<p>After New Year&#8217;s Eve, St. Patrick&#8217;s Day may be the holiday most associated with drinking. These 7 St. Patrick&#8217;s Day drinks range from the classic Irish whiskey to the green Grasshopper, as well as a couple unique cocktails you might not associate with St. Patty&#8217;s Day. Tequila anyone?</p>



<p>And if beer is your chosen St. Patrick&#8217;s Day drink, check out our <a href="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/4-guinness-cocktails/">Guinness cocktail recipes</a>!</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Irish Old Fashioned</h2>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="683" height="1024" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Irish-Old-Fashioned-683x1024.jpg" alt="Irish whisky bottle and cocktail in a glass" class="wp-image-2705" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Irish-Old-Fashioned-683x1024.jpg 683w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Irish-Old-Fashioned-200x300.jpg 200w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Irish-Old-Fashioned-150x225.jpg 150w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Irish-Old-Fashioned.jpg 700w" sizes="(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px" /></figure></div>



<p class="has-text-align-center has-background" style="background-color:#d1f8aa;font-size:12px"><em>This post contains affiliate links to products and services we recommend. We may make a commission, and there is no cost to you.</em></p>



<p>The classic Old Fashioned is usually made with bourbon, but for this St. Patrick&#8217;s Day drink we&#8217;re using Irish whiskey, of course! We also used a honey simple syrup (get the recipe in our <a href="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/how-to-store-simple-syrup-ultimate-guide/">Ultimate Guide to Simple Syrups!</a>) for a warm, rich taste. </p>



<p>In a <a href="https://amzn.to/3rEhIuw" rel="sponsored nofollow">rocks glass</a>, add 2 ounces of your favorite Irish whiskey, 1/2 ounce honey simple syrup, and two dashes each of orange bitters and <a href="https://amzn.to/3lkqQlX" rel="sponsored nofollow">Angostura bitters</a>. Add ice and stir well. Cut a piece of orange peel and express is over the drink. Rub the orange peel on the rim of the glass, then drop it in the drink. </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Irish Lady</h2>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img decoding="async" width="800" height="533" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Irish-Lady.jpg" alt="Irish Lady whiskey sour" class="wp-image-2706" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Irish-Lady.jpg 800w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Irish-Lady-300x200.jpg 300w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Irish-Lady-768x512.jpg 768w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Irish-Lady-150x100.jpg 150w" sizes="(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure></div>



<p>The Irish Lady is smooth and sweet and it might be your new favorite whiskey sour! To make this cocktail, add the following ingredients to a <a href="https://shrsl.com/2iqxn" rel="sponsored nofollow">cocktail shaker</a> (with NO ice):</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>1 1/2 ounces of Irish whiskey</li><li>1/2 ounce of triple sec</li><li>1 ounce fresh-squeezed lemon juice,</li><li>1/2 ounce simple syrup</li><li>1 egg white</li></ul>



<p>Give it all a vigorous dry (without ice) shake to emulsify the egg white. Then add a couple ice cubes and shake again. Strain into a beautiful <a href="https://amzn.to/3l70Xpv" rel="sponsored nofollow">coupe glass</a> and watch the foam rise to the top. </p>



<div align="center"><a rel="nofollow" href="https://drizly.sjv.io/c/255370/794198/9425" id="794198"><img decoding="async" src="//a.impactradius-go.com/display-ad/9425-794198" border="0" alt="" width="300" height="250"></a><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" height="0" width="0" src="https://imp.pxf.io/i/255370/794198/9425" style="position:absolute;visibility:hidden;" border="0"></div>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Grasshopper</h2>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="533" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/grasshopper.jpg" alt="Grasshopper cocktail" class="wp-image-2709" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/grasshopper.jpg 800w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/grasshopper-300x200.jpg 300w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/grasshopper-768x512.jpg 768w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/grasshopper-150x100.jpg 150w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure></div>



<p>Everyone wants a green cocktail for St. Patrick&#8217;s Day. But not many of them taste good. We experimented with several recipes using crème de menthe and they mostly tasted like medicine. But the Grasshopper – a classic, green dessert cocktail &#8211; has enough sweet to balance out the minty medicine taste.</p>



<p>To make a Grasshopper, first prepare your glass. Grate a chocolate bar onto a plate. Rub the rim of your glass with a little crème de cacao, then dip the rim in chocolate shavings. Next, add the following to your cocktail shaker with ice:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>1 ounce cream</li><li>1 ounce white crème de cacao</li><li>1 ounce green crème de menthe</li></ul>



