Picky Pair: Holiday Cocktail

The start of the Holiday Season has begun and with it the Parties! We are always looking for a fun and delicious "signature" drink for each party we are associated with. It is important to make sure you offer something that can be made for everyone. Here is a fun and festive drink that is sure to please the children as well as the adults looking for a little holiday cheer!

CHEERS!!!
{My {PP} is hosting her husband's Architectural firm's Holiday Party this weekend, with the cold weather and a cozy fire I'm sure something similar to this delicious treat {where children will be attending} will be served!!!}

This Peppermint Patty “hot toddy” from the Winter 2008 issue of The Nest looks absolutely de-lish! Perfect holiday “dessert cocktail” or signature drink idea for home parties like ornament/cookie exchanges.
