Holiday Season Cocktails

I wanted to do two cocktails for this upcoming cold ass season we're about to take on.

*** Reminder, I am NOT nor have I ever been a bartender, mixologist or whatever you call a booze sammelier. I just like a good drank. Here are the ingredients for two drinks that will wow your guests, family or friends. I've also posted an IGTV for a play by play if you'd care to have a virtual ladies night and make them along side me.

Drink one: Caramel Apple Cider Sangria

Servings: one Pitcher

You'll need:

-3-4 Apples

-64 oz Apple Cider

-1 bottle White Wine ( I went with a dry white so it wasn't as sweet)

- 10-20 oz Caramel Vodka (roughly 1/2 a fifth)

-Cinnamon Sticks

*** for the rim of your cup

-Cinnamon

-Sugar

Drink Two: Cranberry MANmossa

(by the glass)

You'll need:

- 1 shot Vodka

- 2 large squirts Lime Juice

- 2 Tbsp Homemade Cranberry

- fill remainder of glass with Champagne

Making your own Cranberry "sauce" is super simple.

24 oz cranberries washed and drained, add to 2 cups of apple juice, bring to a boil and wait for cranberries to start popping open. Then add 1 Cup maple syrup and 1 Cup sugar, mix well and let simmer for 20 minutes.

You now have a homemade cranberry simple syrup!

XOXO + Happy Holidays,
