‘Tis the season for festive fun and tasty cocktails. And more cocktails. With all the holiday parties to attend – and host – we were in search of a few drink options that were better for our bodies but didn’t compromise flavor. We whipped up three healthy holiday cocktails recipes that contain all of the good cheer and none of the guilt. We’ll toast to that.

The ingredients in the Sleigh My Name holiday cocktail laid out.

Sleigh My Name

Ingredients

Serves 4.

  • 8 oz vodka

  • 16 oz natural cane sugar

  • 6-7 cinnamon sticks

  • The Pipe Cleaner: Two cups of organic apple juice, one cup of raw ginger juice and three organic lemons

  • ice

Preparation

  • Bring the sugar and cinnamon sticks to a boil over medium heat to make a syrup. Reduce heat to medium-low and let simmer for 8-10 minutes until sugar has dissolved, stirring frequently. Remove from heat and let cool.

  • Once the syrup has cooled (you can ever let it sit overnight), pour one cup into a pitcher.

  • Add the vodka and The Pipe Cleaner (or alternative mixture).

  • Stir thoroughly!

  • Add ice to individual glasses and pour.
