This week, for #SundaySupper we are sharing recipes for homemade gifts to give to family and friends for the holidays. I LOVE this theme and I cannot wait to read all the recipes that my fellow bloggers will share. I am always on the lookout for new ideas. Like every year, this year too I am going to gift some friends a few home-made goodies. I will share all the recipes in the next few days, but today I would like to start with this delicious Creamy Coconut Liqueur. I strongly believe that all Christmas hampers should have a bottle of home-made liqueur. It tastes amazing and you can be as creative (or as traditional) as you like. This recipe is very easy and quick to make and you can prepare it a few days in advance, which is a plus during the holiday season, when time seems to literally fly! Thanks Renee of Magnolia Days for being a wonderful host!

I’ve never had coconut liqueur but I’m SURE I’m going to love it. 🙂
Love the idea of a Christmas hamper. The basket is such a personalized expression of care…And everyone will know how thoughtful you are once they sip this luscious looking coconut liqueur, Manu. P.s. My mind is racing to see how I can incorporate your yummy drink into a cake or frosting or both!