<p>Shake well and strain into your prepared glass. Garnish with a clover to give this cocktail a beautiful finish!</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Irish Cactus</h2>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="683" height="1024" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/irish-cactus-683x1024.jpg" alt="Bailey's Irish Cream and Tequila" class="wp-image-2708" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/irish-cactus-683x1024.jpg 683w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/irish-cactus-200x300.jpg 200w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/irish-cactus-150x225.jpg 150w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/irish-cactus.jpg 700w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px" /></figure></div>



<p>You don&#8217;t normally think of tequila for your St. Patrick&#8217;s Day drinks, do you? Well, think again! This cocktail was probably our favorite of all the drinks we tried.</p>



<p>The Irish Cactus is super simple to make. Just combine two ounces of Bailey&#8217;s Irish Cream and one ounce of tequila in a shaker with ice. Give it a quick shake just to chill it, then strain and enjoy.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Irish Coffee</h2>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="533" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/irish-coffee.jpg" alt="Irish coffee" class="wp-image-2707" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/irish-coffee.jpg 800w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/irish-coffee-300x200.jpg 300w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/irish-coffee-768x512.jpg 768w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/irish-coffee-150x100.jpg 150w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure></div>



<p>Another favorite, this boozy coffee is a perfect after-dinner drink. Start with 4 ounces of hot coffee and add 2 teaspoons of brown sugar. Stir to fully dissolve the sugar, then add 1 1/2 ounces of Irish whiskey. Stir and top with whipped cream and a dash of cinnamon or nutmeg. </p>



<div align="center"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=1182465&amp;u=2324839&amp;m=28144&amp;urllink=&amp;afftrack="><img decoding="async" src="https://static.shareasale.com/image/28144/320x100_3.jpg" border="0" alt="Unique &amp;amp; Exciting Bar Gifts"></a></div>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Leprechaun Sangria</h2>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="600" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/leprechaun-sangria.jpg" alt="glass of sangria in the snow" class="wp-image-2704" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/leprechaun-sangria.jpg 800w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/leprechaun-sangria-300x225.jpg 300w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/leprechaun-sangria-768x576.jpg 768w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/leprechaun-sangria-150x113.jpg 150w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure></div>



<p>This sweet, tart, white sangria is a unique addition to your St. Patrick&#8217;s Day drink menu. To make it, pour the following ingredients into a large pitcher:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>1 bottle of Pinot Grigio or similar white wine</li><li>1/2 cup triple sec</li><li>1 green apple, sliced</li><li>1 cucumber, peeled and sliced</li><li>3 kiwis, peeled and sliced</li><li>2 limes, sliced</li><li>1 cup limeade (we like <a href="https://amzn.to/38vHV7d" rel="sponsored nofollow">Santa Cruz Organic Limeade</a>)</li></ul>



<p>Stir all ingredients together and chill for a couple hours before serving. </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Lucky Punch</h2>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="600" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/lucky-punch.jpg" alt="green punch" class="wp-image-2703" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/lucky-punch.jpg 800w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/lucky-punch-300x225.jpg 300w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/lucky-punch-768x576.jpg 768w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/lucky-punch-150x113.jpg 150w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure></div>



<p>This one&#8217;s for the kid in all of us. Do you remember that punch your mom made by combining sherbet and ginger ale? It&#8217;s my kids&#8217; favorite. </p>



<p>You can make this in a punch bowl &#8211; with or without alcohol. Combine a 2:1 ratio of limeade to ginger ale in a big bowl, then add in several scoops of lime sherbet. For an alcoholic version, add in lemon vodka equal to the amount of ginger ale.  </p>



<p>To make a single serving of this cocktail, use the same 2:1:1 ratio. Pour 4 ounces of chilled limeade, 2 ounces of ginger ale, and 2 ounces of lemon vodka into a glass and stir. Top with a scoop of lime sherbet. It&#8217;s sweet and so delicious! </p>



<p>Feel free to play with your ratios &#8211; this recipe is very forgiving. You can make it more or less &#8220;sparkling&#8221; by adjusting the ginger ale, or add more vodka if you want it super boozy!</p>



<p>Let us know if you try any of these St. Patrick&#8217;s Day drinks!</p>

<p>This Fireball Eggnog recipe will spice up your favorite Christmas drink! Creamy eggnog blends deliciously with the cinnamon heat of Fireball Whiskey. Then we added a bit of orange flavor for a twist!</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="533" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/eggnog-cocktail.jpg" alt="Fireball Eggnog" class="wp-image-2425" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/eggnog-cocktail.jpg 800w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/eggnog-cocktail-300x200.jpg 300w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/eggnog-cocktail-768x512.jpg 768w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/eggnog-cocktail-150x100.jpg 150w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/eggnog-cocktail-735x490.jpg 735w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure></div>



