HOLIDAYS | 5 Easy Christmas Cocktail Recipes

11:09 am


Christmas is not for a few more days, but I mean... everyone is already drinking and eating like calories don't exist - I don't care what nutritionists say they don't in December. They just don't. So we decided to compile five of the yummiest and easiest xmas cocktail recipes for your festive and party needs! I don't know about you but I feel like if you serve a cocktail in a mason jar then it has to be healthy... At least that's how I've conditioned myself and I'm fine with that. Enjoy girls but drink responsibly! Love the Stelly team x x x

Cranberry Margarita 

Time:
Active time 10 minutes
Total time 4 hours

Ingredients:
♥ 12 oz fresh cranberries
♥ 1 cup of water
♥ 1 cup sugar
♥ 4 oz tequila (divided)
♥ 3 oz triple sec (divided)
♥ Juice of two limes
♥ Lime wedges, salt and cranberries for garnish

Directions:
First, make the cranberry syrup. Combine the cranberries, water and sugar in a medium saucepot over high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until berries burst and begin to break down. Immediately remove pot from heat and strain. Toss the berries and keep the syrup. Place syrup in the fridge for a couple hours or overnight to cool completely.

To make the margaritas, run the edge of a mason jar with a lime and then dip in salt. Add about a third cup of the cranberry syrup to a cocktail shaker (you be the judge according to how sweet you like your margaritas). Follow with the tequila, triple sec, lime juice and ice. Strain margarita into mason jar and finish with more ice.


Serves two.
