When we had our restaurant, Rail, Christmas was always my favorite time there. It was so cozy watching the snow from those big barn windows, decorating the troughs outside with evergreen branches, and hanging the wreath on the original 19th century front door.
It also meant that we could break out our favorite seasonal recipes, including this Lingonberry Cosmopolitan. The lime and orange flavors of a Cosmo pair naturally with the tartness and sweetness of lingonberry. This is a perfect cocktail for holiday entertaining and New Year’s Eve. Cheers!
