Whether you’re hosting Friendsgiving or throwing a holiday party for your co-workers, every good gathering needs good cocktails. Winter cocktails are so much fun to make because you can play around with temperature and different ingredients that you may not use in your daily cocktails, like more savory ingredients. If you are stuck on what to mix up this year, here are some cocktails inspiration.
Cranberry Cider
Cranberries are the ultimate holiday ingredient, so why not make it into a cocktail! Boil cranberries with sugar and water to make the juice, strain, and combine in a bowl with bubbly wine, whiskey or bourbon, orange slices, star anise, and cinnamon sticks. Serve with extra cranberries in the bowl and you have the perfect holiday drinks.

Warm Sangria
The best part about this cocktail is that you can make it in your slow cooker! Pour in a bottle of red wine, a bottle of wine, 1 cup of brandy, 1 cup of simple syrup, 1 sliced orange, 4 cinnamon sticks, and 2 cups of your favorite frozen fruit. Cook it on high for 1 hour and then keep it on warm while you serve. You can even serve the sangria right out of the slow cooker so you don’t have to waste a bowl!
