HA! Good one!

I guess it IS time to get a batch of Bailey’s and a batch of Kahlua started for the holidays. Thanks for the reminder. :)

If you have an Aldi’s nearby, they have a store-brand Irish Cream that’s pretty good and much cheaper than Bailey’s...............

Thanks! I’ll actually be near an Aldi tomorrow while we’re running errands in a bigger Two-Horse Town, versus our One-Horse Town. ;)

Homemade is still cheaper, though:

And I have the BEST liqueur of them all. Curacao Blue liqueur. Made from distilling the extract of the pressed skins of Valencia oranges grown ONLY in Curacao. And I will be mixing some of it up for Curacao Blue Margaritas for my Thanksgiving dinner. Also the BEST Margaritas in the world.

I’ve been in the process of making lemon verbena liqueur for weeks now. Almost ready for tasting!

Herbal liqueur is among the oldest types of liqueurs, descending from medicinal recipes.
Yes, always for medicinal purposes, of course.
