Last year Christmas came and went all too quickly. I didn't listen to nearly enough Christmas carols or watch an adequate amount of my favorite holiday movies (currently watching Home Alone 2 while I type this). So this year I vow to over indulge in everything festive to get my fair share of holiday spirit and compensate for last years lack thereof. This past weekend we marked the start to our holiday cheer and Christmas decorating. A miniature (and pink!) tree was purchased, mistletoe was strung in the doorway and four little stockings hang over our fireplace. Next on the docket: ice skating in Union Square and a festive Christmas party with close friends.
What are your favorite holiday cocktails? I would love recommendations!

I love this tree! Very unique and non-traditional. My grandmother always serves Poinsettas at her holiday party, it's cranberry juice and champagne. Simple, but tasty.
Bisous,

Ice skating at xmas is so fun! I can only imagine how fun it is in SF. And that tree is fantastic! xo

Love this pink tree -- so cute! And Home Alone 2 is seriously one of my favorite movies -- I adore Kevin McCallister!

i want a mini pink tree so badly. yours is perfect.
I hear you, I waited too long last year and didn't really get to do much at all (besides attend Christmas parties and drink copious amounts of wine - but I was lacking the nostalgic side of Christmas!)so this year I need to buckle down and make sure I watch the muppets christmas carol at least 3 times, etc! The time goes too quickly!
yayyy Christmas spirit!!!!
Sadly...I have no cocktail ideas...haha XDXD

I felt the same way this year -- last year I never even ended up getting a tree!
I'm making it up for it with decorating and baking and holiday crafts this time around.
cute tree- i like that it's festive but unique :)
Such a cute tree!
dave's mom has a pink tree like that. in fact her entire christmas decor collection is pink!
i don't have a fav holiday cocktail...i usually stick to wine and such.
I love a pink xmas tree!!
Excited to see you tomorrow too!
Warning I am desperate for an eyebrow wax and hair appt. However, I have to wait. I would usually be more groomed. :) ha
@Taylor - hahaha, you're too funny... and I could definitley use a hair appt too!! ;)
Ah, this pink tree! How adorable!
I woke up horribly late this morning and my first thought was that scene in Home Alone when they're rushing to the airport-aye!
As for my favorite holiday cocktails, I can't resist a well-made eggnog, and I love a classic champagne cocktail!
Cute tree!! Really love Christmas!!

I will make sure your holidays are extra festive this year! Love the pick tree!
i totally agree - soak up as much of the holidays as you possibly can! as for cocktails, i usually stick to my fall favorite - spiced cider & rum. i suppose i could also branch out to mulled wine, or some combination of bailey's with a hot drink. not very cocktail-y i know, but those are some favorites for the holidays.
check out my Hump Day post from this week! Lots of great cocktail ideas: http://thehautehousewife.com/recipes/hump-day-festive-holiday-cocktails/
