There is no better way to ring in the season than with a few specialty cocktails specific to each upcoming celebration.
Keep these up your sleeve for your next party, and have the ingredients on hand in the pantry, to serve to last minute guests.
Christmas: The Snowball
1 oz. Advocaat
5 oz. lemonade chilled
Ice cubes and a slice of lemon
Directions: Place ice cubes in highball glass(es) and pour the Advocaat, then the chilled lemonade to fill the glass(es). Serve garnished with a candy cane or slice of lemon.
New Year’s Eve: Cranberry Margarita
1 1/2 oz. tequila
1 oz. Rose’s lime juice
1 1/2 oz. Triple Sec
1 1/2 oz. sweet and sour mix
2 oz. cranberry juice
Add all ingredients into blender with ice. Blend until smooth.
Thread fresh cranberries onto a skewer (metal or wood works well) and garnish glass for a festive touch.
New Year’s Day: Hangover Milkshake
One of the quickest ways to cure a hangover is to make a banana milkshake sweetened with honey. The banana helps calm the stomach, and the honey builds up the depleted blood sugar levels. The milk soothes the stomach and rehydrates your system. Bananas are also rich in the important electrolytes, magnesium and potassium, which are severely depleted during heavy drinking.
Mix 1 banana with 1 cup ice, 1 cup milk and 1 tablespoon honey.
