Nothing says "Christmas brunch" like offering guests a festive cocktail or two to go with their relaxed holiday meal. The holidays are a great time to try out a new festive drink, and we've rounded up plenty of options to serve at Christmas brunch. The good news is, plenty of our favorite holiday drinks are non-alcoholic so little ones don't have to miss out on the festive fun.
We recommend mixing up a big batch of punch and letting guests serve themselves for easy Christmas morning cocktails. Holiday drinks, of course, should always include a warm option, and we love slow cooker hot chocolate on a cold Christmas morning. Mulled cider is also a festive Christmas brunch option. Each of these Christmas morning drink ideas, whether it includes alcohol or not, will elevate the normal holiday festivities to next-level merry-making.
