I saved a recipe for a pumpkin pie martini. It sounds sweet of course, but I thought I’d offer them anyways.
I’m also looking for something warm. Hot buttered rum maybe? I don’t like cider. What are you serving (other than wine of course)? |
|
We are putting out prosecco, cold Apple cider and cranberry juice for make your own mimosas- cinnamon stick and lime garnishes.
For something warm, you could serve hot Cocoa with baileys or spiced wine. |

Have made cranberry shrub which can be mixed into a cocktail with bourbon and bitters, or topped with sparkling water for the kids to have a festive drink.
|
| Mulled wine is nice this time of year. Also sometimes make mulled cider for the kids with the option to spike for adults. We usually just serve sparkling wine before Thanksgiving dinner. I like PP’s idea of offering the option to mimosa-tise it. Might do that this year and also add some gin, sugar, and lemons to the serving area for any who want to make French 75s. |

We love an apple butter cocktail like this one:

Sorry- I missed the “warm” part. |
| Wild turkey shots |
| You can buy a higher quality apple wine (ie from New York nothing added). It’s very good warmed up! |
|
Hot cider with fireball whiskey- tastes like apple pie
Old fashioneds are my go to. Festive with the cherry |
|
Similar to two PPs
I read about fireball with cranberry juice, but cranberry shrub would be even better. |
|
Apple cider mimosa: Prosecco with 1/4 nonalcoholic apple cider and a sugar rim. Cinnamon stick as a garnish. Not hot but easy and delicious.
|
| vodka and gravy 🍸 |
| You have these drinks in front of children on Thanksgiving? What is that teaching them? |
Proper pairings, obviously. |

I like Red Needles, and I've had them hot over the holidays instead of over ice.
2 oz tequila 1 slice lemon enough cranberry juice to top up the glass https://www.openculture.com/2019/08/leonard-cohens-cocktail-recipe-learn-how-to-make-the-red-needle.html |
