However, you don’t have to break the bank.
Note: Some say you don’t need a quality bottle of whiskey because you will infuse if with plenty of flavor, but I think a decent bottle of whiskey is a good call. Note: Generally, the mixture should steep for a total of 8 days. When the flavor reaches the desired intensity, strain and re-bottle. Let stand for three to four more days, tasting after the first day to test the flavor intensity. Shake the container and let stand for five days, shaking daily.Īfter five days, add the dried chili peppers to the container and shake. Pour the whole bottle of whisky into your large container.Īdd the cinnamon sticks and sugar and seal. This drink can make an awesome hostess gift as well during the season! In some upcoming posts, I’ll also show you what else you can do with this stuff.ġ Bottle of whiskey (I used Scotch Whiskey, but you can use Bourbon as well) If you ordered whiskey at an English pub you would get Scotch, never Bourbon. That’s how I’m giving it my British spin. I’m using Scottish Whiskey rather than what you may see Fireball Whiskey more commonly made out of, which is Bourbon. That heat will warm you right up during the cold winter! It’s also very easy to make. It’s called Fireball because it has bit of a kick in it from red chili peppers that are steeped in the whiskey for days. To start off, let’s make some Fireball Cinnamon Infused Whiskey. Isn’t it simply the warmest and most sensational spice with a scent that makes your entire home smell like Christmas? This year, I have been inspired by cinnamon. Pour apple cider into a tall mug, about 6 ounces works well. The sugar isnt necessary and can be switched with honey but the sweetness really adds a dimension to the overall drink. This time of year some spice in our libations are in order. Gather the simple ingredients - apple cider, Fireball Whiskey (or any cinnamon flavored whiskey), vanilla vodka and some sugar. Holiday CocktailsĪ holiday party wouldn’t be complete without cocktails, so I’ll be dropping a few cocktail recipes as well. That means small sumptuous individualized portions of classics from the United Kingdom in whole. Check in every week to see how the Brits might do a cocktail party spread this holiday season. I’ll be putting a spin on some traditional recipes and bringing to you holiday party food British style.
So, don’t be surprised to see an eclectic mix. Now we all know that the English, get many of their recipes from the Irish and Scotts, and some are even rooted in India. We all tend to regress back to our roots during the holidays, and for me during Christmas time it’s good old traditional English food. When I was thinking a repertoire of recipes to feature for the final month of this year, it seems that every dish that appealed to me just happened to originate from the United Kingdom. I’m devoting the rest of this year to holiday food, but more so to holiday party food.
