Christmas Party with POUR: The Best Christmas Cocktails

December 15, 2022

The holiday season is finally here! The streets are filled with festive lights, decorations line the walls of buildings, and most importantly, you have a couple of big Christmas parties on the agenda. The premier event bartending services company, Pour Bar Services, can provide the handcrafted cocktails, wine, and beer your upcoming Christmas party needs to keep the merry energy flowing. Let’s take a look at some classic, holiday-inspired drinks our bartender service professionals can mix up for you and your friends.

Classic Spiked Eggnog

It’s hard to go wrong with this classic drink that’s been a fan-favorite since the early medieval era of Europe. To make a basic eggnog, combine milk or cream, sugar, and egg yolks in a saucepan and cook over low heat until the mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Let the mixture cool, then our event bartending services specialists can stir in rum or brandy (depending on your preference) and chilled heavy cream. The spiked eggnog is served chilled, garnished with grated nutmeg or cinnamon.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups of milk or cream
  • 1/2 cup of sugar
  • 1 cup of rum or brandy
  • 1 cup of chilled heavy cream
  • Nutmeg/cinnamon

Hot Toddy

A hot toddy is one of the most simple drinks to create, yet it’s always a crowd-favorite and will surely make your party feel more cozy. To make a hot toddy, combine hot water, honey, lemon juice, and whiskey in a mug. Stir to combine, and garnish with a lemon slice and a cinnamon stick if desired.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup of hot water,
  • 1 tablespoon of honey,
  • 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and
  • 1 shot of whiskey

Mulled Wine

Another simple and delicious drink our bartender service professionals can prepare at your next Christmas party is traditional mulled wine. This holiday classic fairs well for those that already have an affinity for red wine. It’s made by heating red wine, spices, and sugar together, creating a fragrant and warm beverage that’s easy to indulge in.

Ingredients:

  • 1 bottle of red wine
  • 1/2 cup of sugar
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 2 cloves
  • 1 sliced orange
