Nummy Cocktail... a must try for the New Year! :)

I absolutely love Sandra Lee! She cooks the way I like to.  :)  It's fast and easy but still gives the sense of not cooking from a box or mix.  I also love the way she adds a little extra to things or decorations to make everyone feel special.  I think we have all forgotten how to make ourselves and others feel special.  You don't have to spend scads of money, just take the time to make a meal special.

The following cocktail isn't just for Christmas, if you like eggnog this is a must have for winter weekends.
