2 sleeps and Santa Clauses are coming from Kenny G

G'Day,

It is just like Christmas....I could not sleep last night thinking about the Santa Claus theme, there is no way it can't be a hit. We can cook "Rudolph burgers and sausages", serve Candy Cane shooters/ drinks, and give out Candy Canes at our tailgate. If you are planning on doing some of these , you may want to bring the liqueurs with you as not sure if there is an SAQ close by or the depanneur would have some of them. Check out # 3 and 5 !

for example;

1- "Candy Cane" shooter

1/3 oz. Creme de Menthe - (more)
1/3 oz. Grenadine - (more)
1/3 oz. Peppermint Schnapps - (more)

layer in shooter glass or cocktail glass w ice

2. Candy Cane Shooter

1/2 oz Grenadine
1/2 oz Crème De Menthe
1/2 oz Peppermint Schnapps
Layer in that order in a Cordial or Shooter glass.
Note: Depending on the brand, some Creme De Menthe liqueurs come in clear or green colours as does the Peppermint Schnapps. Try and buy your liqueurs so that you have one ingredient as clear and one as green, so that you can get the full 'candy cane' stripe effect.

3. Devil's Candy-Cane recipe
1/2 oz Rumple Minze peppermint liqueur
1/2 oz Bacardi 151 rum
1 splash grenadine syrup

Mix ingredients together in a shot glass, carefully ignite and allow to burn, then extinguish and shoot.

4. Mrs. Santa Claus recipe

1/2 oz chilled Firewater cinnamon schnapps
1/2 oz chilled Tequila Rose strawberry cream liqueur

Pour the Firewater into a shot glass. Top with the Tequila Rose liqueur, and serve.

5. Flaming Christmas Bastard (Shooter)

1 oz Dekuyper Hot Damn 100 Proof Cinnamon Schnapps,
1 oz Green Creme de Menthe, Peppermint Schnapps

Layer the creme de menthe and the Hot Damn, top with the Peppermint Schnapps and light on fire. Blow out the flame, rub an ice cube over the rim of the glass and drink!!! ALWAYS USE CAUTION WITH FIRE.


Weather is looking potentially damp with wet snow or maybe some rain and 3 degrees so the extra layer of the Santa Suits may come in handy! Speaking of suits should be able to get them at Zellers, Sears, Walmart and other places like that. If you are stuck, Cody's in Ottawa sells and rents
