Every year I love to share a new Christmas Cocktail Recipe. For 2023 I made a Mistletoe Margarita Christmas Cocktail at my friend’s house and it was SO delicious!
Mistletoe Margarita Christmas Cocktail Recipe
These measurements are for two but I multiplied them and made a jug at the start of the night which lasted the evening. It’s a real time saver if you’re hosting so I’d highly recommend.
- 6 shots of cranberry juice
- 2 shots of fresh lime juice (I started with fresh limes but ran out of steam so cheated with half fresh, half bottled lime juice!)
- 2 shots of tequila (we used white tequila)
- 1.5 shots of Cointreau
- Fresh cranberries, lime wedges and rosemary to garnish (we added mini candy canes and pomegranate seeds too!)
- Salt for the rim of the glasses
- Ice
Salt the rims of your glasses and add ice, then simply mix everything together in a jug, pour into the glasses and garnish!
Serving them in Style
My own collection of homeware includes marble, wood and rattan trays that will bring style to the drinks you serve, as well as offering unique and timeless gift ideas for hosts.

The viral snow globe cocktail with rosemary Christmas tree
My friend made the viral snow globe Christmas cocktail with rosemary Christmas tree when we hosted a festive gathering and they turned out so good I wanted to share these with you too.
You’ll need clear glasses for the best effect, and ones which will fit in your freezer!
She poured some water in the bottom and placed a short sprig of rosemary (upside down) inside it. You can tie string to the rosemary and tape to the sides of the glass if you’d like to be precise, but she didn’t actually do this and simply placed them in the freezer until frozen.
We made gin and tonics (with Meditteranean tonic to match the Rosemary) but they’d be just as impressive with non-alcoholic cocktail options for the whole family too.
Mocktails

An idea for the kids is to fill a plastic champagne flute with Schloer or similar and then top it off with snowy white candy floss and mini candy canes. Our girls LOVE it!
I hope my Mistletoe Margarita Christmas Cocktail Recipe and other ideas have given you some inspiration (I’d love you to tag me @ohsokel on Instagram if you make any of them) and may I wish you a very Merry Christmas!
Until next time,
Kel
