Aside from all of the delicious meals and decorating, one of the best parts about the upcoming holidays is actually getting to celebrate them with the people you love. When it comes to getting into the holiday spirit, cakes and cookies are nice, but many of us can agree that drinking is better. We at Her Campus like to kick back and enjoy some festive holiday cocktails that are sure to brighten up both your bar and your evening. Perfect for any gathering, here are some wintery recipes to get anyone into the spirit of the holidays.
