Absolutely awesome for entertaining! This will be well receive by some of the training division at the San Onofri Nuclear Generating Station in San Clemente, CA. I work there on contract but my husband is full time. It is going in on monday for everyone to sample. I will make it with a non-alcoholic Almond flavor.
