Tips For Serving
- Use festive glassware. If you are hosting a Christmas party, serve these cocktails in Christmas-themed cocktail glasses, such as these white and gold Christmas glasses, or these Christmas tree cocktail glasses.
- Make your own peppermint syrup. Some of these recipes call for peppermint syrup. You can use a store bought peppermint syrup to save time, or you can easily make a homemade peppermint syrup using candy canes.
- Create a candy cane rim. You can add a candy cane rim to any one of these cocktail recipes. To do so, line the rim of your cocktail glass with a bit of regular simple syrup (or peppermint simple syrup!). Then, roll the edge in some crushed candy canes, pressing gently to make it stick. If you find it not holding well, set the glasses upside down on a paper towel in the fridge for about 15 minutes after adding the candy cane rim.
