The must have spiced holiday cocktail! With cranberries, apples, oranges, cinnamon and cloves! You can make this ahead of time!
I think I found my favorite holiday cocktail of 2017.
It’s the perfect spiced cocktail with fresh cranberries, apples, oranges, rosemary, cinnamon, star anise and whole cloves.
And you can make this ahead of time and let it chill right in the fridge. When ready to serve, pop open that bottle of wine and pour over ice.
If you want a non-alcoholic version, you can substitute a lemon-lime soda (such as 7-Up or Sprite) for the pinot grigio.
Don’t worry. I got you, guys.
Just because you can’t have wine doesn’t mean you can’t indulge in this festive cocktail for both kids and grown-ups!
