The holiday season is upon us and if you’re planning drinks for your Christmas party, Tieghan Gerard is here to help you out. She’s constantly sharing recipes for festive cocktails on her food blog Half-Baked Harvest and here are a few that will get you into a jolly mood.
Frosted Spicy Ginger Moscow Mule
Made with vodka, ginger beer, and lime juice, Moscow mule is one of the most iconic cocktails you could serve this holiday season, and Gerard made it even more festive by adding some sugared cranberries to the mix.
Christmas Old Fashioned
Made with whiskey, bitters, and muddled sugar, the old fashion is never going out of style. You can make it more festive by adding some maple syrup, ginger beer, and cinnamon sticks to the mix.
Frosted Mistletoe Margarita
You’ll find many recipes for margaritas on Gerard’s blog. These ones are made with a blend of fresh winter citrus, cranberry juice, orange liquor, and tequila, in addition to being topped with ice, fresh rosemary, and cranberries.
Cinnamon Bourbon Fizz
Cinnamon bourbon fizz is Gerard’s own creation and she describes it as the perfect cozy winter cocktail. In addition to warming bourbon and cinnamon honey syrup, you’ll also need some Aperol, sparkling water, lemon juice, and bitters to make it.
