Make time for a holiday toast at the Four Seasons
Who knew tequila, bourbon and rum could ring in the holiday cheer. They will if you mix them with ingredients such as Eggnog, chocolate and hot apple cider, as 
does the Four Seasons Resort in Scottsdale at Troon North, 10600 E. Crescent Moon Dr. (Map it.)
Between now and January 1, 2009, get your “Seasons” Greetings by the glassful with these three holiday cocktail specials. At $16 each, they’re sure to warm you up as the weather cools down.
For those of you who won’t be in town or get to the resort in time, here are the recipes to try at home:
“Sonoran” Eggnog
- 1 1/2 oz. Don Julio Tequila
- 1 oz. melted Mexican Chocolate
- Eggnog
Mix all ingredients, serve warm. Garnish with a chocolate cigar and serve in a martini glass.
“Sweet S’more”
- 1 1/2 oz Monte Cristo-12 year aged rum
- Fresh Hot Chocolate Mix
Prepare hot chocolate, add rum. Garnish with a graham cracker crust rim and a homemade marshmallow.
Troon Bourbon Cider
- 6 oz. Hot Apple Cider
- 2 whole cloves
- 1 1/2 oz Basil Hayden Bourbon
- 1 cinnamon stick (as garnish)
Mix all together, and serve warm.
