BEIJOS COCKTAIL | DECEMBER 14, 2023
holiday cheer.
Earlier this month, I found these adorable nostalgic vintage candy ribbons at the store. I immediately grabbed them thinking to myself, I can totally do something cute for the holidays with these. Listening to holiday music, puts you into the old school vibe when all the classic Christmas songs were made. So we are playing off that today with a lovely peppermint candy ribbon cocktail. Simple and classic for you to serve up the next couple weeks. This cocktail has all the cheer with classic flavors of peppermint, vanilla, and creme de cacoa. Serve with crushed up peppermint candy and lets say cheers to the holidays!
