Making Spirits Bright With Holiday Cocktail Recipes Curated by Sazerac

The holidays are just around the corner. For some of us that may mean cookie parties, corporate holiday parties or long trips to see the in laws, and for others it may just mean sipping a holiday cocktail while the kids run amuck and we try to decorate the Christmas tree. Whatever your personal situation this holiday season, one thing is for sure; whether you are the hostess or being hosted having a great holiday cocktail recipe in your back pocket is essential.

This year we are thrilled to have the Sazerac Company based right here in New Orleans share some of their favorite New Orleans themed cocktail recipes for your enjoyment.
