Recipe News: HOLIDAY DRINKS: Making spirits bright

"The holidays are a great time to reconnect with friends and family, give thoughtful gifts and contemplate the greater things that tie us all together.

They’re also the ultimate way to clean out your liquor cabinet.

Unfortunately, society seriously frowns on re-gifting opened liquor bottles, however full the item or grateful the recipient. And pouring it out is just wrong.

Instead, pick a Friday, Saturday or even weekend night out of the calendar this month, leaving yourself time to clean the day before. Run through your cell phone contacts, call up some friends and nearby family, and plan on having a Ridiculously Holiday-Themed Get-Together, with a little help from a few drink recipes Night & Day has put together for you.

For the three drinks you saw on the cover, all credit goes to Frank Ryan, bartender extraordinaire at Western Door: A Seneca Steakhouse at the Seneca Niagara Casino & Hotel. A few other recipes will help set up your basic nog and virgin drinks.

Relax, enjoy something red and green, and drink responsibly."
