Flavors, Scents and Sounds of the Season - a list by hanahula

Options for This Page

About this list:

The scent of pine, a roaring fire, maple candy . . . these are just a few of my favorite holiday things. And the list only gets bigger as time goes on. So, in the spirit of the season, I would like to share my list with you . . . maybe you'll be inspired to add a few of these things to your own tradition (if you haven't already.)

Qualifications:

I come from a long line of merrymakers.

Original Sin: Hard Cider

First to recommend

Description

Hard Cider is an acquired taste, for sure, but "Original Sin" has got a tangy sweetness that satisfies. Just sip it slow. Although sweet, it is truly "hard", packing a mean wallop if you don't respect its status as a liquor. Good cheer gifting (and getting.)
