Flavorful Dry January Cocktails That Go Far Beyond a New Year's Resolution
From nostalgic drinks in a dim cocktail lounge in the Lower East Side to sipping my way through a medley of holiday cocktails, I had quite the LUSHWORTHY 2025. So, let’s just say that I’m welcoming Dry January with extremely open arms this month. In fact, I don’t plan on taking my next boozy sip until Super Bowl (February 8). I’d normally say wish me luck, but with non-alcoholic drinks these days that are as intricate as they are tasty, I don’t think I’ll need much luck this Dry January.
Grey Goose’s Lemon Ace Is the Effortlessly Chic Sip We’ll Be Sipping During the Australian Open
What I wouldn't give to be packing my outfits for the Australian Open taking place in Melbourne next month. Thankfully though, if you're like me there is a way for us all to get in on the Aussie action without searching for our passports. And no, it doesn't involve breaking out your old tennis racket and that tennis skirt you bought on Amazon last spring.
As we countdown the days until the start of the Australian Open, which will take place from January 12 - February 1, Grey Goose has created a tennis-inspired cocktail that’s described as being “perfect for both armchair travelers and courtside dreamers.”
15 Holiday Cocktails That Go Way Harder Than Your Elf On The Shelf
Holiday cocktails are by far my favorite genre of seasonal sips. As much as I love a ghoulish martini on Halloween or a romantic dessert cocktail on Valentine’s Day, holiday drinks are where it’s at. And by “holiday,” I pretty much mean all the weeks in between November 1 and about mid-January. So she is a lengthy season to say the last.
With many holiday parties only days away, I’ve already had friends hit me up about cocktail recommendations. The great thing about this time of year is that the options really are endless. You can go full-on fruity with a boozy punch, get decadent with a dessert inspired-sip or keep it classy with a festive twist on a classic cocktail.
The Coziest Boozy Hot Chocolate Ever—And The Ingredient You’d Never Expect
Who doesn’t love a boozy hot chocolate? Whether you’re camping with friends or “roughing it” in the backyard with a good book and your favorite blanket, it’s the perfect treat to cozy up to. What I love about boozy hot chocolate is that there are so many different ways to customize the drink depending on what you like. Want a hot chocolate that’s more decadent? You can opt for a cream liqueur. Want to up the booze factor? Simply swap liqueurs for a dark rum of whiskey.
Thanksgiving Cocktails So Good They’ll Make You Forget About The Mac And Cheese
If your favorite Thanksgiving side dish is an Espresso Martini, then I think we’re meant to be real good friends. Seriously though, so much time is spent on Thanksgiving side dishes, desserts and mains, that cocktails get put on the back burner (right next to that pot of burnt rice). Trust me, your guests are going to want to have something delightful to sip on before, during and after dinner. And honestly, as long as you’ve got the right ingredients, crafting a cocktail that’ll have your guests raving into the new year, is pretty simple.
Delicious Friendsgiving Cocktails That’ll Keep The Gratitude And The Good Vibes Flowing
Can I make a confession? Okay, here goes…I like Friendsgiving wayyy more than I do Thanksgiving. I have so much fun when my friends host Friendsgiving. It’s always a great vibe. The food is a hit. Drinks are on point. And there’s always a bunch of crazy games to keep the fun going late into the evening. And while I love a traditional Thanksgiving meal, Friendsgiving also opens the door to different kinds of cuisine. For instance, one year, my friend and I hosted Phosgiving. We had pho, and other Asian-inspired bites. Needless to say, it was a hit. And the possibilities really are endless—brunch, pizza party, martini hour…go crazy.
From Apple Cider Margaritas To Campfire Old Fashioneds, These Are Fall’s Coziest Cocktails
Does anyone else feel like October absolutely zoomed by? As the official start to fall (and my birthday month!), October is easily my favorite time of year. The heat and humidity are finally out the door, and all my fall faves like apple cider margaritas, boozy hot chocolate and mulled wine finally start to show themselves once again. Although we’re already chucking the deuces to October, I just want to offer a friendly reminder that fall doesn’t end until December 21. With that being said, we’ve still got plenty of time to indulge in our favorite seasonal sips. I even plan on making myself some mulled wine for Sunday Night Football this weekend!
Toast To Paradise With These ‘The White Lotus’ Inspired Cocktails
I don’t know about you all, but I’m sooo excited to take a trip to the beautiful beaches of Thailand as part of season three of The White Lotus. I traveled to Phuket years ago and absolutely loved it. And now, Koh Samui, where The White Lotus was filmed, is absolutely on my list. But in the meantime, I’ll be cozied up to my TV this Sunday eagerly waiting for the season premiere of the dark comedy.
And since a White Lotus-inspired cocktail is a must for the big night, Ketel One Vodka and Tanqueray Gin have teamed up with Max and HBO to create a pair of speciality cocktails, along with limited-edition cocktail kits.

To help make your celebration as seamless as possible (because you deserve!), I’ve compiled a list of 13 of my favorite Valentine’s Day cocktails. I included a bit of everything too! There are a few clever variations on the Espresso Martini, some celebratory bubbles, and cocktails that use romantic ingredients like rose water and chocolate bitters.

Cold Weather Cocktails Guaranteed To Keep You Warm & Cozy This Season
If you’re ready to swap your Jalapeno Margarita for a Hot Toddy, now is the perfect time. As the weather changes, so does our palate. Gone is the desire for that fruity rum cocktail that transports you to the tropics. In its place is the longing for a toasty libation you can cozy up to your fireplace and a good book with.
I’ll be the first to admit that creating a hot cocktail can be a bit tricky if you’re new to it. Lucky for us, the folks at Dewar’s, Teeling, and Aviation Gin have whipped up some delectable cocktails you can easily recreate at home. What I love most about these winter-friendly cocktails is that they’re not made with a bunch of sugary mixers and other not-so-good-for-you additions. Instead, you’ll need ingredients like maple syrup, fresh lemon juice, and honey syrup.
