In Jamaica they serve sorrel juice at Christmas. Sorrel is a weird red fruit that looks like something out of Dr. Seuss, and tastes kind of like hibiscus. (In that it's red flavored.) It's light, and refreshing and awesome with ginger, and I really, really miss it.

Eggnog, especially for soy milk. I may be alone on this one, but I love it and it is just so sad that you can only buy eggnog soy milk one time a year. I get my eggnog soy milk at whole foods, by the way. Does that help my chances at getting picked? ;)
