What We’ve Been Up To…
Every holiday celebration needs a fabulously festive signature cocktail, and we’ve gathered more than a few recipes that are guaranteed to get the party started (and keep it going well into the evening):
Try greeting guests with a cup of piping hot mulled wine to warm them up as they step in from the cold. Or opt for this potent punch, which needs at least a few days to steep and calls for four different spirits; it’s one of the South’s best-kept secrets. For something fruity and seasonal, this trio of apple-cider cocktails is certain to please. Still looking for more ideas? A pick from this collection of punch recipes should do the trick.
