Take your holiday hosting up a notch! Since we touched on the subject of bar carts, I thought I would leave you with some soul warming cocktails! Here are a few drinks I discovered recently, they are so easy and you’ll only need a few seasonal ingredients.
Poinsettia Cocktail is just a stunning little Christmas cocktail with only a few simple ingredients but is sure to be a crowd pleaser!If you like a champagne that’s dressed up for the holidays, you’ll love this one! A little cranberry and some orange liquor and you’ve got a beautiful drink in your hand. Get cozy and enjoy!!
Hot Buttered Rum Batter is a winner for warming your loved ones soul! This is absolutely rich and decadent, I mean it has butter – how can you go wrong!?! Plus, if you’re like me you can make this ahead of time, best part is you can store it in the freezer for up to three months!!!
The Maple Perfect Manhattan A slightly sweet twist on the traditional Manhattan, a spoonful of maple syrup to sweeten the mix of rye whiskey and dry vermouth.
Bourbon Negroni Jerry loves a Negroni, so I found this recipe for him! This recipe is a classic Campari-based Negroni with a sophisticated update by adding a hint of vanilla bean.
Harvest Margarita Tequila is my drink of choice. So when I found this by Bobby Flay I was like “YAYASSSS!!!! Just Mix it and put it in pitchers before your guests arrive so you don’t have to worry about being on drink duty the whole evening.
I also like to make “punches”, people can help themselves and you can double batch it so there’s always more and you’re not scrambling while trying to do everything else! Here’s an easy and delicious one!
Toasted Cider This apple and pumpkin-flavored cider complements any Thanksgiving meal, with or without alcohol. Serve hot in heatproof mugs (with a shot of spiced rum).
Cheers!
