The Twelve Days of Christmas Cocktails

The Twelve Days of Christmas are underway and what better way to celebrate the Christmas countdown with a cocktail a day. Always remember that the best way to spread Christmas cheer is drinking cocktails when friends are near. 

12 Drummers Drumming: Hot Buttered Rum

On the Twelfth Day of Christmas Cocktails my true love gave to me... this tasty drink that puts the rum in Drummer Boy.

11 Pipers Piping: Spiked Peppermint Hot Chocolate

"Pipping" hot chocolate boozy enough to make eleven Pipers tipsy.

10 Lords a Leaping: Grasshopper

This cocktail will make any Lord hop, skip, and leap for joy.

9 Ladies Dancing: Pink Lady

This pink drink is sure to get you and eight of your closest ladies dancing.

8 Maid's a Milking: Milkmaid

No cows were harmed in the making of this cocktail – this three ingredient cocktail calls for tequila, agave and cream of coconut.

7 Swan's a Swimming: Black Swan

Swan dive into this blackberry lemonade vodka cocktail. This drink adds a cool, refreshing twist to the warm, toasty winter.

6 Geese a Laying: Grey Goose Fireside

This Christmas cocktail is the perfect way to light your holiday fire. 

5 Golden Rings: Golden Cadillac

Don't let the lack of golden color deter you from making this creamy, dessert cocktail. Because after all, isn't chocolate the only thing better than gold?

4 Calling Birds: Last Call

A little birdie, or four, called to say that this rum masterpiece is the perfect way to celebrate the Twelve Days of Christmas cocktail countdown.

3 French Hens: French 75

Make your Christmas champagne toast a little more special this year by trying out this French 75 cocktail.

2 Turtle Doves: Chocolate Turtle Martini

Two turtle doves and a chocolate martini.

A Partridge in a Pear Tree: Pear Martini

No partridges in this martini – just plenty of pears and vodka.

Looks like the tree isn't the only thing getting lit this year. Enjoy your Twelve Days of Christmas Cocktails with the food to match. Happy holidays!
