Christmas Cocktails

The holiday cocktail mixes at Williams Sonoma typically incorporate seasonal flavors, like cinnamon, pomegranate and ginger. While they're meant to be served cold, these seasonal notes give the drinks a comforting, wintry feel that's perfect for Christmas parties. Some of the delicious flavor combinations available include pomegranate blueberry, cranberry pomegranate and ginger lime. They come premixed in bottles, ready to be shaken with crushed ice and an ounce or two of liquor, like vodka, rum, tequila, whiskey or gin. You can also shake with ice and sparkling water to create winter mocktails.

Mulled wine (also known as spiced wine) is another traditional winter beverage that your guests are sure to love. Simply simmer Williams Sonoma mulling spices and red wine in a saucepan for about twenty minutes, then serve hot. The mulling spice blend of cinnamon, cloves, allspice berries and orange peels adds incredible flavor to the wine and fills your kitchen with a spicy, comforting aroma that smells like Christmas. You can also simmer with apple cider to create a non-alcoholic drink, or with apple cider and rum or brandy.
