Drin(k)spiration for the holiday season

Chai Latte
«Is there anything that smells more like Christmas than a chai latte? When the scent of cinnamon, vanilla and anise is in the air, wrapping and unwrapping presents is twice as much fun. With this recipe even Santa Claus will stay for a cup of tea.»

Hot Toddy
«Hot toddy is often prepared with whiskey (I recommend Markers Mark) - but that was not always the case. The classic recipe for a hot toddy does well without alcohol and is just as soothing for colds, sniffles and coughs as the whiskey version. Tip: For a vegan hot toddy, replace honey with beet syrup.»

Winter Mojito
«The orange and fig mojito is my favorite winter drink. My friends and I made it for the first time at our last New Year's Eve party. I'm impressed with the fruity flavor and I think it is a very nice alternative. Moreover, I've been told that the drink tastes great as a mocktail.»