<p>It&#8217;s the season of eggnog and sure, you can buy a boozy, pre-made version in your local liquor store, but what fun is that? Just buy some eggnog at the grocery store and try one of these two recipes to spike it up for the holidays. </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Does Fireball Go With Eggnog? Yes!</h2>



<p>Ever since Walmart started selling a non-alcoholic Fireball eggnog, people have been going crazy for this flavor combination. But if you want an alcoholic drink, you&#8217;ll need to add Fireball whiskey. And while I usually can&#8217;t get enough of Fireball, adding it to already-flavored eggnog just seems WAY too sweet.</p>



<p>The Fireball web site has a recipe they call Firenog. It&#8217;s 2 parts Fireball Whiskey and 1 part eggnog. Sounds fine, but I can never just follow a recipe. I need to make it my own.</p>



<p>I&#8217;ve been experimenting a lot with bitters lately and I wanted to use these <a href="https://amzn.to/3nQ7oh7" rel="sponsored nofollow">orange bitters from Scrappy&#8217;s</a> to balance the sweetness of this drink. I also decided to add a touch of Triple Sec to enhance the orange flavor. </p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="533" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/eggnog-bitters.jpg" alt="Orange bitters" class="wp-image-2426" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/eggnog-bitters.jpg 800w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/eggnog-bitters-300x200.jpg 300w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/eggnog-bitters-768x512.jpg 768w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/eggnog-bitters-150x100.jpg 150w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure></div>



<p>This Fireball Eggnog recipe is simple. Pour 4 ounces of eggnog, 1.5 ounces of Fireball whiskey, 1/2 ounce Triple Sec, and 3-4 dashes of orange bitters in a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake well until frosty cold, then strain and enjoy. </p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="533" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/eggnog-ingredients.jpg" alt="pouring eggnog into cocktail shaker" class="wp-image-2423" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/eggnog-ingredients.jpg 800w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/eggnog-ingredients-300x200.jpg 300w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/eggnog-ingredients-768x512.jpg 768w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/eggnog-ingredients-150x100.jpg 150w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure></div>



<p>But if Fireball is not your thing, any whiskey or bourbon is generally excellent in eggnog. </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How Much Whiskey Do You Put in Eggnog?</h2>



<p><strong>You&#8217;ll want a ratio of 4:1 eggnog to whiskey.  For each glass, mix 4 ounces of eggnog with one ounce of whiskey, bourbon, or your spirit of choice. Mix well and served chilled or over ice. </strong></p>



<p>There are many types of whiskey, so be sure to experiment with your alcohol of choice. I tried Misunderstood&#8217;s Ginger Spiced Whiskey, it was especially delicious! Chill this drink well and garnish with some crystallized ginger for a beautiful Christmas cocktail. </p>

<p><em>Hanukkah, oh Hanukkah, come light the menorah,<br>Let&#8217;s have a party, we&#8217;ll all dance the hora &#8212;</em></p>



<p>{{ Insert screeching sound of a vinyl record stopping abruptly }}</p>



<p>No, there won’t be much partying or hora-dancing for Hanukkah 2020. But that doesn&#8217;t mean you can&#8217;t enjoy one of these amazing Hanukkah cocktails. Or two. <em>Or five. </em></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Bit About Hanukkah</h2>



<p>Somewhere around 2,200 years ago, the Jews lived in the Holy Land of Israel, which was ruled by the Persians and the Egyptian Greeks. They allowed the Jews to follow their religious traditions. But then King Antiochus IV came along and forced the Jews to worship Greek Gods. Anyone caught practicing Judaism could be killed.</p>



<p>A group of Jews called the Maccabees revolted and, after a 3-year war, they liberated Jerusalem from the Greeks. The Maccabees wanted to rededicate their temple to&nbsp;God, as the Greeks had been worshipping&nbsp;Zeus&nbsp;there. They lit the temple&#8217;s menorah (the Hebrew word for lamp) but they could only find enough oil to keep the menorah lit for one day. Miraculously, the menorah remained lit for 8 days!</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="600" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/menorah.jpg" alt="Menorah" class="wp-image-2364" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/menorah.jpg 800w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/menorah-300x225.jpg 300w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/menorah-768x576.jpg 768w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/menorah-150x113.jpg 150w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure></div>



<p>Hanukkah, also known as the Festival of Lights, is celebrated for 8 days and Jews&nbsp;traditionally eat fried foods such as potato latkes and jelly doughnuts to commemorate the&nbsp;miracle&nbsp;of the oil.</p>



