[Excerpt]

There’s nothing quite like a dram of your favorite whisky when you’re snuggled up by the fire. While a neat pour can be great in a pinch, if you’re having a few folks over this winter or you just want to spice things up with a cocktail instead, there are several excellent whisky (and whisky) cocktails worth giving a try.

Winter whisky cocktails often feature dark fruit and spiced flavors, a contrast to the bright fruits you find in cocktails during warmer months.

The perfect way to warm up on a cool evening, most of these recipes are easy enough for a beginner to make on their own, while a few employ skills like making your own simple syrups, which are still fairly easy to do but might pose a bit more of a challenge.

Whether you’re having a party, or just curling up with a good book on your own, here are some great winter whisky cocktails to keep you cozy this winter.
