They Draw And Cook

This really fun and inspiring blog called They Draw And Cook had a Holiday Contest I entered and my artwork was posted today.  I didn't win anything, but it is still fun to see my drawing among all these amazing and creative people.  If you haven't checked out their site, please do.  You can click here to see a bigger version of my work.  My drawing is based off my crazy Grandma Dixie's punch recipe that she would make every year for Christmas.

Dixie's Punch

Here is a very festive punch, which my grandma Dixie always made during the holidays. It is very simple and delicious. I made it for my coworkers last Friday and it was a hit. But beware, it can be dangerous depending on how much you drink ;)

Here are the ingredients which servers about 10-20 people (depending on how much they drink):

-1 can frozen orange juice, thawed

-1 can frozen lemonade, thawed

-1 can frozen limeade, thawed

-1 large bottle apricot nectar

-3 two-liter bottles of ginger ale - or more if you like

-Vodka, optional (As much as you can handle as my grandma would say)

-Fresh sliced fruit for garnish (I used oranges, lemons, and cranberries)

Pour everything together and stir until mixed well. Throw in fruit as a garnish. Enjoy!
