Christmas-y cocktails

dublintomadras

I'm hosting our December book club and although we usually drink wine, I'd also like to have a Christmas-y cocktail on hand.  I'm not a fan of eggnog and I've done spiked hot cider before.  I'm looking for something a little different, maybe cranberry-ish, orange-y or minty that can made in a pitcher ahead of time.  Thanks in advance!

Make a cranberry mimosa...cranberry juice instead of orange juice and float whole cranberries in it.

I might be a little late, but this is one that I've made in the past. Sorry I don't have a real recipe. But it's called a Holly Berry. It's champagne with Goldschlager and two Red Hots dropped in the bottom. It's really good and so pretty. HTH!

I did Cosmo's served in Martini glasses with green rimming sugar.  They looked really festive! You could have the vodka and cranberry juice mixed already with some triple sec and lime juice and have the glasses out already rimmed with sugar.  Then it would be easy for people to make their own.
