The ladies of Bad And Boozy Podcast acknowledge that everyone celebrates Christmas.  That doesn’t meant that everyone can’t enjoy a good cocktail. The cocktail of choice for Day 6 of Drinkmas The Cutzpah. Chutzpah is a laddish word that has multiple meanings, one of which being audacity. And who has the audacity to use Manischevitz in a cocktail?  These chicks do!

Manischevitz is a red grape wine that is produced in the State of New York. It is a kosher wine that is popular with the Jewish, Caribbean, and Auntie communities. It is sweet wine typically served as a desert wine but we have the chutzpah to make a cocktail with it. The recipe for this grape flavored goodness can be found here but we’ve listed it below for your convenience:
