Cinnamon, cardamom, and cloves are some of the secrets to this red wine’s perfect-for-winter flavor. The other secret? The fact that it’s served warm.

Chartreuse Punch

Believe it or not, this punch is based on a liqueur that French monks have been distilling for centuries. Chartreuse is made from more than 130 herbs; you could claim this punch will help you (and your guests) fend off winter flus and colds.

Pineapple juice, lime, and rum take taste buds to the tropics. A hint of cinnamon spices things up and keeps this punch true to the season.

Who said sangria is just for summer? Give this favorite a winter spin; our recipe features apple as well as citrus, and warming brandy along with red wine. We think it should be a year-round staple.

A little simple syrup sweetens this vodka-based punch and balances out the tart flavors of pomegranate and cranberry. It would be a super festive addition to any holiday menu.

Mulled Cranberry Cocktail

View Recipe this link opens in a new tab

Skip the tea with dessert and treat party guests to post-dinner cocktails. Double -- or triple -- this recipe; make it ahead and reheat just before serving. It's sweet enough to serve as dessert, but don’t let that deter you from serving pie and cookies, too!

A holiday party without eggnog is, well, not really a holiday party at all, is it? Put a fresh twist on this classic by making a batch of chocolate 'nog. Our recipe has a rich Mexican slant; the creamy cocoa cocktail is spiced with a little chile. Ready for more? Don't miss the rest of our holiday eggnog recipes.

Coquito

View Recipe this link opens in a new tab

This creamy cocktail pairs rum with coconut milk, evaporated milk, and cream of coconut for a combination guests will find satisfyingly rich (but not so rich that they won't be tempted to help themselves to a second glass).
