Birthday Booze!

It's birthday season around here! If you can believe it,all three members of our little family have a birthday in the month of January.  We just call it birthday month. To celebrate my birthday since we didn't get around to making our 10th cake of the month we made:

Boozey Birthday Cake Shakes
1 Pint of Ice Cream
2 Shots of Bourbon
Whipped Cream
Food Color (if desired)
Sprinkles

Could we have any more balloons?
Now, the thing about this particular drink is that it's the last one we'll be enjoying 'till March 1.  Boo! Hiss! We're going to make it a Dry February and try and work off some of that birthday cake, holiday weight and booze.  So if no one has any objections, and since I think all of three people read this blog and likely don't care.... February posts won't have anything to do with booze! (Egads!) but I promise to try and make them equally fun.  Keep in mind February is a short month and the booze posts will be back before you know it! 

Cheers!

Floating Away

You know what goes with almost anything? A shot of booze.  A shot of booze will get almost any drink up on it's feet and make it a lot more fun to drink.  Case in point; a root beer float is absolutely DELIGHTFUL with a shot of dark rum.  Now you may not think that cold drink like this would be a good choice on such a cold winter day, but I learned long ago from Cliff Claven that you should drink cold drinks on cold days, and hot drinks on hot days, despite what common sense would dictate.  I have no idea if that's true or not, but in my opinion, any day is a good day for a root beer float with booze in it!

Winter Root Beer Float
1 oz Dark Rum
1 Can RootBeer
Vanilla IceCream


Cheers!