<p>Now I enjoy a peppermint or eggnog cocktail as much as the next person, but they don&#8217;t go very well with brisket and latkes. So I created five Hanukkah-themed cocktails to help celebrate the Festival of Lights.<em> L&#8217;chaim!</em></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Menorah Margarita</h2>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="700" height="933" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/menorah-margarita.jpg" alt="Menorah Margarita hanukkah cocktail" class="wp-image-2359" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/menorah-margarita.jpg 700w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/menorah-margarita-225x300.jpg 225w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/menorah-margarita-640x853.jpg 640w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/menorah-margarita-150x200.jpg 150w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px" /></figure></div>

<p>This margarita is a bit smoky &#8211; like the candles on your menorah. It gets its beautiful blue hue from simple syrup and ice cubes made from butterfly pea flower tea (recipe below). </p>



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>Mix 1 ounce mezcal tequila, 1 ounce blanco tequila, and 1 ounce lime juice in tall glass.</li><li>Add crushed ice and club soda, leaving about 1-2 inches at the top of the glass.</li><li>Carefully top with crushed blue ice cubes.</li><li>Slowly pour 1 ounce of blue simple syrup on top. As the syrup and ice cubes slowly mix with the lime juice, the bottom of the drink will start to turn purple. Once you mix it, it will all turn purple.</li><li>Mix well before drinking to distribute the flavors.</li></ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How to Make Blue Simple Syrup</h2>



<div align="center"><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.amazon.com/Terra-Butterfly-Additives-Caffeine-Beverages/dp/B081MCF83T/ref=as_li_ss_il?crid=3QK6U0MYGSOP6&amp;dchild=1&amp;keywords=butterfly+pea+flower&amp;qid=1607780142&amp;sprefix=butterfly+pea,aps,168&amp;sr=8-11&amp;linkCode=li2&amp;tag=eprmarketing-20&amp;linkId=93e0135f1f30d6888e467c86d8044857&amp;language=en_US" target="_blank"><img decoding="async" border="0" src="//ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com/widgets/q?_encoding=UTF8&amp;ASIN=B081MCF83T&amp;Format=_SL160_&amp;ID=AsinImage&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;WS=1&amp;tag=eprmarketing-20&amp;language=en_US"></a><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=eprmarketing-20&amp;language=en_US&amp;l=li2&amp;o=1&amp;a=B081MCF83T" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;"></div>



<p>I made my blue simple syrup with <a href="https://amzn.to/347elCK" rel="sponsored nofollow">butterfly pea flowers</a> (click to buy some &#8211; they are really fun!). Here&#8217;s the step-by-step:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>Steep 1/4 cup dried butterfly pea flowers in a teapot with 4 cups of boiling water. </li><li>Steep for 10 minutes, then strain out the flowers.</li><li>Combine 1 cup of the blue tea in a saucepan with 1 cup of sugar. (Keep the rest of the tea to drink and to make ice cubes.)</li><li>Heat the mixture to a gentle simmer for 5 minutes to fully dissolve the sugar. You want to see steam coming from the surface and a few bubbles. Do not let the water come to a vigorous boil or you’ll start boiling off water, which will affect your water to sugar ratio.&nbsp;</li><li>Stir with a whisk several times during the heating process.&nbsp;</li><li>Remove from the heat and cool for at least 10 minutes.</li><li>Pour into a clean, air-tight jar. A mason jar is ideal for your homemade simple syrup. It’s a good idea to sterilize your jar in boiling water before storing your syrup to guard against any bacterial growth.</li><li>Find more simple syrups recipes in our <a href="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/how-to-store-simple-syrup-ultimate-guide/">Ultimate Guide to Simple Syrups!</a></li></ul>



<p>The remainder of your butterfly pea flower tea can be used to make blue ice cubes or to simply drink as a healthy tea. And if you don&#8217;t know about its magic color-changing properties, squeeze some lemon in your tea and watch it turn purple! </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Vodka Gimel</h2>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="600" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/vodka-gimel.jpg" alt="Vodka Gimel Hanukkah cocktail" class="wp-image-2358" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/vodka-gimel.jpg 800w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/vodka-gimel-300x225.jpg 300w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/vodka-gimel-768x576.jpg 768w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/vodka-gimel-150x113.jpg 150w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure></div>



<p>Gimel is the best letter on the dreidel. </p>



<p>Dreidel is a game played on Hanukkah that involves spinning a 4-sided top. At the beginning of each round, every player puts one game piece into the center &#8220;pot.&#8221; Game pieces can be anything from pennies to poker chips to chocolate Hanukkah coins called &#8220;gelt.&#8221;</p>



