10 Beautiful Holiday Cocktails

My favorite part of Holiday party planning is the signature cocktail. What garnish will I make, how will it pair with the appetizers or desserts? Will it be a cozy, creamy cocktail, or a sparkly, festive one?

The ultimate goal is to hear “Oh, I’ll have another one of those” from my guests, and every single one of these require a batch for multiple rounds. Help yourself to my most stunning (and delicious!) holiday cocktails below!
