A complete guide to traditional Christmas drinks

Ah! Welcome, friends, to the most illustrious guide to Christmas drinks you never knew you needed – but most certainly do. The drinks that’ve been swirled, mulled, and guzzled through centuries of holiday cheer. Why do we drink these festive concoctions during Christmas? Come closer and I’ll tell you. It’s a tale as old as time… or at least as old as Great Aunt Edna’s sherry habit. Grab a glass, let’s begin.