<p>When it&#8217;s your turn, you spin the dreidel and the letter it lands on tells you what to do. You might get nothing (nun), you might get half the pot (hey), or you might have to put a piece in (shin). But when the dreidel lands on gimel, you win the whole pot!  </p>



<p>A riff on the Vodka Gimlet, I enhanced this cocktail with a bit of blueberry. If you prefer the classic Gimlet, use gin instead of vodka.  </p>



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>Combine 2.5 ounces of vodka (or gin), ½ ounce lime juice, and ½ ounce <a href="https://shrsl.com/2oa2l" rel="sponsored nofollow">blueberry simple syrup</a> in a cocktail shaker with ice.</li><li>Shake until frosty, the strain into a <a href="https://amzn.to/2Kjv26Z" rel="sponsored nofollow">coupe glass</a>. </li><li>Add blueberries for garnish.</li></ul>



<div align="center"><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" href="https://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=1533286&amp;u=2324839&amp;m=88993&amp;urllink=&amp;afftrack="><img decoding="async" src="https://static.shareasale.com/image/88993/AffiliateFruitFlowers-01_00.png" border="0"></a></div>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Mazel Tov Cocktail</h2>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="700" height="842" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/mazel-tov-drink.jpg" alt="Mazel Tov cocktail" class="wp-image-2360" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/mazel-tov-drink.jpg 700w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/mazel-tov-drink-249x300.jpg 249w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/mazel-tov-drink-150x180.jpg 150w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px" /></figure></div>



<p>No, not molotov cocktail, but this drink does have some fire in it. And I tried so hard to make it flame. Cinnamon sticks don&#8217;t burn, they only smoke. Same with rosemary and thyme. Then I read that you could soak a sugar cube in high-proof alcohol and it would burn. No dice &#8211; even when I made a little &#8220;pool&#8221; of 100 proof bourbon inside the orange peel shell. (If anyone knows how to make a flaming cocktail garnish, please let me know!)</p>



<p>Flame or no flame, this fireball mixed drink pairs wonderfully with the applesauce on your latkes.  </p>



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>Pour 2 ounces of Fireball Whiskey into a <a href="https://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=1644822&amp;u=2324839&amp;m=28144&amp;urllink=&amp;afftrack=" rel="sponsored nofollow">rocks glass (you can personalized ones &#8211; click here!)</a>.</li><li>Add 2-3 dashes of <a href="https://amzn.to/3npshzm" rel="sponsored nofollow">Bitterman&#8217;s Burlesque Bitters</a> (You need these bitters!

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Jelly Donut</h2>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="600" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/jelly-donut.jpg" alt="Jelly Donut cocktail" class="wp-image-2361" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/jelly-donut.jpg 800w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/jelly-donut-300x225.jpg 300w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/jelly-donut-768x576.jpg 768w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/jelly-donut-150x113.jpg 150w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure></div>



<p>Jelly donuts, or sufganiyot, are a traditional Hanukkah treat. And there&#8217;s nothing wrong with starting your day with jelly donuts and a cocktail. It&#8217;s 2020.</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>Rub a glass rim with lemon juice, then roll it in powdered sugar.</li><li>Carefully place ice in the glass (I recommend <a href="https://shrsl.com/2oa7r" rel="sponsored nofollow">ice spheres made with these molds</a>). Don&#8217;t &#8220;drop&#8221; the ice in the glass &#8211; it will make the powdered sugar fly all over and fall off the rim.</li><li>Pour 2 ounces of vanilla vodka, 3/4 ounce lemon juice, and 3/4 ounce Chambord liqueur in a <a href="https://shrsl.com/2iqxn" rel="sponsored nofollow">cocktail shaker</a> with 2-3 ice cubes.</li><li>Shake until frosty, and strain into your prepared glass.</li><li>Garnish with lemon peel and raspberries.</li></ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Spinning Dreidel Hanukkah Gelt Cocktail</h2>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="600" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/gelt-cocktail2.jpg" alt="chocolate gelt cocktail" class="wp-image-2363" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/gelt-cocktail2.jpg 800w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/gelt-cocktail2-300x225.jpg 300w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/gelt-cocktail2-768x576.jpg 768w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/gelt-cocktail2-150x113.jpg 150w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure></div>



<p>This sweet concoction goes down easy and makes a lovely dessert cocktail while playing dreidel. </p>



