Pick up some cheap vodka from the Broadway liquor store and infuse it with some hot peppers. (This is a good recipe.) Once it is done infusing, strain it and pour back into the same bottle or a fancy one you might pick up from one of the many import stores on the hill.
This takes a little prep work, but there is still time to make a few batches of these before Christmas. At the very least, it would be ready for New Years.
Alternative gifts from the liquor store:
- Baileys wtih a bag of Vivace coffee
- Peppermint schapps and hot chocolate mix
- Airplane bottles of vodka for the stockings!
