Blogmas Day 19 - 3 Simple Christmas Cocktails

There's no better time of year as an excuse to be creative and festive with different drink ideas, here’s a couple that I’ve come up with for the festive season!


Pink Gin Spritz
Everyone's obsessed with Pink Gin at the moment (including me) and this cocktail is perfect for over Christmas. 

1.5 oz Pink Gin 
3.5oz Lemonade
Ice 
Frozen Raspberries/Cranberries

Fill a large glass with ice, add the pink gin and lemonade and then top with the prosecco. Garnish with frozen (or fresh) raspberries or to make it festive - cranberries.


Cranberry Spritz

1.5 oz Vodka
3oz Orange Juice
3oz Cranberry Juice
Strips Of Orange Peel (optional)
Sugar 
Water or Orange Juice

To make the sugar rim, put a few tablespoons of water or orange juice onto a small dish. In another dish add a few tablespoons of sugar. Tip the glass at and angle into the first dish to only cover the rim of the glass and rotate. Then do the same into the other dish to cover with sugar.  
Fill a glass with ice, add the orange juice and cranberry juice. Top with the vodka and stir. Add a strip or two of orange peel for decoration.



Orange Grenadine Mocktail

3oz Orange Juice 
4oz Lemonade
1oz Grenadine Syrup
Slices of Lemon

Add the Orange Juice to a glass, and top with the lemonade. Add the grenadine on top, and mix well before drinking.  Add the slices of lemon to garnish if desired..
