SnowGlobe---> (wintergreen schnapps)

[AAP]

Someone gave me this the other night. It is a schnapps that actually comes in a bottle shaped like a snow globe. On the inside is a little glass sculpture (molded into the bottom of the bottle) of a couple dashing down a snowy hillside on a sled.

And get this. When you shake it... little flakes of wintergreen float around the inside. You know how Gold Schlanger has those gold flakes on the inside, well this has white wintergreen flakes that make it look just like a snowglobe.

Anyone heard of this? I looked for it online but couldn't find it. I am going to attempt to make a WinterGreen Martini later.

I was thinking 2 parts Grey Goose, 1 part Snowglobe and maybe a dash of grand mariner (or a hint of lime) Line the bottom of the glass and the rim with a touch of Godiva White Chocolate Liquor.

Many possiblities. I am going to fetch a neighbor to help me decide which is best. Of course, the lout will be like "needs more tequila" . When I tell him there is no tequila in it. He will be like "then add some".

thats prettys sweet...if I wasn't a recovering alcoholic I would get a bottle myself!

Sounds cool. I had a bottle of Royal Chambord years ago. It had no flakes inside since it is a dark color. The bottle was round and trimmed with wrought gold plastic to make it look like a crown. The cap was crown shaped as well.

Sounds good, but I think calling it a martini would be a bit of a stretch, come up with a new name.

UPDATE---

All variations that I tried ended up tasting like shit. Don't get this. It tastes like wintergreen Cholraseptic no matter what you mix in with it.

Ugggh!

Save it for parties. Some people like punishment.

I used to sell something similar. For the life of me, I can't fucking remember what it was called. It wasn't shaped like a snowglobe though, but it had the white shit inside it.

It was made by Hiram Walker though. That leads me to believe that it's crap. I dunno though.
