Recipes entered into the Heering Cherry Christmas Cocktail Competition

Sleighwrecked

My love of tropical rum drinks and the fruit of the season - cranberry.

Delish and too good not to share. You could swap for Gingerbread Syrup for Cinnamon Syrup. You could also use chocolate or orange bitters. Cool use for

Nakatomi Plaza

Frosted Cherry Cha-Cha

I wanted to create a festive cocktail my friends and family could enjoy representing the spice and flavors of the holiday season. To me, that means pie

Chocolate Cherry Manhattan

Stir all ingredients over ice for 20-30 seconds.

This is a booze forward cocktail so proper dilution is key.

McGarry

Based on the Vanessa Polk, which I submitted to the Guide last year. (The name refers to the barman of the Drones Club in P. G. Wodehouse.)

'Twas The Night

A very pleasant treat of a cocktail! Cherry, chocolate and a hint of mint work very well with the warm spice and light smoke from the bourbon.

Saturnalia

Desserty top notes of cherry and vanilla that give way to astringent and citrucy middle without ending either too sweet or too dry. Well-balanced.

Festive Bakewell Sour

Combine all ingredients in an ice filled shaker and shake until well chilled. Discard the ice and then dry shake for 10-15 seconds and fine strain into

2,5-7,5 ml lime juice depending on the sweetness of your orange juice (and your taste). In addition, the style/perception of the cocktail changes a lot

Sweet flavour of cherry intertwined with the herbal undertones of sage and Chartreuse, made festive with champagne.
