If your idea of spreading holiday cheer includes a drink in the hand, you are in good company!
Most of us like to partake in some merriment at Christmas parties and special gatherings.
If you're like me you're being mindful of your waistline. Just have a plan to celebrate sensibly.
Don't deprive yourself either...try a little taste of everything you love on the snack tray.
Also, go light on any alcohol. If I make a toast I'm usually holding a glass of kombucha. (http://danettemay.com/what-the-heck-is-kombucha-and-should-i-be-drinking-it/)
Here are 4 of my favorite drink recipes that are perfect for the holidays!
1. Homemade Dairy Free Egg Nog (http://danettemay.com/homemade-dairy-free-egg-nog/)
You can't even have Christmas without eggnog, can you? This Homemade Dairy Free Egg Nog (http://danettemay.com/homemade-dairy-free-egg-nog/) is creamy, rich and divinely flavorful.

2. Cranberry Fat Flush (http://danettemay.com/cranberry-fat-flush-drink/)
