If you are hosting a dinner, the first thing that should happen when a guest walks in is to offer them a beverage.

While Thanksgiving dinner in my house is typically served with wine, I LOVE to offer a welcome cocktail to get guests into the spirit of things. It's a great way to surprise and delight your guests from the get go.

This recipe has an option for with and without alcohol so everyone can get in on the fun. I love making a batch cocktail that can be prepped in advance and is super simple to serve while still being able to offer something fun and unique.
