This may not be a normal Christmas for most of us this year. We are being asked not to hold parties and be with extended families. Hopefully, we can still find some time to celebrate the Holidays. I’m sure all of you have your dinners precisely planned, but do you have your Christmas cocktails?
Today I have a Candy Cane Christmas Cocktail for you. Not only does it look fun and festive, but it is also fun to look at. PLUS… it is easy to make. You know I can’t have anything on my site that isn’t easy 🙂

Where do you find recipes and suggestions for new recipes for your mixed drinks and cocktails? I tend to ask Michael, he was a bartender in Chicago for years part-time. I still always check The Cocktail Project, I LOVE that site!
Have you checked out my spiked peppermint hot chocolate? I think you will enjoy it too!

Merry Christmas! It does, doesn’t it? I love it.
This does sound very good, I don’t have too many drinks, but I would love to try making this one!
I know, it just so “Christmasy” and it truly is tasty.
Yes please! This would put me to sleep early so Santa could get here faster! Thanks for sharing this idea!!
Well, it would be great if Santa got here a “little faster”, lol 🙂
