A Christmas Cocktail, Coole Swan Alexander, a cocktail to try after dinner when you are in need of a sweet creamy dessert. This cocktail brings equal parts Coole Swan Irish Cream, Brandy/Cognac and Chocolate Liqueur front and center for a great sweet flavorful experience. Dark chocolate in the front, creamy white chocolate in the center with a mild oak like finish. Or, perhaps like Derrick you get the oak first and chocolate last. Either way is great. Recipe: 1 oz. coole swan irish cream, 1 oz. brandy/cognac, 1 oz. chocolate liqueur

Our first Christmas cocktail, the green russian. What makes it fit the holiday season? Well, first, it is green! Secondly, I have a santa hat. Third, because it has the mint and other seasonal flavors to it… you know… like absinthe and milk, just the stuff you leave Santa and his reindeer. Recipe: 2 oz. Absinthe, 2 oz. Vodka, 1 oz. Creme de Menthe, 2 oz. Milk

360 Vodka's Glazed Donut Vodka -- the review. This product brings the sweetness like no other vodka we have tasted. Not only does it provide the vehicle for carrying awesome donut glaze but it does it in such a way that you feel that these are actual donuts and not simply an artificial donut-like flavor. I do not know the magic that was used to build the glazed donut vodka but it was right on target for the awesome factor.

The Hurricane Cocktail, a classic cocktail that we used to top the night of a 12-string recording frenzy. Yes, we created 11 video's before this one (released in the past) and this is where all the glory finally comes to an end. In the end, I think this recipe needs more passion fruit syrup to really kick up the passion. Recipe: 4 oz. Dark Rum, 1 oz. Lemon Juice, 2 oz. Orange Juice, 1/2 - 1 oz Passion Fruit Juice/Syrup, Top with Club Soda.

The Brass Monkey Cocktail, it is like the screwdriver with rum in it. A watery orange juice without a big blast of alcohol. In general, tastes like a screwdriver. To gain a more dark sweetness we had to add a bit more dark rum, it is your call, thoughts? Recipe: 1 oz. Vodka, 3 oz. orange juice, 1 oz. dark rum

The Blind Jamaican is a cocktail which brings the flavor of coffee together with that of coconut. Espresso coffee in a dark french roast with a rich creamy texture and hints of coconut which may remind some people of a coconut flavored coffee like that of Green Mountain Coconut Island coffee. Recipe: 1 oz. Coconut Rum, 1 oz. Irish Cream, 1 oz. Coffee Liqueur

The .40 caliber cocktail starts closing in on the end of our 12-set marathon recording we did last month (one left which will launch on Friday).

Sailor Jerry's Spiced Rum, 1/4 oz. Patron XO, 3 Dashes of Angostura Bitters.

The Blue Grass shooter brings something to the show we have never seen before: Oddka Fresh Cut Grass "Vodka." A spirit that has the aroma of wet cut grass after you have cut your lawn (for those that have lawns). While the recipe reads "Blueberry Liqueur" it's initial idea is to bring in some "blue" but all our blueberry liqueur/schnapps is clear. So we are using Blue Curacao for the effect. Recipe: 1 oz. Oddka Fresh Cut Grass Vodka, 1/2 Lemon, Splash of Blueberry LIqueur (or Blue Curacao).

The vodka martini recipe battles it out with Ol' Smoky in an alternative vodka martini that does not use vodka at all. So, head-to-head battle of recipes, who will win? I chose twenty 2 vodka as my spirit of choice to battle the whiskey. Recipe: 1 1/2 oz. Vodka, Dash of Orange Bitters, Vermouth Rinse

The Billy Bob Collins cocktail recipe utilizes moonshine or its equivalent (white whiskey) to build a mild sour. The recipe builds on the idea that moonshine doesn't have to be a substitute or overly potent cocktail build out but can actually provide flavor and a great tasting experience. Recipe: 1 1/2 oz. Moonshine, 3/4 oz. Simple Syrup, 3/4 oz. Fresh Lemon Juice, Club Soda

We are scotch whisky tasting again, this time we're focusing on the Islands and primarily talking about and tasting Ardbeg, a single malt scotch--a scotch whisky distillery on the south coast of the isle of Islay, Argyll and Bute, Scotland, in the Inner Hebrides group of islands Ardbeg claims to be the most peatiest Islay whisky and from our tasting, it should show truth in that claim.

Curtis McMillan sits down and educates us on scotch. Our products for the night: The Balvenie 12-year, Balvenie 21-year and Auchentoshan single malt. If you are looking to learn more about scotch than this is the video for you. It is time to get some education and some tasting notes across a few scotch product lines. Next, we will jump into Ardbeg 10-year single malt with a much different taste.

The Godmother cocktail, a very simple a classic little number that most people can do at home and enjoy. Why? It's got two simple spirits: amaretto and vodka! The drink definitely brings a good amaretto flavor with a kicked up alcohol by volume, a good way to ease into vodka or utilize one of your higher shelf vodka products. Recipe: 2 oz. Vodka, 1 oz. Amaretto
