5 Cocktail Recipes to Turn Up the Heat at Your Winter Wedding. #WinterWeddingSeries

5 Cocktail Recipes to Turn Up the Heat at Your Winter Wedding. #WinterWeddingSeries

Hi folks, we’re back again with our #WinterWeddingSeries!

We recently brought to you a list of some of the best winter wedding drinks to warm up your end-of-the-year wedding affair. But then it hit us that it really doesn’t do justice to all the fabulous alcoholic ideas that we could give to you as well. If you think cocktails > mocktails, then we share the same boat, my friend. Because really, isn’t everything so much more fun? So yeah, if you’re out there looking for the most awesome cocktails to serve at your upcoming wedding bash, then you have come to the right place.
Warning: Your guests are going to get so turnt!

 

SPICED RED WINE SANGRIA

Ideal for the chilly weather. This drink is the perfect mixture of fruity and spicy. Not to mention how pretty the deep berry hue looks with all those fruit slices.

1 bottle spiced red wine

3/4th cup brandy

1 cup apple cider

1 cup diced apple slices
 

Directions:

Empty the bottle of spiced red wine into a large pitcher. Slowly add the brandy, then the apple cider. Stir, and then add the diced apples to the mixture. Let the mixture sit overnight to intensify in flavour before serving.

 

IRISH COFFEE
