Yungueno (Bolivian Cocktail)

Adapted from BoliviaWeb and Time/Life Foods of the World. You can add less sugar if you wish. “Yungueno” means “from the Yungas,” which is a forested area on the Eastern slopes of the Andes. I’ve scaled this down to make fewer servings.

My Secret Brandy Truffles

Okay so they’re not a secret anymore. I hesitated to publish this recipe, but it’s just too good not to share. If you don’t like Brandy, I suppose dark rum, Grand Marnier, or Bourbon would be good, too.

Christmas Plum Pudding

We love Christmas pudding. I make mine in October, and give many away as gifts. I make several sizes, and try to keep about 3 for us-one for Christmas, another for New Year, and the last for around Easter. I find it very satisfying to make these, though I can hardly wait to eat the first one! This recipe is a combination of 2 favourites and works well. If you don’t want to use the stout and brandy, use orange juice as one of the recipes suggested-I think the stout and brandy give the recipe depth of flavour.