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>Squeeze some chocolate syrup onto a plate and dip a glass in it. Roll it around to get a good amount of chocolate on there and let it drip down inside the glass. For a cleaner look, you can melt some chocolate chips in the microwave and rim the glass in the melted chocolate &#8211; this is thicker and the chocolate will harden on the glass rim instead of dripping. </li><li>In a cocktail shaker, add 1 1/2 ounces each of vanilla vodka, Rumchata, and Godiva chocolate liqueur. </li><li>Add 3-4 ice cubes and shake for about 30 seconds.</li><li>Strain into your glass and top with chocolate shavings.  </li></ul>



<p>I hope you enjoy these Hanukkah cocktails and have as much fun with them as I did. Happy Hanukkah!</p>

<p>If you&#8217;re #TeamEdward, this vampire cocktail is for you! It&#8217;s rich, balanced, and beautiful and would also be perfect for Valentine&#8217;s Day or Christmas!</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="608" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/vampire-cocktail.jpg" alt="vampire cocktail" class="wp-image-1651" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/vampire-cocktail.jpg 800w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/vampire-cocktail-300x228.jpg 300w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/vampire-cocktail-768x584.jpg 768w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/vampire-cocktail-735x559.jpg 735w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure></div>

<p>I&#8217;m a <a href="https://amzn.to/3jC5Zbz" rel="sponsored nofollow"><em>Twilight</em> fan</a>. And I&#8217;m not ashamed.</p>



<p>I was excited to get Stephanie Meyer&#8217;s brand-new book, <a rel="sponsored nofollow" href="https://amzn.to/2YWq7xk"><em>Midnight Sun</em></a>, which tells the tale of the original <em>Twilight</em> book from Edward&#8217;s perspective. Naturally, I wanted an appropriate cocktail to sip while I read.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Not Your Average Vampire&#8217;s Kiss</h2>



<p>When I searched online for vampire drink recipes, I found a lot of them called &#8220;Vampire&#8217;s Kiss.&#8221; The ingredients varied and I tried a couple of them. Chambord and champagne. Variations on a vodka cranberry. <em>Meh. </em></p>



<p>I wanted my drink to be more intense and complex. It needed to be blood-red (not pink) and it needed to include whiskey. </p>



<p>My go-to drink is a whiskey sour, so I started there and added some <a rel="sponsored nofollow" href="https://amzn.to/34TROdH">POM Wonderful pomegranate-cherry juice</a>. It was delicious, but still a little too pink and frothy from the foam. </p>



<p><em>(But if you&#8217;re a big whiskey sour fan like me, here&#8217;s that <a href="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/pomegranate-whiskey-sour/">Pomegranate Whiskey Sour recipe</a>.)</em></p>



<p>After some trial and error, I came up with an awesome recipe. I decided to call my vampire drink &#8220;#TeamEdward.&#8221; Because, <em>obviously.</em>  </p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="543" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/edward-cullen.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-1679" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/edward-cullen.jpg 800w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/edward-cullen-300x204.jpg 300w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/edward-cullen-768x521.jpg 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure></div>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How to Make a Vampire Cocktail</h2>



<p>You&#8217;ll need Chambord (black raspberry liqueur), lime juice, pomegranate juice, simple syrup, raspberries and blackberries, and a whiskey of your choice. For this recipe I used <a href="https://misunderstoodwhiskey.com/">Misunderstood&#8217;s Ginger Spiced Whiskey</a>, which I highly recommend! The ginger flavor adds a fantastic depth to this vampire drink. </p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="600" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/vampire-drink-ingredients.jpg" alt="vampire drink ingredients" class="wp-image-1653" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/vampire-drink-ingredients.jpg 800w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/vampire-drink-ingredients-300x225.jpg 300w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/vampire-drink-ingredients-768x576.jpg 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure></div>



<p>You&#8217;ll also want to make some red sugar to rim your glass. It&#8217;s so simple to make &#8211; just put a few tablespoons of white sugar in a small Ziploc bag and add a couple drops of <a href="https://amzn.to/3m9SIc6" rel="sponsored nofollow">red food coloring</a>. Knead and shake the bag until the color is absorbed and evenly distributed.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="600" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/vampire-drink-sugar.jpg" alt="red sugar in a bag" class="wp-image-1655" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/vampire-drink-sugar.jpg 800w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/vampire-drink-sugar-300x225.jpg 300w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/vampire-drink-sugar-768x576.jpg 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure></div>



<p>When your sugar is the desired color (just add more food coloring one drop at a time if you want it darker), pour it onto a plate. Rub a lime wedge around the rim of your glass, then press the glass edges into the sugar. Here&#8217;s a link to the <a href="https://amzn.to/32jvyIN" rel="sponsored nofollow">martini glass</a> I use.</p>



