Whether you’re hosting a holiday party or looking to indulge in a cozy night in, Payless Liquors has a range of Christmas-themed cocktails that will make your festivities all the more merry and bright. In this blog, we will explore some of their best recipes and share tips on how to create the ultimate holiday drink experience.

Classic Eggnog

First up, we have the classic eggnog – a staple of the holiday season. You can enjoy eggnog straight up or with a twist. For a traditional take on this timeless drink, mix some cognac, rum, and brandy with eggnog, garnished with a sprinkle of nutmeg. For a modern twist, try adding a splash of coffee liqueur or hazelnut syrup to your eggnog, and top it off with a few Ferrero Rocher chocolates. Serve in a beautifully frosted glass for a holiday-perfect presentation.

Cranberry Martini

If you’re looking for a lighter alternative to eggnog, why not try a Christmas martini? There are a lot of  recipes that range from fruity to spicy, but a fan-favorite is the Cranberry Martini. All you need is Vodka, Triple Sec, lime juice, and cranberry juice for a pop of festive color. Garnish with a sprig of rosemary and a few cranberries, and serve in a chilled glass. Trust us; your guests will be impressed.

Hot Buttered Rum

For a cozy night in, you can’t go wrong with a warm spiced drink. The Hot Buttered Rum is a classic, made with a shot of rum, boiling water, sugar, and butter, finished off with a hint of cinnamon and nutmeg. For a creative twist, try a Hot Spiced Cider, made with Applejack brandy, spiced cider, orange slices, and cinnamon sticks. For an extra holiday touch, serve in a festive mug with a cute reindeer stirrer!

Chocolate Peppermint Martini

Last but not least, we have the dessert cocktails, perfect for a post-dinner treat. There are a range of recipes available, but the Chocolate Peppermint Martini takes the cake. Combine vodka, creme de cacao, and peppermint schnapps in a shaker with ice, and pour into a chocolate-rimmed glass. Top off with whipped cream and crushed candy cane, and voila – a festive and decadent drink that will make your holiday season all the sweeter.
