It's kind of like Bailey's on ice but a little spicier. Good to sip slowly... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggest-a-holiday-cocktail#post-2397075 Tue, 22 Dec 2015 13:06:12 +0000 birdofafeather 2397075@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lamariniere: for shame! ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggest-a-holiday-cocktail#post-2397059 Tue, 22 Dec 2015 12:56:35 +0000 IRunForFun 2397059@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>White chocolate peppermint martini! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggest-a-holiday-cocktail#post-2397049 Tue, 22 Dec 2015 12:52:13 +0000 lamariniere 2397049@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: hehe.

I need make some this week!

Or, after dinner we always do White Russians (you could make with egg nog to make it more festive.) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggest-a-holiday-cocktail#post-2396627 Tue, 22 Dec 2015 09:20:59 +0000 blackbird 2396627@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think you can go wrong with a classic french 75! They are SO GOOD. Gin, champagne, sugar syrup, and lemon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggest-a-holiday-cocktail#post-2396467 Tue, 22 Dec 2015 03:19:53 +0000 lamariniere 2396467@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks everyone!

No real recipe, just include things like apples, cranberries, pomegranate seeds and pears since they're in season. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggest-a-holiday-cocktail#post-2395534 Mon, 21 Dec 2015 10:16:45 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 2395534@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you want a hot cocktail, we love mulled cider with Fireball whiskey and cinnamon sticks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggest-a-holiday-cocktail#post-2395505 Mon, 21 Dec 2015 09:47:49 +0000 peaches1038 2395505@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm going to try an apple cider "mimosa". It's just cider and champagne </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggest-a-holiday-cocktail#post-2395499 Mon, 21 Dec 2015 09:37:05 +0000 regberadaisy 2395499@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lamariniere: I saw Bobby Flay make this cranberry orange cocktail this weekend! He muddled fresh cranberries with orange peel/zest, simple syrup and tequila. He added fresh whole cranberries to the cocktail, it was very festive! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggest-a-holiday-cocktail#post-2395491 Mon, 21 Dec 2015 09:33:06 +0000 LBee 2395491@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I saw this one a few years ago and still love it! It's really easy to make and I love that you can do it in bulk: </p> <p><a href="http://www.northcarolinacharm.com/2013/01/pomegranate-champagne-punch.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.northcarolinacharm.com/2013/01/pomegranate-champagne-punch.html</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggest-a-holiday-cocktail#post-2395477 Mon, 21 Dec 2015 09:26:36 +0000 erinbaderin 2395477@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We always have mimosas, with good champagne and fresh orange juice. Otherwise, I'd suggest something with cranberry juice, and use frozen cranberries as ice. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggest-a-holiday-cocktail#post-2395472 Mon, 21 Dec 2015 09:21:19 +0000 lamariniere 2395472@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are in charge of Christmas day cocktails.
