Hey everyone,

I am having a Christmas Cocktail party for all of my friends and was wondering if anyone has any good drink recipes? Maybe like a champagne punch or something? Any ideas would be very helpful!!!


Happy Holidays!

    Hot Spiced Cran-Apple Wine

    You mix equal parts of spiced apple wine and cranberry juice. Heat in a crock pot on low with some cinnamon sticks in the mixture. Serve in a wine glass rimmed with sugar & cinnamon with a slice of apple on the edge of the glass...honeycrisp apple would be awesome.

    Also a great champagne punch is Champagne, Absolute vodka, and cranberry/splash orange/pinapple

    OOHHHH I have a simple, yet festive drink that is awesome for cocktail parties

    1 tsp - Fresh/frozen raspberries.. all blended up into a puree
    3oz - Sparkling white wine or champagne.

    Place puree at the bottom of the champagne glass, pour sparkling wine or champagne on top... EASY.. low cal, low sugar looks awesome in a glass. ( you could place a a single raspberry on the top to serve)

    Yepper!!!
    Pomegranate Frost
    ice cubes
    1 1/2 cups pomegranite juice
    1 1/2 cups cranberry juice
    1/2 cup lemon juice
    1/2 cup lime juice
    1 1/2 cups pellegrino sparkling natural mineral water
    8 mint leaves, finely shredded

    Fill a pitcher half full of ice, ADD the juices,sparkling water and fresh mint stir until mixed well. it's great with vodka or rum 70 calories w/o the alcohol- you can get the calorie count of the alcohol on the MFP food database!! Enjoy it's a great holiday drink! You can probably substitute the water for tonic , club soda or diet 7up..play around with it!!! Enjoy!:drinker:

    Actually I'm thinking you can throw in a bottle of bold red wine and make a dang fine sangria with those ingredients!

    Mulled wine

    Packet of mulling spices (I get them from the local winery)
    brown sugar
    water
    bottle of wine - apple wines work well

    Put it in a crockpot and heat it up. I don't like wine, but I like this.
