I sense a new hit at the Rathbun family Christmas party, and will be sure all toast you when snacking. Valerie, that’s a genius idea (as I would expect from you).

Why not turn those extra onions into a cocktail snack to accompany other cocktails? A classic Venetian cichetto is a cocktail onion, an anchovy, and a pickled pepperoncino nestled together on a toothpick. A platter of these was a big hit at Thanksgiving this year, to accompany the pre-dinner cider martinis and Prosecco. You can also leave off the anchovy and just do the onion-pepperoncino combo.

You could write a post a day about the Gibson and I would read and re-read each one. Is there a finer drink? No, there is not. Bless your pea-pickin’ heart.

A Gibson is, obviously the standard, but the most creative recipe I found was for what some guys named the "Russian Gringo Cocktail" (link below) consisting of tequila, vodka, lime, and cocktail onions. Not sure if I'm brave enough to try it... but, hey, ya never know! http://www.copykat.com/2009/05/14/russian-gringo-cocktail-a-cocktail-created-by-ukranian-and-spanish-friends/ So, I took to you challenge of asking people to find another recipe requiring cocktail onions.
