Poll question: Peppermint Schnapps. Yea or Nay?
I've never tried it before and I just cracked open a bottle for tonight. Smells pretty good.

How is the best way to have it? On ice?

1. It's okay, I like cinamon schnapps better :)
I always just put it in the freezer :).

11. But as you're getting drunk...your breath still smells minty fresh!
But I know what you mean. It's ok...not my favorite type of alcohol.

27. When you're drunk, breath aroma slides way down the scale.

28. Most bartenders would object to that.
At least spit it back into the glass.

4.  I LOVE Peach Schnapps, but I don't do Peppermint!
I have to hide the Peach! I tend to drink WAY too much!!!

9. My thoughts exactly
It's a warmer-upper

Snowshoe:
3 parts Wild Turkey
1 part Peppermint schnapps.

31. That gets my vote, too
Enough Schnapps to dissolve the hot chocolate mix, and the rest, hot milk :)

16. Move forward..
... not backward. Schnapps is nothing but syrup and everclear. :)

It is probably ok for mixing drinks...

19. Thank you.
Thank you for reminding me of one of the worst mornings-after I've had in my life.

A lesson to you all: If you gotta get gooned, and you can get gooned on only one thing, make damn sure it's not Peppermint Schnapps!

23. It's frightening how easily this stuff goes down
I can definitely see how people get so messed up drinking this.

24. It makes a nice after dinner aperitif.
It kind of cleanses the palate and settles the stomach. Cold is necessary, ice or not.:shrug: But it's not anything you'd want to drink in any quantity.:D

32. It's best served chilled (keep it in the freezer)
Never over ice as it gets too watered down.

34. Only one use for it
Pour just a bit in your hot chocolate.
