As we count down the days to Christmas, it's time to get into the festive spirit with some holiday-themed cocktails. On this 21st day of December, we bring you a holiday spin on a classic cocktail. The traditional Silk Stocking cocktail gets a Christmas makeover in this recipe, and it's ideal for anyone who relishes a good tequila drink. Its robust tequila flavor is coupled with a creamy, silky texture, making it a must-have for your holiday celebrations.


So, let's get our Christmas vibes on with the Christmas Silk Stocking cocktail. Here's how you can create this delightful concoction.


The Christmas Silk Stocking

  • 1 1/2 - 2 oz Tequila (depends on how strong you want to make it)

  • 3/4 oz white creme de cacao

  • 3/4 oz cranberry juice

  • 1/2 oz simple syrup

  • 3/4 oz half & half

  • Hershey's candy kiss and grater for chocolate shaving garnish

Directions

Start by placing your glass in the freezer to chill (a Nick & Nora glass is recommended). While the glass is chilling, take your cocktail shaker and pour in your tequila, creme de cacao, cranberry juice, simple syrup, and half & half. Add ice and shake the mixture well.

Once your glass is sufficiently chilled, remove it from the freezer. Double strain your shaken cocktail mixture into the glass. For the final touch, garnish the cocktail with shavings of Hershey's chocolate.
