  • Shrimp with tequila, lime, and cilantro on baguette slices (JereMei)
  • Baby brussels sprouts with brandy, cream, and bacon (JereMei)
  • Seared scallops with a creamy lemon and vodka sauce (FerGormans)
  • Spicy rum-glazed chicken wings (Sandra)
  • Bourbon and maple syrup mashed sweet potatoes (JereMei's 4th dish!)
  • Sake-glazed chicken meat balls (Ayako)
  • Penne a la vodka with mushrooms (McMompsons)

A boozy good time was had by all (except for James...we missed you!)!
