DRINK ESSENTIALS: CHRISTMAS COSMOPOLITAN



Drink Essentials: Christmas Cosmopolitan image

I call this a cosmopolitan because it does have the elements of that classic drink. However, it is just a great holiday drink, so call it what you wish. Served them last night, while watching How the Grinch Stole Christmas... the original. So, you ready... Let's get into the kitchen.

THE DRINK

4 oz triple sec
3 Tbsp lime juice, freshly squeezed

From thespruceeats.com
  • Merry Chistmas Cocktail. Spread the Christmas cheer with a round of these simple and refreshing highballs. The appropriately named, "Merry Christmas cocktail" features Plymouth Gin and cranberry juice with a little sparkle.
  • Santa's Whiskey Flip. Cinnamon is a favorite flavor of the winter season and it's fantastic when infused into a great bourbon. Making cinnamon whiskey at home is very simple and it's the ideal base for a new take on an old favorite.
  • Spiced Silver Bell. Tequila may not be the first liquor of choice for holiday cocktails but it's fitting in a recipe like the spiced silver bell. Here, a luscious silver tequila is paired with a unique cranberry spiced syrup that you'll find a use for in other drinks.
  • Christmas Margarita. Holding nothing back, this Christmas margarita is sure to delight any tequila lover's fancy with its layers of flavor. It begins with the typical margarita base of tequila, lime, and orange liqueur.
  • Grinch. Go green with this cocktail named for Dr. Seuss' classic holiday character. The Grinch is a simple Midori sour and, because each of the ingredients should already be in your bar, it is perfect for last-minute entertaining.
  • Easy Rum Eggnog. Sometimes, you just want a classic. This rum eggnog has just five ingredients: rum, port wine, simple syrup (easy to make with sugar and water), an egg, and nutmeg.
