holiday a-list cocktails

Tis the season for fireplaces, wrapping presents, and holiday cocktails. I wanted to share with you our favorite cocktails at the Livingood household. Perfect during the daytime, while prepping dinner, celebrating the little things and of course, the cozy night cap!!

HOT TODDY RECIPE

Serves 2

Let’s warm up with some hot toddies! They could not be easier to make. For this classic cocktail, you’ll just need hot water, whiskey, honey, and lemon. These are light and hydrating rather than overwhelmingly sweet. My all time favorite holiday night cap.

12-16 oz water, divided

1.5 oz whiskey of choice for each drink

2-3 tsp agave or raw honey

2-3 tsp fresh lemon

dash of cinnamon

While your water is boiling, combine the left over ingredients into your stainless steal mug (keeps your drink hot longer). Add hot water then stir fully combine honey, cinnamon and whiskey.

Cranberry Mimosa

Top your champagne flute 3/4 the way of chilled champagne.

Add a splash of cranberry juice (not the cocktail).

Add a sprig of rosemary if you're hosting brunch or just to feel extra fancy!

Paleo Peppermint Hot Chocolate

I love using four sigmatic's reishi hot cocao blend.

Start by warming up your favorite nut milk up in a saucepan.

In your blender, add the reishi hot chocolate packet, one scoop of collagen, a dash of cinnamon, your favorite vodka, and 1-2 drops of digest safe peppermint oil to your mix.

Add your nut milk and blend! YUM!

Pomegranate Mint Spritzer

I use this pomegranate juice + their pomegranates too.

Place 1 tsp pomegranates in the bottom of your champagne flute. 

Fill flute 1/2 + 1/2 juice + champagne

Garnish with mint leaves

Enjoy your cocktals!
