Not being one to promote heavy drinking during the holidays (snort!), I caution you... this is not for the kiddies or guests you would not wish to spend the night (read: pass out 'til tomorrow) on your living room floor.
It is, however, a delightful little pick-me up between family portraits never meant to be and visits to Santa. In fact, I've decided to incorporate it in all of my future celebrating.
My friend severed it at her party this evening and it was hit. I recommend you try a few, especially if your holiday season has been less than wonder and magic... This will bring that spark back!
