Kids always get the short end of the stick when it comes to holiday celebrations and their dictated beverage options. This year, let\u2019s lay off the juice boxes and multi-million-dollar cider companies.<\/p>\n<p>Personally, I like to break out Bordeaux, nice Scotch and Champagne around the holidays so let\u2019s try using that creative energy for those beverage-suppressed tots instead!<\/p>\n<p>Try these recipes and have them join in the fun! Tinker with the proportions in the recipe prior to shaking and have fun finding what you both think tastes best. You can buy all of this stuff online or even in local stores like BevMo \u2026<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Fancy Shirley Temple \u2013 Buy Ginger Beer, cook down pomegranate seeds in sugar after smashing them a bit to make your own grenadine, and add real Luxardo Maraschino Cherries. Pour the ginger beer over rocks and add the grenadine and cherries.<\/li>\n<li>Hawaiian Holidays \u2013 Take fresh pineapple and muddle it in a shaker, add a little mango puree, coconut water and some Angostura Bitters. Shake well and serve over rocks.<\/li>\n<li>Mama\u2019s Fizz \u2013 Take orange flower water, powdered sugar, fresh pressed lemon juice, and an egg white. Shake heavily in a shaker without ice, first. Then add some ice and shake again. Pour over ice in a tall glass.<\/li>\n<li>Kid Bond \u2013 Take sugar and dissolve in simmering water with juniper berries, coriander seeds, and dried orange peels. Shake that mixture with white cranberry juice and orange bitters. Garnish with an olive on a pick in a martini glass.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>P.S. All of these drinks are takes on classic adult cocktails and with a splash of your favorite liquor will work great for the big kids too!
