Citrus Season Is Served

 Citrus Season Is Served –
Winter Cocktails That Shine

 

When winter’s chill settles in, we crave brightness wherever we can find it—and few things lift a grey afternoon like a splash of citrus. Freshly squeezed juice or a fragrant twist can instantly transform a cocktail to awaken the senses and balance the richness of the season’s most hearty dishes. From ruby-red blood oranges to tart limes and fragrant mandarins, citrus fruits are at their peak this time of year. They’re vibrant, aromatic, and brimming with healthy vitamin C. Whether hosting fireside drinks or an après-ski gathering, we love using citrus to bring a touch of sunshine to every glass. Here are a few of our favourite ways to stir, shake, and sip.
