Holiday Refreshments

11/2/2018

I don’t know about you, but when I host for the holidays people come over throughout the day up until the meal.  They munch on all my Starters & Snacks, while they smell all that food cooking.  And they need/want fun drinks and refreshments.  Here are a few of my favorites, both adult & kid friendly.   Let's start with the family friendly option. 
Harvest Punch
You'll Need: 
  • 4 cups Apple Cider
  • 2 cups Pineapple Juice or Cranberry Juice (depending on what you like)
  • 2 cup Orange Juice
  • 1 bottle Cranberry Ginger Ale or other soda
  • 4 drops Orange Vitality
  • 2 drop Lemon Vitality
  • Garnish: Orange & Apple Slices & Cinnamon Stick
  1. In a pitcher or large bowl, pour in apple cider, Pineapple or Cranberry, Orange Juice & Cranberry Ginger Ale.
  2. Slice oranges & Apples and place vitality oils on the slices.  Add slices to pitcher and stir.
  3. Serve with orange slices & cinnamon sticks 
This is Harvest Punch is a fun way to add a little fizz and tang to cider. And again, make it all grown up with a little something extra, even better let people add their own by setting up a mini bar station right near the drink dispenser. Who doesn't like to have options?

Spiced Cider is a super easy classic.  Like so easy you aren’t really even working, but it looks and tastes like you did!  Plus, kick it up for adults by adding a little vodka, rum, or liquor.  Or keep it family friendly by setting up those options for your guests to choose their add in.
Spiced Apple Cider
You'll Need: 
  • 3 quarts Apple Cider
  • 8 drops Orange Vitality
  • 4 drops Clove Vitality
  • 3 drops Cinnamon Bark Vitality
  • 2 drops Nutmeg Vitality
  • 1 drop Lemon Vitality
  • Garnish: Orange Slice & Cinnamon Stick
 
  1. In a pitcher, pour in apple cider.
  2. Slice oranges and place vitality oils on the slices.  
  3. Add slices to pitcher, and stir
  4. Serve with orange slices & cinnamon sticks

Change it up and make this a warm beverage by making it in a crockpot or stockpot and adding it to a Coffee Carafe to keep it nice and toasty.

Now this one is just for the adults, and wow is it an awesome add to any holiday party!  Who doesn’t love wine, I know I do!! And now wine feels like it’s got a seasonal twist, with this great Mulled Wine recipe. Does your family have an adult beverage of choice for the holidays?  If not you do now!

Last but not least, don't forget to give your guests a palette refreshing options.  With all the rich flavors of the holidays, a citrus infused water option is a must.  I like to make up 2-3 pitchers of infused waters for my guests to try.  

You'll Need: 
  • Lemon, Orange, Lime, and/or Grapefruit Slices
  • 1-2 drops of any coordinating Citrus Vitality oil or Citrus Fresh Vitality

  1. Wash the citrus fruit with Thieves Fruit & Veggie wash to remove any harmful impurities.
  2. Slice up the fruit.
  3. Place the 1-2 drops Vitality oil on the sliced fruit.
  4. Serve with the oil bottles next to the pitchers to let your guests know why their H20 is so amazing!
