Apple Brumble
Mulled Wine
A less soporific alternative to the tradition of mulled wine at Christmas, baking the apples gives it a real festive feel. While you are at it you could do a couple of extra apples but for a shorter time and put a slice into each drink.
Sidecar
If you fancy a cognac based cocktail, you cannot do much better than a Sidecar. It can be pretty dry so rimming the glass with a little sugar can take the edge off. The quantities given here, although maintaining the classic 2:1:1 ratio, are more than sufficient for the glass, allowing the excess to be served in a shot glass on the side, in other words, a Sidecar.
