It will be fine.

Dh dh cannot drink any form of alcohol, or have it uncooked in food....say in a sherrt trile as it could kill him. His consultant told me that well cooked alcohol in food is fine. The alcohol boils off

It's fine, my baby and toddler book has recipes with alcohol, as long as they're cooked the taste remains but not the alcohol content. So def ok to give the children.

alcohol boils at a much lower temp than water. pretty much any cooking gets rid of it.

or else my lot are really really good at holding their drink - we bung wine in everything
