Tis the season for lots of holiday recipes! Themed cocktails are one of my favorite things to whip up for any holiday party. Today I’m sharing this yummy Blitzen Blizzard Cocktail that you can make in batches as well as a mocktail version by omitting the alcohol. Serve this at your upcoming Christmas party like I did at my Gift Wrapping Party.
