Mele Kalikimaka Martini

Day 299



Mele Kalikimaka Martini
5 shots out of 5


Mele Kalikimaka Martini is the perfect combination of eggnog, pineapple and coconut flavors that will make you think you're enjoying your cocktail on the beaches of Hawaii!




Another Monday.  

This is the last week that my husband has of work and then he's off for three whole weeks!!  

I'm sooo excited.  

Especially with the holidays right around the corner, it will be nice having him home with me and the kids when they are off on their break as well.


I gave tonight's cocktail 5 shots out of 5.  

Oh......my........goodness this cocktail is amazing!!  

What a nice change compared to the "not so good" cocktails I've had lately.  

I am going to have to go out and buy a real bottle of this vodka and some more eggnog so that I can make more of these.  

The pineapple flavor in the vodka and the cream of coconut add SUCH a nice twist to this eggnog cocktail.  

Who'd have ever thought of this combo?  Someone very smart I must say!  I found tonight's cocktail recipe at barnonedrinks.
