Quick Holiday Gifts for the Unexpected
It’s inevitable that on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day, you will run into someone that you didn’t purchase a gift for. It used to happen to me all the time, even when I thought I had everyone covered!
I have found a way to fix this problem! Ta Da! Every year I run out to the thrift stores and buy four or five nice, unique bottles with corks (usually costs around one to two dollars each). I then go home and make homemade Kahula or Bailey’s and pour them into the bottles and put a couple in my car for my visits or visitors over the holidays! This way if I run into the unexpected, I’m covered! Below are my recipes for these quick gifts.
-

Take:
4 cups of water
3 cups of sugar
12 teaspoons of instant coffee

-
Bailey’s
