When it’s cold outside there’s nothing better than a handcrafted co*cktail to warm you up!
Every year my family has our annual Christmas Eve Eve party. It started as a Christmas Eve party that had to move one year due to other obligations and then it stuck because Christmas Eve Eve is really easy to remember and honestly it’s just fun to say!
Besides coming up with the delicious menu, the other important thing is the drinks that we’ll serve. So that spark the ideas to find easy Christmas co*cktails that are great for a crowd. Serve these co*cktails in large pitchers, punch bowlsor beverage dispensers that look nice on your serving table. That way guest can help themselves and you look like a superstar!

3. Christmas Sangria
Found from Muy Bueno Cookbook
I always recommend making sangria for large crowds. With a few ingredients, you can have a handcrafted co*cktail that everyone will love. The key to a good sangria is letting it sit for a few hours before serving. You want to let the fruit soak up all the delicious wine. So make this co*cktail the night before so it’s a no-brainer on the day of your party.
