Embracing the Winter Season: Crafting Christmas Magic in a Glass

As the snowflakes find their way down and you hear the jingle bells start to chime, it’s that time of the year again! Get ready to sip, stir and celebrate in the holiday cheer because we’re jumping headfirst into the holiday spirit here at Klaris and what better way to celebrate than with a Klaris-approved crafted christmas cocktail?

From Timeless classics to innovative mixes, our Crafters have infused the true essence of Christmas into each recipe just for you! To start us off with @thehousemouse, who is one of our most dynamic crafters did us the favor of sharing her childhood love for oranges and created the cocktail......

                                     An Orange a Day

For our next craft of magic in a glass, we have a special recipe for our non-alcoholic enthusiasts made by @Zachrjohnston, a crafter whose work speaks for itself! This White cuban, similar to a White Russian is made with Non Alcoholic Rum instead of vodka. This also covers that caffeine kick for your day!
