HOLIDAYS // EATS: Sleighing Holiday Cheer by Laurie James (@lbjames89)

With massive apologies to the Waitresses and their seminal end-of-year ode “Christmas Wrapping,” this is the time of year that’s a busy blur. You may be stuck in your drinking rut, drinking more because of parties, or drinking less for your health. Whatever the reason, here are some options from the boozy to the sublimely seasonal.

For nonalcoholic starters, ’tis the season for festive coffee beverages. Ostara Coffee recently launched a holiday collaboration with Santitos, an Oak Cliff-based small business specializing in Horchata, Café de Olla, and Michelada concentrates. At Ostara’s Holiday Market last weekend, I sampled the Santitos Horchata, a recipe steeped in their family history. The flavor of Mexican cinnamon floods your tastebuds with confusing messages. Is this cinnamon and nutmeg? Cinnamon and allspice? Most of the cinnamon in grocery stores is Indonesian cinnamon, essentially cassia tree bark that barely tastes like the original. Mexican cinnamon packs a floral punch of warmth. Ostara is one of the few local places you can try the Santitos Horchata concentrate in a latte or as a frothy cold foam topper to any of the coffee options.

In other seasonal flavor opportunities, Crude Craft Coffee Bar has a non-coffee take on the season. The Grinch Matcha is a matcha latte with house-made peppermint syrup, and the green concoction is topped with a little crushed candy cane. Harvest Coffee has every seasonal taste you could want in lattes, including gingerbread, egg nog, and Christmas cookie, along with a peppermint mocha. And Inclusion Coffee ups the seasonal flavor with their Dirty Gingerbread Chai; a coffee-free S’mores Drinking Chocolate with a torched marshmallow topping; and a Christmas Crème Brûlée with caramel, vanilla, and a brûléed sugar top.

To know her is to know that she would rather be behind the scenes putting her clients in the spotlight, but we couldn’t be more proud of our Executive Producer/Publicist @bethhutson on being named one of Fort Worth Inc’s Most Influential People for 2023.

Whether you’re doing Dry January, Damp January, or keeping it decidedly boozy, this drink by @theelevatedelixir is a breath of fresh air.

She calls it “a delicate and refreshing zero-proof cocktail with citrus zest and floral notes,” and it doesn’t disappoint—bright and beautiful, it's a delicious addition to happy hour whether you’re exploring non-alcoholic cocktails or adding gin.

See the link in our stories for the recipe 🖤
