Here's a reason to get a real Christmas tree: You can make a cocktail out of it! The new book How to Eat Your Christmas Tree includes dozens of recipes for cooking with the needles from firs, spruces and pines. Author Julia Georgallis suggests using them for curing fish, infusing ice cream, brewing tea and making a cordial for these Christmas Tree Sours. Just be sure to triple-check your tree type: Certain varieties like cedars and cypresses aren't edible. - Francesca Cocchi, Food Network Magazine
