Kecipes l<or Toast The Holiday Cheer Put Extra Punch In Season -Jo toast the holiday sea son this year, there's a new generation of nogs and gloggs and slings and toddies. The traditional drinks have been updated and Americanized to suit the tempo of the 80s. Early Saxons may have spent days grinding spices and balancing flavors for their wassail bowls, but today's lifestyles will not stand still for such time consuming preparations. Entertaining has become less formal and hospitality often requires haste. The ideal solution is something that's already in the cup board. Chances are, that “some thing” is canned condensed soup, which is a wonderful beginning for any number of festive drinks. Who would guess that cream of chicken soup is the basis of a creamy smooth eggnog? Or that there’s condensed beef broth in that toddlin' toddy? For unexpected guests on a frosty night or an in vited party of friends, there are holiday drinks for every occasion. Some are regally splendid served in a crystal punch bowl and flecked with spicy nutmeg. Others are a comfort to hold in hot mugs that warm the hands and cheer the heart. Eggnog Elegante is a forthy, rich-tasting eggnog that begins in an electric blender with condensed cream of chicken soup, light cream, egg yolks and vanilla. The liquor to add, if desired, is rum. Beaten egg whites are folded into the mixture before chilling and serving - preferably in a punch bowl. Island Holiday Delight is a variation of the popular Pina Colada, made with condensed cream of chick en soup, pineapple and coconut. Combined with ice cubes in an electric blend er. it is smooth, frothy and refreshingly tasty. Light rum can be stirred in after blending. Great Glogg gets its taste from orange juice and its matching color from con densed Cheddar cheese soup. It is refreshingly served hot in a clear glass mug, with or without an orange-flavored liqueur. Tim and Jerry combines rum and brandy with con densed Cheddar cheese soup, eggs, sguar and a touch of vanilla. The batter and rum-brandy mixture are stirred into cups and boiling water is added for a new version of the Tom and Jerry. Honey of a Toddy has bracing condensed beef broth, honey and citrus garnish. It is a satisfying hot drink that can be made Bracing hot drinks and soothing chilled ones for holiday entertaining have a condensed soup base. From foreground moving clockwise they are: Honey of a Toddy, Great Glogg, Island Holiday Delight, Eggnog Elegante and Tim and Jerry. in a hurry, with spirits, if desired. Use that same “some thing" in the cupboard to make a dip elegant enough to be served at the fanciest holiday gatherings, but easy enough to be put together in minutes. Chili Shrimp Dip gets off to a fast start with canned condensed cream of shrimp soup. Chili sauce and Worcestershire add a double spark of flavor.
