Easy drinks for entertaining at home this holiday season

Written By Type A Curated - Kiki and Amanda

2023’s holiday season is quickly approaching! I love making super-simple but festive drinks when hosting, whether it be for a big cooking day or before heading to a Christmassy evening out.

Cranberry Mojitos

  • 1oz cranberry simple syrup

  • 2oz rum

  • 1/2oz lime juice

  • Club soda

  • Mint

    In a glass, muddle a few mint leaves with the lime juice. Add rum and syrup. Fill glass with ice and top with club soda. Garnish with cranberries and mint.

    Make simple syrup by combining 1c cranberries, 1c sugar, 1c water on the stove. Stir frequently until slight bubbles begin to rise. Let cool completely before straining out berries.

BYO Gin & Tonic

Set out a build-your-own G&T bar. This is a great and super-flexible option, plus, you get to make stunning arrangements like this one! Include:

  • Gins (have at least a couple, like Hendricks and Citadelle)

  • Tonics (we love Fevertree)

  • Fresh citrus

  • Herbs

  • Flowers

  • Lots of ice
