Drinks Ideas for Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is right around the corner and your favorite liquor store in Farragut, Campbell Station Wine & Spirits thought to offer you suggestions for great Thanksgiving cocktails. Thanksgiving dinner is a night of fun with an atmosphere full of love. This means we need to be very selective in our ingredients and make sure we don’t go over on the alcohol levels and spoil the event. But at the same time, every party needs some good drinking so here’s what we suggest to you:

1. Pumpkin Pie Martini: This is a favorite for a lot of people because it has it all: vanilla, chocolate and pumpkin puree!

Ingredients
2 ounces vanilla vodka
2 ounces white creme de cacao
1/4 cup heavy cream
1.5 tablespoons of pumpkin puree (pie mix)
1 dash of ground nutmeg (for garnish)
Powdered graham cracker (for the rim)
Preparations
Rim two martini glasses with crushed graham cracker. Fill a shaker with ice and add the vodka, creme de cacao, cream and pumpkin puree. Shake well until it’s chilled. Strain into the martini glasses. Sprinkle the ground nutmeg on top for garnish.

2. American Pie Cocktail: Relive the epic movie with friends with this easy cocktail!

1 cup cranberry juice
Sliced apples, for garnish, optional
