As temps drop and winter sets in, there’s no better time to swap out your spritz for something a little more soul-warming. From smoky mixes to mulled wine and coffee hits, these winter cocktails are bringing the heat. Here are seven sips worth bundling up for.
Biscoff Espresso Martini – The Jetty
Cold weather calls for caffeine and cocktails. A sweet and creamy fusion of Biscoff, espresso and Vanishing Point Vodka, this one’s a rich, indulgent twist on the classic espresso martini. Dessert and cocktail in one glorious hit.
Pantera Rosa – Popolo
Sweet, floral and just the right amount of fancy, this mix of pomegranate vodka, apple, lime, rose and rhubarb bitters is basically a bouquet in a glass.
Mulled Wine – Ole
Okay, it’s not technically a cocktail, but it deserves a spot on your winter sip list. Ole’s mulled wine brings all the seasonal spice and soul-hugging warmth you want in a cosy drink. Sip it slow and feel the chill melt away.
Peruvian Pico Sour – Calida
Pisco lovers, this one’s for you. A citrusy, frothy combo of Santiago Quebranta pisco, lime, whites, sugar and aromatic bitters that’ll transport you straight to Lima.
The Honey Bandit – OTTO
Decadent and dangerously smooth, this cocktail blends Don Julio blanco tequila, honey, Lillet Blanc, Frangelico and milk punch into one deliciously sippable treat.
Smokey Pina – Poca Madre
Think tropical but make it winter. This mix of mezcal, Cointreau, pineapple, lime, caramel and charred pineapple hits all the right notes, finished with a sea salt rim.
