Every year we get these little liquors and I understand that ppl don't want to buy the expensive brands if they are giving so many ppl but I love liquor and do but enjoy these at all. Mostly it goes into the garbage. It got me wondering if I'm just spoiled and can only enjoy a good liquor. So my question is "do you drink it or trash it?"

I use them for baking. the amaretto bundt base adapting it to whatever flavor liqueur it is. If it's coffee or chocolate based, a chocolate pudding mix

I get so excited when I get good cute liquor I have a mini collection I pass them along. They don't spoil like grape juice. So I save them they usually are in 3-5 main colors brown/black, gold. Clear/white, sometimes red-blue. If it's a realy delicious one I'll
drink it or use it in a cake recipe.

I used to save it for years and eventually gave them all to my cleaning lady.

Rosebud, spirit of solomon and the smirnoff weird flavored vodka (strawberry/orange vodka anyone? ) are a no go here. May save them to give next year;) From what I got this year- Coco dejava, tomintoul, and regular vodka will get used. Nicer bottles get saved for a mini collection.

We seldom get such things. If we received many, I'd regift, immediately or the following year, assuming dh didn't consume them in the interim. I don't do themes for MM so anything goes. If we received something I liked, I'd pour it over ice cream or use it in a recipe.

DH holds that they're chometz and we don't sell chometz over pesach, so I drink up whatever I like usually the chocolate or coffee flavored ones and the rest get dumped.

I do, when I’m not pregnant….they’re perfect for cocktails and mixes.

I'll take them all! I use them sometimes when I make kiddush myself. I'd rather drink that than a full cup of grape juice. Or I'd use it for next years mishloach manos.

Yes I'm very much for real. DH hardly drinks so the only vodka or liquor we ever have in the house is what we get for MM.

Chocolate and coffee liqueurs - even the heimish bad ones - go great with a cold glass of milk, add some ice cubes, mix, enjoy!
The other flavored liquors are great with juice or soda depending on the flavor. Also, with ice or nothing.
Vodka and scotch, well, they are gone on purim day before sunset…
