Holiday cocktails are festive drinks often enjoyed during celebrations like Christmas, New Year's Eve, and Thanksgiving. These beverages typically feature seasonal flavors, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and peppermint, and can be served hot or cold. Popular choices include eggnog, mulled wine, and spiked cider, which add a warm, cozy touch to gatherings. Many holiday cocktails can be easily made at home using simple ingredients. Bartenders and home mixologists often experiment with creative combinations, incorporating spirits like vodka, rum, or whiskey. Garnishes such as fresh fruit, herbs, or candy canes enhance the visual appeal and flavor, making these drinks a delightful addition to any holiday celebration.
