Christmas Old Fashioned

Cold weather calls for the warmest of cocktails and I one of my favorites is a Christmas Old Fashioned. Hints of orange, cinnamon, dark cherry and of course Bourbon. 

Christmas Old Fashioned Recipe

I love sipping on a good Old Fashioned, especially in the colder months! We make a delicious chocolate old fashioned in October and this is my favorite version for the holidays. It starts with my Old Fashioned Mix which I steep with lots of cinnamon, fresh oranges, muddled cherries and orange bitters.

The best part of the mix is, it makes enough to keep one jar for yourself and gift one to a friend who loves cocktails too! I highly recommend it.
