Holiday Cocktails

It's the holidays...time to whip up some feastive goodies, and serve some holiday inspired drinks!

While entertaining this year, reduce the costs of serving alcohol by offering signature cocktails. Give your guests 2  options, and use the same base alcohol (like rum or vodka) for both of them. Also, serve domestic beer and wine.

If you really want to limit your costs, ask guests to BYOB (Bring Your Own Booze) and just offer your signature cocktails.

You can choose your signature cocktails either by the name - like a Christmas Cosmo, or Peppermint Stick, or simply choose them by colour - like Sour Appletini or Pomegranate Martini. There are plenty of cocktail recipes on the web, and also premade drinks can be found at the LCBO if you didnt want to shake or stir your own.

Match your drinks with your colour or theme of your gathering, and be sure to offer virgin drinks for those that are DD or under age. You want everyone to be able to celebrate the wonders of the season with you.

If you didn't want to serve alcohol at all, there are plenty of other options like holiday eggnog, mint hot chocolate and ciders.

Be sure to have fun this holiday season, but please drink responsibly. Don't drink and drive.

Cheers!
