The North Pole, this might just be the most festive drink ever!
When it comes to Christmas, I canโt help but to go all out. I love having fun with Christmas recipes, creating not only the cutest foods, but making them the most delicious too. This fun cocktail is no exception, this drink just screams Christmas and nothing else. Itโs sweet and slightly chocolatey with just a hint of peppermint and ginger. Think gingerbread martini meets chocolate martiniโฆbasically itโs Christmas in a cup with a hit of vodkaโฆ
The key to this cocktail is the molasses and pinch of ginger. It makes the drink sweet, gingery and all things cozy! Wellโฆthe Kahlรบa is pretty KEY as well, it adds a kick of coffee flavor and pairs really nicely with the creaminess of the drink. If youโre thinking this sounds like a lot for one drink, think again, everything together is truly awesome, and like I said, itโs pretty much like having Christmas in a cup! Still canโt decide if these are more of a cocktail or a dessert, but Iโm going with a combo and saying itโs fair game to serve them either before or after dinner! <โI surely did both!
I actually served these up on Thanksgiving Day to my family and they where the perfect sweet drink to keep everyone decorating the tree and going until dinner. Plus, it was also my younger brotherโs 21st birthday, therefore, cocktails were obviously needed. The fam has already requested these be made again over Christmasโฆso our entire family can try them. If you enjoy sweeter cocktails, these are totally what you NEED to be making for your next holiday party. These would be perfect for a night of Christmas tree decorating, or after a day hitting the stores hard. Theyโre a super fun way to celebrate the season. So relax, kick back, enjoy the tree lights, a nice roaring fire AND, if youโre like me, your favorite Christmas music. Yep, this is your holiday drink. <โDO IT.

What did you use for the rim and the garnish?
Hi- do you use fresh ginger or powdered ginger for this?
Thank you!
