I love a good cocktail and this Bourbon Holiday Cocktail is perfect for Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years! My family has always made some sort of tasty cocktail around the holidays like brandy and eggnog or hot toddy's, which I also love. This cocktail is more on the fruity side with that rich flavor from the bourbon. I've been experimenting more with different cocktail flavors and this one is great for those who don't typically drink bourbon but want to give it a try. Check out the full recipe below!
I love the taste of this Bulleit Bourbon. It's bold flavor is also really smooth and can be enjoyed in so many ways.
How to Make a Bourbon Holiday Cocktail?
First, get out all of your ingredients. Set out the bourbon, orange juice, pomegranate juice, honey, orange soda water, ice and garnishes. Next, make a honey simple syrup on the stove by combining honey with water and bringing it to a simmer. Then, add ice to cocktail glasses. Pour a shot into each glass, then pour in the honey simple syrup. I combine these first to sweeten the bourbon. Then add your juices and top with orange soda water. Finish with a garnish of pomegranate seeds, orange slices and rosemary.
Not only is this bourbon holiday cocktail delicious, it's also so pretty! Pouring the pomegranate juice into the orange juice creates such beautiful colors and turns into a deep red. Grab the full recipe below and enjoy this holiday season with your friends and family! xo, Bri
