      Favorite Christmas song: Silent Night

      Favorite Christmas candy: Andes

      Favorite Christmas adult drink: Peppermint Hot Chocolate w/whipped cream or Egg nog. Non-alcoholic. I don't drink, never started. Seemed not worth it from watching the adults in the 70's - 80's.

              Favorite Christmas song: Hallelujah (Christmas version) - our children’s choir sings this at church on Christmas Eve and they belt it out. Love the little voices! Brings me tears knowing there won’t be a children’s choir this year. Just thankful we can still attend church!

              Favorite Christmas adult drink: whisky slush

                  I looked up the recipe and my Grandma called them “Sneaky Pete’s” 😂
                  1 Lg can Frozen Lemonade Juice
                  1 Lg can frozen orange juice
                  1 Lg can frozen strawberry juice
                  1/4 cup powdered sugar
                  64 oz 7-up
                  1 Fifth Vodka
                  Mix and freeze til it’s slushy
                  To make the drink mix 1/2 glass slush mix with 7-up
                  It makes a lot, but you can keep it in the freezer for a long time!

                    Now that sounds interesting. Have to ask though...why is it called Whiskey Slush if it takes vodka?
                    Thinking I'll halve the recipe and keep it on hand.
                    Valerie, thanks for asking and Gumdrops, thanks for sharing!!

                      I’m not sure. It’s what my mom has always called it, but I thought the same thing when I was typing it. Maybe there are variations to the recipe that I’m not aware of :confused:

                              Apple cider and Fireball😁 may have to try this. If you put a shot of Fireball into a glass of Angry Orchard beer, you get a drink called Angry Balls. I have not tried that one either, but it was popular amongst my bowling league friends.
