So, its close to the party that everyone loves to hate. All year around you hear people moan that there aren't many traditions, were everyone comes together and celebrates and suddenly here is one yet no one cares. To be fair, we are all still carrying our food baby bellies from christmas and are curing mulld wine hangovers that even the best "New Year-New You-wheatgrass-high protein-non fat-vitamine bomb" won't fix. This year however I am determined to dust myself off and cover myself in glitter - because I have decided it's party time. Join me to get yourself in da mood, if you like. First things first though-
Alcohol.
1. EggnogEew..I know, but my Mum's friend makes the most delicious Eggnog of all time. I asked for the recipe so that I could share it with you guys but apparently its top secret or something and many lives would be at risk if it would be revealed. It does however taste like vanilla heaven straight from the sugar plum fairies sugar castle laced with liquid joy and a dash of sparkling unicorn tears...so if you have all these ingredients - put them all in a coconut and mix them all up.
2. Ice Ice Baby.
There are many ways to jazz up your ice. Grab an ice cube maker tray, and pop in some fruit, edible flowers, edible glitter, food colouring - just go nuts with it.
3. Cocktails
Toasted coconut vanilla limeade with tequila from the "Kitchykitchen" 1 1/4 cup lime juice, fresh squeezed1 cup sweet coconut flakes, packed2 1/2 cups hot water, plus 1 1/2 cups cool water1/4 cup agave nectar1/2 vanilla bean, scraped (or 1 teaspoon vanilla paste)Tequila, Vodka or Rum (as you need)Preheat oven to 350 F. Lightly toast the coconut on a baking sheet, thinly spread out, for about 5-7 minutes, stirring once halfway through. Juice the limes and put all of the used halves into a bowl, along with the coconut and vanilla bean (or vanilla paste), and cover with 2 cups of hot water. Let it sit for about 10 minutes. The hot water pulls all of the natural oils out of the lime skins and adds so much flavor. Strain into a blender and add the water, lime juice, and agave nectar. Blend until just incorporated. Pour into a pitcher and chill in the fridge until ready to serve. Add the alcohol and smile.
Getting Party ready.
Yeee...this is the good shiz. All year around my attire is whatever I can find first on my bedroom floor mixed with the warmest shoes and socks. So this year I would like to be inspired and resemble my forever icon - the sugar plum fairy, well at least I can try and dream.
