this is a gentle reminder to posters in this thread that the fediverse in general is nowhere near secure from an opsec perspective; don’t post anything that compromises yourself or us.

with that said, happy December 4th to those who celebrate. post commemorative cocktail recipes here.

e: remember, they call it the fediverse cause it’s full of feds

Oh Dec 4th, Universal Healthcare Day? One of my fav holidays.

Don't plan murders over the fediverse no

However celebrate that shit. We don't answer to advertisers, we're self and community funded.

This is one of the huge benefits of the fediverse.

Just made myself a lil spiked eggnog; just some cinnamon moonshine and oat milk eggnog in whatever ratios you prefer, topped with some freshly-grated cinnamon. I hadn't really felt too festive this holiday season thus far, but that's changed somewhat.

fuck yes. try it with alcoholic whipped cream if you can source some!

Oh hell yeah, that sounds like exactly what this needs! I'll have to look out for some next shopping trip

if you can't find any in the shop, whipped cream is amazingly easy to make at home! just mix liquor, vanilla, cream and sugar and beat the shit out of it with a whisk or mixer

that sounds amazing! the cans of alcoholic whipped cream I’ve got are non-dairy (so technically whipped topping, also don’t refrigerate it or it’ll go terribly wrong) and vodka-based and now I really want to try making some bourbon whipped cream

I have heard that egg nog and orange soda is a surprisingly good drink.

Sounds kind of like a boozy, fizzy Orange Julius...so, yeah, it could work.
