This is the exact opposite of how we should be bidding adieu to the Holiday. Instead, as vivacious, young adults we should be spending the little time we have at home appropriately. Here are 7 delicious ways to channel that leftover cheer into something your family and friends can enjoy.Â
A shot that is perfect for the early starter or the festive holiday party crowd. Caution: generous consumption of Baileys should probably come after the fire and burner steps.Â
This cocktail is the perfect alcoholic twist on the beloved Starbucks peppermint mocha coffee beverage. Not to mention it will give you just the swift kick in the stockings you need to get your yuletide on.Â
This wintery concoction proves that Margarita Monday is not
seasonally discriminatory. Move over vodka we are bringing in the big guns.Â
4)Â Mistletoe Mojito
This super easy pomegranate Popsugar recipe is as pretty as it is tangy. Who are we to deny ourselves a healthy dose of antioxidants? I say you better make sure you go back for seconds.Â
5)Â Winter Delight
Nothing warms the soul – or the lips- like a glass of bourbon dressed for the festivities. AskMen has ingeniously published a hard cider recipe that won’t make your teeth feel like they are rotting out of your holly jolly head.Â
The surprise you ask? Besides the disorientation of waking up in nothing but themed holiday socks without the slightest idea of where you are, this seasonal recipe also puts a twist on a traditional favorite with hints of caramel and cider. What screams Feliz Navidad louder than mixing your alcohols?Â
7)Â The 24 Carat Champagne Cocktail
If you are really feeling like a holiday baller garnish your drink with some gold stars, and pour some Goldschläger. Fill the rest of your flute with champagne and a few raspberries for class. Don't forget to stick that pinky out.
Happy New Years, and Merry Drinkmas you filthy animals!
