Description
This Mrs. Claus cocktail cranberry whiskey cocktail is filled with things that make me envision what Mrs. Claus would drink. This is her cocktail, like margaritas are my cocktail. It’s a sweet, tarty, spicy and very colorful! This easy Christmas cocktail is a blend of cranberry juice, whiskey, cinnamon sticks and more!
