Recently on an all-company virtual meeting (aka All Toad), we shared our favorite holiday sips to get us in the seasonal mood. The ideas were so delicious we decided we had to share them with you too. Bottoms up, friends.

Sarah P's Mapletini:

• 2 shots Irish cream
• 1 shot brandy
• 1/2 shot cinnamon schnapps
• 1 teaspoon maple syrup
• Cinnamon stick for garnish

1. Combine all ingredients, shake 'em up.
2. Pour into a chilled martini glass, straining out the ice. Garnish with a cinnamon stick.
3. Don't plan any big activities for the next day.

• Apple pie kombucha
• Whiskey

1. Combine.
2. If you don't have apple pie kombucha or whiskey, try any kind of kombucha with champagne as a mimosa substitute. We're not picky here. 

• Coffee
• Jameson
• Bailey's

1. Keep it simple. Add Jameson and Bailey's to your coffee, it's all you need.

• Chai tea
• Milk or milk substitute
• Irish Crème Liquor

1. Brew some Chai tea.
2. Heat one part milk (or milk substitute) and one part Irish Crème Liquor until steamy, then froth until it reaches a foamy consistency.
