Pomegranate Martini



Let's toast to a healthy and happy New Year with  delicious Martini.

I have been planning to make this cocktail since Thanksgiving. Due to various reasons, I wasn't able to make it earlier. I had focused on baking and cooking mostly. That's my top priority always. Finally I am ready to make this delightful sweet-tart  cocktail with freshly  home made juice for New YEAR'S  Eve. This is my first time making Martini. Fresh pomegranate juice mixed with good quality Vodka and Cointreau or Triple sec, lime juice and crushed ice make absolutely fantastic cocktail for any holidays. If you are hosting a party, serve this Martini to brighten up the celebration.

Eggnog

                                            

Christmas spirit is quite incomplete without Eggnog, a festive drink at most households. Traditional Eggnog is made of milk, sugar, heavy cream, raw eggs, vanilla
and spices. This kid friendly Eggnog is made by slowly cooking the eggs with milk and sugar to eliminate salmonella poisoning. This will be part of our holiday tradition now on.

Turkey Shepherd's Pie

                                            


We had a big fancy Thanksgiving dinner with a soft n succulent turkey roasted by my friend and I knew I would make Sheppard's Turkey Pie with leftover turkey. What a wonderful way to gobble up leftover turkey!
