During the holiday season, whilst spending vast stretches of uninterrupted quality time with your family, a cocktail is probably in order. Enter the Cranberry-Ginger Champagne Cocktail. This beauty will be the sparkling jewel of your next holiday party. It is another one of those dump-everything-into-your-largest-stock-pot situations. Then people serve themselves. This is a low impact cocktail as the booze to other things ratio is low. You can increase the ratio, but my family fights enough before cocktail hour and I don't want to add too much danger to the mix. This cocktail is also very pretty, which is appropriate because if I am going to go to all the trouble of dolling myself up for a holiday party, I want my drinks to be equaly as dressed up as I am, thank you very much.
