Researching Cold Weather Alcoholic Drinks & More

Researching Cold Weather Alcoholic Drinks

First, I was curious to find out if an actual cocktail existed that contained both brandy and milk.

I found one that did: a breakfast cocktail called a Brandy Milk Punch.

A Brandy Milk Punch contains milk, brandy, and nutmeg, but unlike my concoction from the previous night, is meant to be served cold and on ice. (Click here for the recipe.)

I continued my internet search to find out more about warm cocktails.
