The first glass from the box i am all like, "hey this isn't bad for wine in a box. Wonder if wine in a bottle would really be that much better?" By the 3rd glass, I no longer care, and I have a feeling it would be the same if that wine came from a bottle too. :)Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01805403370463885686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3678998574963856841.post-71404785888254494422013-11-23T12:10:21.799+10:302013-11-23T12:10:21.799+10:30Time for an old favourite like a Grasshopper or a ...Time for an old favourite like a Grasshopper or a Pina Colada I think ????Helsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15136273834165751276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3678998574963856841.post-88401383268896143872013-11-23T08:44:37.886+10:302013-11-23T08:44:37.886+10:30Holy food colouring high Batman!

Of course this involved a trip to Uncle Dan's because we are such newbies when it comes to cocktails and the guy on the register said "oh you must behaving a cocktail party". Yeah sort of I said - I wasn't going to admit it was just the hubby and I. "Are you making Fruit Tingles?" he asked? So of course I had to get the recipe from him and make those too - yum!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3678998574963856841.post-6709077310033198912013-11-22T08:00:25.143+10:302013-11-22T08:00:25.143+10:30I'll pass......somehow I think dropping candy ...I'll pass......somehow I think dropping candy corn in a glass of moscato wouldn't be the same......Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04461697058136548513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3678998574963856841.post-67613519590317726752013-11-21T22:02:01.315+10:302013-11-21T22:02:01.315+10:30Wow, you had me at 'paint thinner'.
I...Wow, you had me at 'paint thinner'. <br /><br />I'm still reeling over $10 for a bag of candy corn!!!!! You poor Aussies. How do you come up with the unicorn, magic carpet, hen's teeth references?? No wonder you can't sleep!<br /><br />Definitely take Larri up on her offer of the bourbon slush - it's refreshing and would be perfect for the gorgeous weather I hope you're having. And, here's hoping you don't have to go to Dan Murphy's for supplies! You know, maybe a booze company would sponsor your blog (or a candy corn company).

Thanks for trying it so the rest of us don't have to learn what paint stripper must taste like. I so wish you didn't have a nut allergy, because the way we eat candy corn is with M&Ms and peanuts. Tastes like a Butterfinger candy bar...but I guess you don't know what those taste like...so you're not missing anything ;)<br /><br />Loving your Cocktail Wednesday posts. PS...When we dine at the in-law's for Thanksgiving (this year!) we drink Bourbon Slush. If you want the recipe, just let me know.
