Currently sipping a cup of tea... may break out some fizz or open a bottle of wine later.

Considered making some cocktails with the left over spirits from Xmas but I don't think I can be bothered!

What's your tipple of choice this evening?

Aldi fake fizz for me (pregnant), probably red wine for him.

I offered to pick up a bottle of the real stuff for him but he claims no point as he won’t manage a bottle on his own and it doesn’t keep

Two bottles of champagne between me and dp, done and dusted 😀. We’ll be in bed by 10.

Our New Year’s Eve varies so much from partying all night to the opposite - I love our pj night tonight.

ScreamingValenta · 31/12/2018 19:31

Red wine. We've got some Cava to drink at midnight.

tinydancer88 · 31/12/2018 19:32

Gin and elderflower tonic. Gin

Along with an odd assortment of snacks instead of a proper meal.

DogMamma · 31/12/2018 19:33

Tea lemon and honey...full of cold...will have a nice glug (from the measured dose cup) of night nurse about 10 though! 😴😴😴

letsdolunch321 · 31/12/2018 19:33

Processco here. Cheers 🥳

Tinyteatime · 31/12/2018 19:35

Cava and then a bottle of champagne for midnight ( if we are still Awake).

mmmgoats · 31/12/2018 19:36

Espresso martini! With a dash of salted caramel.

Whatever's left over in the fridge - egg nog and ginger gin I think. Might make hot nogolate Xmas Grin

DH has done his usual trick of waiting til I have some holiday and then getting ill so instead of sharing a bottle of champagne and some nibbles this evening he's in bed and I'll be doing the washing up, eating some Christmas cake and watching Bones on Prime.

ikltownofboothlehem · 31/12/2018 19:38

We've got a choice of:

6 cans of IPA
Bottle of red wine
Full bottle of Baileys
2.5 bottles of gin
Bottle of very decent whisky
2 bottles Prosecco

(Presents we've not got round to drinking because we've had the lurgy).

LordPickle · 31/12/2018 19:40

For some bizarre reason, DH went and picked up ingredients for Black Russians (something we've only drank once, years ago on holiday Confused) so that's what we're drinking. TBF, they are actually pretty good, but it's just a very random thing for us.

LucilleBluth · 31/12/2018 19:40

Fizz ( cava) in my new fizz glasses.

GreyGardens88 · 31/12/2018 19:40

Stoli then prosecco at midnight

mrsed1987 · 31/12/2018 19:40

Tea and juice (pregnant!) Although my husband will be doing the same as he isnt a big drinker!

YahBasic · 31/12/2018 19:43

Verve Clicquot. Got another 1.5l bottle in the fridge and nearly finished the first Grin

Also got vodka and Aldi gin, so could end up making G&Ts depending on what sort of mood we are in or how asleep we are!

TowerRingInferno · 31/12/2018 19:48

Decaff coffee. Not in a drinking mood.

biddybid73 · 31/12/2018 19:48

Cava with creme de cassis!

TechnicalSergeantGarp · 31/12/2018 19:53

Champagne (Christmas present) with cherries and stemless flutes. It's all about nice glasses here.

Owlettele · 31/12/2018 19:54

SagelyNodding · 31/12/2018 19:54

DogMamma · 31/12/2018 19:55

Cheesymonster · 31/12/2018 19:56

Sol with a lime wedge. Prosecco for later but I doubt I’ll stay awake!

pineapplebryanbrown · 31/12/2018 19:56
