Five Cocktails You Need In Your Rotation This Season

Ideal for entertaining and the holiday season

Any longtime reader of “A Small and Simple Thing” will note that most of the year I keep my drinking within pretty tight guardrails: Negroni, Margarita, Pilsner Beer, or a crispy white wine. I know what I like and stick to it.

These are five great drinks you need in your arsenal, this season and every other. If you’re not a paid subscriber, these recipes alone are worth the price of a one month subscription.
