Gingerbread Martini
If you’d rather enjoy a Christmas cocktail instead of dessert after a big holiday meal, try this gingerbread martini. It’s made with just four simple ingredients in equal parts: vodka, crème de cacao, homemade gingerbread syrup, and half-and-half. Shake everything together until creamy and frothy! Garnish each martini with a dollop of whipped cream and pair it with a freshly baked gingerbread cookie for a festive holiday treat. If you’re hosting a crowd, you can quickly whip up multiple batches in just minutes!
