve/day, New Years eve/day I always have Eggnog. It's my favorite holiday drink.

Also apple cider every fall between Halloween and Thanksgiving.

Ahh, winter brings lots of lovely spicy, roasty beers like Russian imperial stouts, Belgian Christmas ales (usually doubles or spicy strong dark ales), and of course my favorite, Anchor Brewing's Christmas Ale, or Tree Beer as I call it, which is made with a different recipe every year. Has a bit of a piney spice to it. YUM! BF got me a 1.5L bottle of it for xmas this year (and the past 2 years)! Definitely a bottle to share.
We've got quite a few Christmassy beers in the beer 'cellar' from years back, it's interesting to see the changes a year or 2 or 10 makes.

I also like Bailey's in coffee, but I drink that on most weekends throughout the year, not just winter.

Lots of wine for me, especially during the dinners. Eggnog and rum or coke and rum have been consumed. I really want some Baileys with coffee now! Must go buy some.

Coffee "spiked" with so-called bar syrup - usually vanilla, Irish cream or hazelnut. I also like oolong tea or slightly flavored mineral water.

Right now I'm having my second cup of coffee.
