3 delicious winter cocktails to warm you up from the inside out
When the weather calls for staying inside, these winter cocktail recipes made with gin, whisky and sherry will elevate any night, whether you're hosting or solo.
When it's far too frigid to head out to the best bars in Toronto, but we're still craving something delicious, making a simple mixed drink at home just won't cut it. We want something that's as cozy and comforting as our footy pyjamas. That's why we've rounded up these winter cocktail recipes that will make any night in special, whether you're pairing them with your favourite show or a candle-lit, romantic dinner.
Whisky aficionados will love BEARFACE, a Canadian dram aged in The Great White North's wilderness. Similar to a New York Sour, but with a homegrown twist, the Bear Country Sour recipe features lemon, sugar, egg white and a patriotic ice wine float. Gin cocktails are often associated with lighter serves, but the award-winning Glendalough Wild Botanical Irish Gin is perfectly at-home in this Apple Pie Hot Toddy recipe. For an apple drink with a little more fizz, Harvey's Bristol Cream Sherry elevates an apple juice and ginger-ale combo that's simple to make and even easier to drink.
Whether you're hosting friends and family or cozying in on a Friday night, these winter cocktail recipes are the perfect pick-me-up to make at home this season.
