Ten Festive Cocktail Recipes

The holidays are, without a doubt, one of the best times of the year for sampling a new cocktail recipe. From hosting holiday soirees to settling in for a cozy night by the fire, there really are so many excuses to end the day early and sip on something festive. This cocktail is one of my personal favorites for Christmas brunch. I thought it would be fun to round up a list of ten more unique cocktail recipes to try this year, with a little something for everyone! Here’s what we found:
