What are the most popular Thanksgiving cocktails and drinks

The turkey is the main event, but many families celebrate Thanksgiving toasting with their favorite holiday cocktails and drinks.

Update:
Surprising alternative ways to cook your Thanksgiving turkey

It would not be Thanksgiving for many without Martinelli’s Sparking Apple Cider... a holiday classic that the entire family can enjoy. Over the years, the company has expanded its flavors to include grape and pear as well as the classic apple.

For those twenty-one and older, Martinelli’s has some ideas of how to spice up their classic ciders.

By combining maple syrup, apple juice, dark rum, and ginger beer, you can celebrate Thanksgiving this year with an Apple Dark n’ Stormy.

For those looking for a more traditional “spiked cider” recipe, a favorite comes from Joy Health Eats, whose holiday formula is sure to keep the adult’s table happy... with anise and cloves, this recipe is sure to keep your senses tingling.

A mix of fall flavors

Many Thanksgiving cocktails also take inspiration from another fall favorite: pumpkin spice.

Delish offers well-rated options. The first is a “Drunken Pumpkin Latte,” which mixes RumChata and Pumpkin Spice Vodka with a traditional PSL. The second is a Pumpkin Spice White Russian, similar to the former drink but does not include coffee. Unlike the other recipe, this one uses regular vodka and Kahlua for its flavor.

A dash of cranberry...

Another big flavor present at Thanksgiving that mixes well with alcohol is cranberry. One easy option would be a vodka cranberry, but for those looking for a more complicated cocktail, we have you covered.

A Couple Cooks has a great recipe for a Cranberry Bourbon Cocktail that seems to be a fan favorite. Unlike the two above, these are vegan and trade vodka for vermouth and bourbon, bringing entirely different flavors to the forefront.

Another option is a Cranberry Martini, which brings the vodka back into the picture... combining the classic liquor with Cointreau and a good shake to create the perfect holiday drink.
