10 Holiday Cocktails That Will Get You On The Polar Express To Tipsy-Town

The holiday season is arguably the most stressful time of the year. Most of us forget that it is meant to be enjoyable too!

As a reminder for all of us, the holidays exist for only one real reason. Not to stress us out, but for us to celebrate and commemorate memories with family and friends.

They're also a fantastic excuse to get drunk! Which is why I compiled a list of some of the most unique and tasty holiday cocktails for you to enjoy, ones that are for sure to get you on the train to tipsy-town.

1. Sugared Cranberry Ginger Mimosa

All you need is cranberry juice, ginger beer and champagne. Garnish it with some sugared cranberries if you desire, but this drink is a festive cocktail you're sure to enjoy all winter long!

2. Winter Sangria

Sangria is usually a hit or miss for me, and while I tend to lean towards white sangrias, this one just screams holiday cheer and I'm so excited to make it! The official list of ingredients includes:

One bottle of sweet red wine, one bottle of sparkling cran-apple cider, two clementines, two granny smith apples (cored and diced), a half-cup of pomegranate arils and one cup cranberries sliced in half. Add rosemary as a garnish!

3. Pomegranate Rosemary Spritzer 

If you want a fizzy, fresh and fruity drink that is perfect for the holidays, this is for you!

4. Jingle Juice

Who needs cheap, frat-party jungle juice when you can make a fresh, tropical blend for your annual holiday party? This one is a little time consuming, but worthwhile!

5. Raspberry Cream Mimosas

I f*ckin love raspberries and I love champagne, so you bet I'm pumped to make this for the holiday season. One batch of this serves about four people (all for me???).

6. 'Jack Frost' Winter Cocktail

Apparently, this is supposed to be the holiday version of a piña colada, so if you like those you're guaranteed to like this too!

Coconut, pineapple juice, Blue Curacao, vodka (or rum)... YUM!

7. Kahlua Hot Chocolate

Yes, you read that right. A spiked hot chocolate to get through the long, winter months! You'll never be able to drink regular hot chocolate again.

8. Rumchata Eggnog

What would a holiday cocktail listicle be without an eggnog recipe? This is an easy, four-step recipe that might take 20 minutes max.

9. Candy Cane Shooters

On the night I celebrated my 21st birthday, I took a vodka shot that honestly tasted like mint mouthwash. Personally, I love anything mint and who is going to complain about their breath tasting a little bit more fresh?

This shot includes peppermint chocolate truffle, white chocolate liquor and some half-and-half.

10. Moscow Mules

If you're not too adventurous and just want something simple for the holidays, I recommend a Moscow Mule! Traditionally made with vodka, lime juice and ginger beer, this classic cocktail is surely going to be a hit at your holiday celebrations. And you get to drink them out of a pretty copper mug, how aesthetically pleasing is that?

Happy holidays! Remember to drink responsibly and NEVER, EVER drink and drive!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
