The holiday season, as it coincides with the cold and frizzy weather, calls upon the invasion of cocktails and warm drinks to soothe the chilly soul.

However, amid the ongoing night curfew in Maharashtra and new set of restrictions in other places amid the new strain of COVID-19, it is highly recommended, one stays at home to make the best of Christmas this year.

If you've outgrown the usual eggnog and rum, whip up these quicky and easy cocktail concoctions at home.

Keep it bright and relaxing with this bubbly gin-fizz with a twist of cranberry.

The only thing this rum-based cocktail wants is a crisp, crunchy gingerbread cookie.

Hot cocoa—the sweetest winter candy of them all—gets a serious update to this enjoyable recipe. Cinnamon sticks add a spicy hop, bourbon adds pleasure, and dulce de leche adds some smooth consistency.

A simple syrup made with orange and thyme infusions brings a bit of seasonal flavour to this classic.

You might be cynical about combining tequila, coconut rum and coconut milk together, but this snowy take on a margarita looks like exactly what your Christmas party wants!

Not all Christmas drinks have to be creamy, and this light, refreshing citrus drink is proof of that!

You can change up this classy-looking twist of Manhattan ahead of time, so all you've got to do on Christmas Day is serve it up!

Anything about this drink says Christmas, from the deep red colour to the delicious candy cane.

It's not Christmas without at least one lot of mulled wine. Lucky for you, this simple recipe couldn't have been easier: just mix a bottle of red wine with some wintery herbs, brandy, honey and orange slices, then simmer—and prepare for a tasty dinner.

Finish each bottle with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkling of cinnamon.
