Starbucks had it right when they created their holiday line of sweet coffee treats, pumpkin, gingerbread, and eggnog lattes. Here we have taken this idea one step further to create an even jollier approach these festive drinks by making them into cocktails!
What better way to add zest and pizzazz to your holiday celebrations and parties than to recreate these treats in a spiked fashion! These cocktails are a particularly great way to fancy it up for your guests.
Pumpkin Pie Martini
