The S-Word
No, I’m not talking about that s-word. The s-word that I’m talking about is stress. I’ve been hearing it a lot lately, mainly people saying that the holidays are stressful, etc. I’m not usually stressed out by the holidays — well, the part about putting 4 boys in a vehicle and transporting them hundreds of miles is a bit stressful, but that isn’t the fault of the holidays. So, I have a little recommendation for those who are stressed. Listen to some music, like maybe some fun Christmas music, and, while you’re at it, drink an eggnog martini. In fact, even though I’m not stressed, I think that I’d drink one right now all except that I’m missing the cinnamon schnapps, and I think that it’s probably an important ingredient.

Eggnog Martini

1.5 oz. vodka
1.5 oz. amaretto
3 oz. eggnog
Splash of cinnamon schnapps
Sprinkle of nutmeg

• Chill the first 4 ingredients in a shaker with ice.
• Strain into a chilled martini glass.
• Sprinkle with the nutmeg.

I got the recipe from Sauce Magazine.