<p>Now it&#8217;s time to make your vampire cocktail! First, put 3 raspberries and 3 blackberries into your <a href="https://amzn.to/3k15Pul" rel="sponsored nofollow">cocktail shaker</a>. Add 1/2 ounce of <a href="https://amzn.to/3m0pHzE" rel="sponsored nofollow">simple syrup</a> and muddle gently (this is the <a href="https://amzn.to/2ZocfMn" rel="sponsored nofollow">muddler/spoon</a> I use and love!) to squish up the fruit. </p>



<p>Now add a few ice cubes, 1/2 ounce of lime juice, 1/2 ounce of Chambord, 1.5 ounces of pomegranate juice, and 2 ounces of whiskey. Shake it until the shaker is nice and frosty, then double strain into your glass. You want the drink to look smooth and not have pieces of fruit in it. </p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="600" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/vampire-drink-pour.jpg" alt="vampire drink being poured" class="wp-image-1654" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/vampire-drink-pour.jpg 800w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/vampire-drink-pour-300x225.jpg 300w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/vampire-drink-pour-768x576.jpg 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure></div>



<p>Finally, carefully place one large ice cube into the glass. I love these <a href="https://amzn.to/3ilYDsE" rel="sponsored nofollow">oversized cubes</a> &#8211; they make the drink look that much more dramatic!</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="533" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/vampire-drink-featured.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-1652" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/vampire-drink-featured.jpg 800w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/vampire-drink-featured-300x200.jpg 300w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/vampire-drink-featured-768x512.jpg 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure></div>



<p>This cocktail is so delicious. It&#8217;s just sweet enough and the various ingredients give it a lot of complexity. I hope you enjoy it while you&#8217;re reading <em>Twilight</em>, watching the movies, or enjoying another holiday with friends and loved ones. (And while you&#8217;re sipping, light one of these <a href="https://amzn.to/3ienDSw" rel="sponsored nofollow">#TeamEdward candles</a>!)</p>

<p>I came up with this Pomegranate Whiskey Sour recipe when I was trying to make a <a href="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/vampire-cocktail-team-edward/">vampire-themed cocktail</a>. This drink turned out to be a little too pink for the vampire theme, but it&#8217;s still delicious!</p>

<p>My go-to drink is the whiskey sour. Before I started this blog and started taking my home bartending skills seriously, I always made a whiskey sour with bourbon, lemon juice and simple syrup. I never used a sour mix and the idea of a raw egg white kinda grossed me out. </p>



<p>But I have evolved. </p>



<p>The first time I tried an egg white in a drink is when Naomi made me her <a href="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/pisco-sour/">Pisco Sour</a>. I loved the smooth, creaminess the egg white brought to the drink. Ever since then, I&#8217;ve been obsessed with foamy sour drinks!</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="600" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/pom-whiskey-egg.jpg" alt="egg white" class="wp-image-1665" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/pom-whiskey-egg.jpg 800w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/pom-whiskey-egg-300x225.jpg 300w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/pom-whiskey-egg-768x576.jpg 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure></div>



<p>I even did a little research and found that when egg whites are shaken thoroughly without ice, they emulsify. Agitating the whites causes their proteins to unfold and mixes in air bubbles, creating a nice foam that’s perfectly safe to drink. (Check out these other <a href="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/9-cocktail-questions-answered/">cocktail questions you&#8217;ve always wanted answered!</a>)</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Perfect Valentine&#8217;s Day Cocktail</h2>



<p>When I was working on a <a href="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/vampire-cocktail-team-edward/">vampire-themed cocktail</a> (inspired by Stephanie Meyer&#8217;s new <em>Twilight</em> book &#8211; <em><a rel="sponsored nofollow" href="https://amzn.to/3bHXSY3">Midnight Sun</a></em>), I turned first to my trusty whiskey sour. How could I make it red? And so the Pomegranate Whiskey Sour was born.</p>



<p>It&#8217;s definitely too pretty for a vampire cocktail, but its pink foaminess is just perfect for Valentine&#8217;s Day or even Christmas! To make this drink, you&#8217;ll need:</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="600" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/pom-whiskey-ingredients.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-1662" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/pom-whiskey-ingredients.jpg 800w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/pom-whiskey-ingredients-300x225.jpg 300w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/pom-whiskey-ingredients-768x576.jpg 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure></div>



