Five Warm Cocktails You Need in Your Life This Winter

Rachel
Hot Toddy Recipe

When the crazy cold winter comes around, sometimes only a hot cocktail can warm the soul. And there’s a different kind of buzz you get from a piping hot boozy bevy – it’s like you can feel the alcohol warm your whole body bit by bit. This is literally why après ski became a thing (just kidding, we have no idea – but it seems likely, right?).

We’re Canadian, so you better believe we’ve amassed an arsenal of hot cocktail recipes to share with you. Here’s a rundown of five of our faves.


Hot Toddy Recipe

Hot Toddy

This cocktail is a classic for a reason. It’s simple to make – you just need whisky, lemon juice, honey and boiling water – and also great for when you’re feeling under the weather. Check out our Hot Toddy post to learn why.

Perfect for: après ski, when you’ve got a raging cold or flu, just because

Mulled Wine Recipe

Mulled Wine

Yes, mulled wine is a classic Christmas cocktail, and we appreciate it – so much that we start drinking it immediately after Halloween (same, right?). We got the recipe of all recipes, because trial and error. Grab it here.

Perfect for: the holidays, serving a large group (crockpot to the rescue), watching Netflix by yourself

Apple Cider Recipe

Boozy Hot Apple Cider

This is the official hot cocktail to usher in the cold season. It’s such a great combo of sweet and spicy, plus it’s a total crowd-pleaser. I don’t know anyone who doesn’t like apple cider (and if they don’t then why are you friends with them?). Get our recipe here.

Perfect for: when it’s just starting to get cold, Thanksgiving, cheesy fall-themed dates (post tractor ride hand-holding)

Blueberry Tea Cocktail Recipe

Blueberry Tea

Spoiler alert: there are no blueberries in this bad boy. If you’ve never heard of Blueberry Tea we’ll fill you in on what this cocktail is all about. It’s a simple cocktail, calling only for Amaretto, Grand Marnier and Earl Grey Tea. It’s super easy to make at home. You can grab the recipe here.

Perfect for: dessert, getting cozy AF on the couch, impressing people with how sophisticated you are

Hot Chocolate

Spiked Hot Chocolate

This cocktail totally takes us back to being a kid again. It’s sweet, over the top and you can throw it in a thermos for easy, sneaky  drinking. Plus, we put a Canadian twist on ours. Intrigued? Learn our secret here.

Perfect for: post-tobogganing (or any winter activity you’re too old for), Christmas Eve, gaining weight (I’ll have extra marshmallows please, gotta live your life)
