These are a few of my favourite drinks...

"Oh the weather outside is frightful, but the fire is so delightful, and since we have no place to go - let it snow let it snow let it snow."     There's something about this time of year that just begs for a drink for any visit before and during the holidays.  Here is my list of drinks, wines and beers that i like to stock during this festive time:

  1. Shlog 'n nog:  
    New twist on an old favourite that I found during my time in Muskoka.  Eggnog and Goldschlager.  Just try it - you'll thank me.

  2. Scotch/Whiskey:
    Jameson.  Nice and neat.  Not to overpowering - perfect with some ice.

  3. Red Wine: Union Red Wine.
    Just a nice everyday table red.

  4. Red Wine: The Wolftrap.
    Just a bit more flavour than Union. Again - good every day table with a little extra flavour.

  5. Red Wine:
    Casilero Del Dialblo Shiraz.  Powerful and Spicy Red.  Offer this if you want to get them talking. About the wine or anything else

  6. White Wine:
    Union White Wine.  Nice and mellow - not to sweet.  For the Ladies.

  7. White Wine:
    Bogogne. Great with cheese.

  8. Beer:
    Sleeman's Cream Ale.  Its crisp. Its clean tasting. It's Canadian.  The Indian Pale Ale is also very good.

    This is a seasonal ale that they sell in Vancouver only around Christmas. I loved drinking it and wish I could find it here in Thunder Bay. So tasty!

  2. I haven't had wolftrap in a while! Casillero del diably carmeniere is obviously superior to the shiraz though...just saying.