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>2 oz whiskey of your choice (rye and bourbon are both types of whiskey, so they work great, too)</li><li>1/2 oz <a href="https://amzn.to/33cdqj7" rel="sponsored nofollow">fresh-squeezed</a> lemon juice</li><li>1/2 oz <a href="https://amzn.to/2GMI1MH" rel="sponsored nofollow">simple syrup</a> (or this <a href="https://amzn.to/3k3d1WU" rel="sponsored nofollow">skinny, sugar-free version</a>!)</li><li>1/2 oz <a href="https://amzn.to/2R7icbY" rel="sponsored nofollow">pomegranate juice</a></li><li>1/2 oz egg white </li></ul>



<p>Pour all the ingredients in a <a href="https://amzn.to/3k15Pul" rel="sponsored nofollow">cocktail shaker</a> and shake <em>without</em> ice. This is called a &#8220;dry shake&#8221; and it&#8217;s an important step to emulsify the egg white. </p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="600" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/pom-whiskey-ice.jpg" alt="adding ice to shaker" class="wp-image-1663" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/pom-whiskey-ice.jpg 800w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/pom-whiskey-ice-300x225.jpg 300w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/pom-whiskey-ice-768x576.jpg 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure></div>



<p>After a vigorous dry shake for 15-20 seconds, add ice and shake again for another 20-30 seconds. The outside of the shaker should be nice and frosty and your arm should be tired. 🙂 Then strain into a <a href="https://amzn.to/3ie8Ozm" rel="sponsored nofollow">coup glass</a> and let it sit for a few seconds to allow the foam to rise to the top. </p>



<p>Let&#8217;s talk a little more about that egg white. It can be difficult to measure a half-ounce of an egg white. It&#8217;s thick and not always easy to get the perfect amount. Don&#8217;t stress about it. A half ounce is typically half of an average egg white, so if you are making two whiskey sours, just put the whole egg white in. I rarely measure my egg whites anymore and it&#8217;s never made much of a difference in my drink. </p>



<p>If you really want to impress your guests &#8211; or your Valentine &#8211; garnish your sour with a pretty flower, a <a href="https://amzn.to/3igtK8S" rel="sponsored nofollow">dried rosebud</a>, a <a href="https://amzn.to/2GIhuQt" rel="sponsored nofollow">Luxardo cherry</a>, or even some <a href="https://amzn.to/35lnau1" rel="sponsored nofollow">cocktail glitter</a>!</p>

<p>I&#8217;m always looking for Fireball mixed drinks. But the sweet, hot-cinnamon taste of Fireball can be challenging to elevate and pair with other ingredients. I think I&#8217;ve come up with a winner though! If you like Fireball, you&#8217;ll love my Cinnamon Frosty.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="800" height="533" src="https://spillingtequil.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/cinnamontoast-featured.jpg" alt="Fireball mixed drink" class="wp-image-1569" srcset="https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/cinnamontoast-featured.jpg 800w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/cinnamontoast-featured-300x200.jpg 300w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/cinnamontoast-featured-768x512.jpg 768w, https://spillingtequila.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/cinnamontoast-featured-735x490.jpg 735w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure></div>



<p>Fireball is the bullied younger brother of whiskies. It&#8217;s super sweet and most often associated with college students and Jell-o shots. Fireball is the whisky you drink when you know nothing about whisky. It&#8217;s known as a cheap, syrupy, embarrassment to alcohol. </p>



<p>And yet, many people &#8211; including me! &#8211; love it. </p>



<p>But how do you drink it? Sure, it&#8217;s great as a shot. And if you really like sweet drinks, Fireball is also terrific with ginger ale as a mixed drink. But I wanted to bring a little sophistication to Fireball with this holiday-themed cocktail. </p>

<p>The first time I had Fireball whisky and RumChata was at a bar in Florida. It was called a &#8220;Cinnamon Toast Crunch&#8221; and it was served as a shot. That shot is the basis for this cocktail. I wanted to build upon the creaminess of the shot and turn it into a frosty, legit Fireball mixed drink. </p>

<p>This drink is quick and easy to make. Just pour 2 ounces of RumChata, 2 ounces of Fireball Whisky, and 3 ounces of coconut milk in a <a href="https://amzn.to/2XbqRh8" rel="sponsored nofollow">cocktail shaker</a> over some ice. </p>



<p>Strain it into a <a href="https://amzn.to/30WCEkh" rel="sponsored nofollow">coupe glass</a> &#8211; another way to elevate a drink is to serve it in a pretty glass! You could also serve it over fresh ice in a rocks glass. Garnish with a <a href="https://amzn.to/2PjkZhz" rel="sponsored nofollow">star anise</a> or cinnamon stick. You could even grate a little fresh cinnamon on top. </p>

<p>Another way to serve this drink? As a milkshake! Mix Fireball, RumChata, coconut milk, and vanilla or coconut  ice cream in a blender and enjoy!</p>
