blizzard NYC Not sure what the weather is where you are. Here it's icy cold (love it!) and windy but sunny. We had a dusting of snow over the weekend, but nothing to resemble a snowstorm, and certainly nothing resembling a blizzard.

But that doesn't mean we can't have a blizzard tonight. Several of them, in fact. I've found a bunch of different recipes for a cocktail called the Blizzard, including this one from Cocktail.com that includes Chambord, vodka, Kahlua, and white creme de cacao; this one from SuperCocktails.com that uses brandy, Irish cream, coffee liqueur, and white rum; and this one for a Kickin' Blizzard that uses ice cream.

The quirkiest variation I've found is this one called The Bleeding Blizzard, which mixes beer, Kool-Aid, and peach Schnapps!

It's freezing here in NY Bob we are at a whopping high of 7 degrees, so some high octane spirits are needed to warm our engines lol.

I'll hand it to the Bleeding Blizzard on one count. It sounds like something you'd HAVE to make when snowed in and you have to make do with whatever's in the pantry.
