It is pretty easy to decide if something is a summer cocktail – usually icy, fruity, tropical and refreshing. And fall drinks are all about pumpkin spice, apples and maybe a hint of warmth. But what about winter cocktails?

What makes a drink good for winter?

Winter cocktails seem to fit into one of four categories:

  • Hot drinks, or ones that make you feel nice and warm inside like a Hot Toddy or a drink with Fireball Whiskey
  • Holiday drinks themed for Christmas or New Year’s Eve, like a Mistletoe Mule or Gingerbread Eggnog
  • Wintery named drinks like a Dirty Snowman or Snowflake Martini
  • Drinks featuring seasonal fruits like pomegranate, cranberry and grapefruit

With these requirements in mind, I’ve collected 30+ winter cocktails for you to review, make and enjoy. Go ahead and scroll down. You’ll be warmed up in no time!
