Ok guys this post is mixing 2 of my very, VERY favourite things, Christmas (because I'm a huge kid at
heart) and Red Wine! I don't think it will be news to you all that I love myself a glass, or 3 (don't judge), of red wine. With this being said here we have one of the most traditional
holiday cocktails around; mulled wine. And for our non-alcoholic option we have a Hot Apple Cider. Check back on Christmas Eve for our Holiday Cocktails Part #2!
