HOLIDAY REMIX

ONE EASY UPGRADE CAN ELEVATE A FAMILIAR DRINK FROM HUMDRUM TO HOLIDAY-READY. TAKE THESE CLEVER CLASSIC COCKTAIL SPINS FOR A STIR OR SHAKE THIS SEASON.

Simple cocktails—Rye & Ginger, Vodka Soda, Gin Martini, Cosmo—take on fresh ingredients, new flavours and presentation twists for a festive revamp.

LEAVE THE ELABORATE potions to mixologists: sometimes what you and your guests want is a familiar, consistently satisfying Highball or classic cocktail. Over the holidays, simple two- or threeingredient drinks are a blessing to the host, because they assemble easily and don’t require advanced bartending skills. A bit of extra effort can result in a drink that’s more memorable—and also personalized— by adding a dash of an unexpected flavour, a fresh mixer, an unexpected garnish or a new way of preparing or serving the results. Experiment widely: these enhancements work on other classic cocktails, too. Get started by upgrading your Rye and Ginger, Gin Martini, Cosmopolitan and Vodka Soda.
