Holiday Wish

A closeup of a Savory, Winter Holiday Wish drink against a dark background.

The winter holidays are an exciting, joyful time — but they can also be a little overwhelming and stressful. When you get the chance to kick back and relax, you want a no-fuss drink that’s both easy to make and delicious. Well, we’re here to grant your Holiday Wish. For this seasonal cocktail, you’ll just need NEFT Vodka and a sugar cube infused with whiskey barrel aged bitters. It’s a lightly sweet holiday Old Fashioned, with just the right amount of spice. For extra festive flair, garnish your Holiday Wish with an optional flaming Medjool date.*
