Holiday Peach Cranberry Cocktail
“Celebration is one of the most effective weapons we have against the darkness of our day. When we celebrate we proclaim the fact that there is still good in the world because God is still faithful.”
~Sally Clarkson
Holiday Peach Cranberry Cocktail. November 18, 2023.
A woman I follow on Instagram recently wrote the above statement. That statement strikes at my heart and why it is important to preserve the home culture for our children. When we celebrate, we continue traditions they will hold in their heart and remember. If we keep the fire burning, we will continue to fortify the foundation that will provide them stability in the years to come. The stability that will see them through the rough spots. Having that warm memory of the holidays tucked away reminds us of why we work to protect it and keep moving forward. And the effort we put into this season will not be in vain if we keep our focus on what is important.
Creativity is a great way to fill the home with color and warmth. And this Holiday Peach Cranberry Cocktail is another expression of holiday creativity that I wanted to share today. The golden sweetness of peaches and the tangy tartness of cranberries pair wonderfully at the holidays which is why I love bringing the two of them together. You can see this delicious recipe pairing the two right here. But in any case, this cocktail marries the two for a different sort of flavor instead of the usual cranberry orange duo. Although I do love cranberry-orange too, but variety is good. So, I hope you enjoy this Holiday Peach Cranberry Cocktail and have a very blessed week as Thanksgiving approaches!
