Essentials for Festive Entertaining

Here’s your ultimate guide to creating a festive, Instagram-worthy setup that’s ready to impress your guests and keep the drinks flowing.

Holiday Bar Cart

Spirits to Stock

Start with the basics. Every holiday bar cart should include a few versatile spirits. Here are our top picks:

  • Vodka – Perfect for everything from holiday mules to fruity spritzers.
  • Bourbon – A must for Old Fashioneds and cozy holiday sips.
  • Tequila – Ideal for mixing up seasonal margaritas.
  • Gin – Adds a botanical twist to classic cocktails and pairs well with festive garnishes.

Citrus for a Fresh Kick

Don’t underestimate the power of fresh citrus. Lemons, limes, and oranges are essential for holiday cocktails. Keep a bowl of them on your bar cart for garnishing drinks or squeezing fresh juice. The tangy flavors of citrus help balance the sweetness of holiday syrups and spirits.

Festive Garnishes

Add a little holiday cheer with garnishes. Think fresh mint sprigs, cranberries, cinnamon sticks, and rosemary sprigs. These little touches not only enhance the flavor but also give your cocktails a festive, Pinterest-worthy look,

Sparkling Water

No bar cart is complete without sparkling water. It’s perfect for adding a bit of fizz to any drink and making light, refreshing spritzers. Choose a high-quality option to keep your cocktails crisp and bubbly.
