The Christmas holiday season is the perfect time to gather with friends and enjoy a drink or two. We tend to favor drinks that immediately put us in the holiday spirit. Our list of Christmas cocktail favorites features beverages that we rarely indulge in outside of the season. These drinks feel more special and festive when crafted, poured, and sipped amidst holiday decorations and a chill in the air.
This collection includes both hot and cold options, and many can be served in a punchbowl. Almost all of these drinks can be batched for easy serving. (See our story on batching cocktails for success).
Feel free to serve these in festive, holiday-themed glasses, and as always, drink responsibly, since many of these drinks go down easily.
