Default Drinks..is it wrong to like Cointreau?!

Just dusting off the Christmas drinks that never get a good sorting and came across the Cointreau.

Yes,I am normally a saddo real ale kind of person.Don't do lager.However,I can knock back the Port with the cheese.

Cointreaus great though! Any crap you drink during the festive season? Any Advocaat fans?? actually...don't mind a snort of that either

Although normally I drink G&T, wine or champagne.

Jagermeister is my new fav tipple.

I do remember my Dad used to make some drink at Xmas, called it a "snowball". Does anyone know what was in that? I might have to have a trip down memory lane this year.

It's November and you're already 'dusting off' the Xmas drinks?

Personally I don't mind G&T and a whisky either in coke or lemonade.

Not massively into Port, sherry etc.

Normally I just drink your typical Lagers and unadventurous wine.

Hmm like black/white Russians though.

Baileys is seriously ghey though.
