How To Tolerate Your Relatives During Thanksgiving

Apple Spiced Cocktail

Yes, Southerner’s take pride in our family gatherings. In the weeks before any event we are emailing, telephoning and dropping by just to make certain all of the food comes off without a hitch and that we don’t end up with a dozen green bean casseroles and no potato salad. But all of this extended family time can take a toll on the nerves. So, if you don’t have a prescription for Xanax or Valium, you might want to try the Apple Spiced Cocktail. It may keep you chilled just enough to prevent you from reaching through the phone and strangling your sister-in-law. Just remember: nobody likes a sloppy drunk, so please drink responsibly.
