The WHITE CHRISTMAS MARTINI - a Spiced White Chocolate Eggnog Cocktail

One of my all time favorite holiday songs is White Christmas by Bing Crosby. I always look to see if there's a broadcast of the classic Christmas movie Holiday Inn, starring Bing Crosby, Rosemary Clooney, Danny Kaye and the great Irving Berlin song "White Christmas".

This white chocolate flavored rum eggnog cocktail is my tribute to some personal holiday nostalgia.

Amaretto WINTER SNOWFLAKE MARTINI & Nogatini

For all you Amaretto fans out there the Winter Snowflake Martini should solve your thirst for a creamy almond kissed cocktail. Just make sure your vodka and Amaretto are chilled when you mix them with the heavy cream to avoid any curdling. Sprinkle with a little nutmeg on top and drop in a chocolate flavored candy cane for garnish and have yourself a Merry Little Christmas.

PEPPERMINT PATTY - Hot Cocoa and Peppermint Rocks!

Though the PEPPERMINT PATTY is not a martini I just had to post the cocktail recipe for this warm and minty hot cocoa treat! It's called a Peppermint Patty and is just delicious for sipping in front of a warm fire after a day of ice skating, skiing or reading a good book all tucked up in your favorite chair!

The classic Peppermint Patty is so easy - just grab a couple packets of your favorite instant hot cocoa, prepare according to the package and then stir in a nice dash of peppermint schnapps or other peppermint liqueur. Pop a cute little mini candy cane in (some great chocolate ones are made by Hersheys and can be found at Walmart!)

I like to do mine this way:

CHRISTMAS COSMOPOLITAN - Cranberry Christmas Martini

THE CHRISTMAS COSMOPOLITAN RECIPE
Updated November 19, 2015

The Cosmopolitan goes Christmas with the addition of a fun garnish of Sugared Cranberries. Cosmos are a great holiday martini because they are cranberry based in flavor, making them the perfect cocktail for your holiday buffet or Christmas party.

The addition of Sugared Cranberries - recipe at The Diva of Tiny Foods - adds a festive holiday touch and some additional sweetness to balance the tart cranberry flavor.

Serve these with my Baked Cranberry Brie from the Diva of Tiny Foods and have a Berry Merry Christmas Cocktail Hour!
