Time to mix up your favorite holiday cocktail! Pair a take-out meal with a take home cocktail kit and some locally distilled rum, vodka or gin. Pick up a gift kit for friends and family. Or enjoy the festive buzz — all the lights and the sparkle — and dress up and go out. Slide onto a barstool to enjoy a holiday-themed cocktail bursting with all the flavors of the season.

Here are some of our favorites:

Le Bar Cocktails

Once again, Marche's Le Bar is pouring drinks. Choose from their selection of festive holiday concoctions, including "Le Bar Nog" and the vegan "Not Buttered Rum". The sparkling atmosphere of one of Eugene's most esteemed culinary venues has the perfect pizazz for a holiday toast.

Sixth Street Eugene Holiday Style

This casually comfortable grill where you may go to watch sports goes big when it comes to cocktails. Sixth Street Restaurant & Sports Bar is serving up a holiday favorite — "The Gingersnap" in a martini glass! From decadent Bloody Marys to spiked hot chocolate with marshmallows, their skilled mixologists know how to put together some memorable drinks.

Izakaya Meiji Company Cocktail Mixers

This destination restaurant in the Whiteaker neighborhood features several sake mixes including their Savory Watermelon Shu-Hi and their Lemon Ginger Shu-Hi. But best of all, you can order an 8 oz. jar of Izakaya Meiji's cocktail cherries that have been aged in bourbon and a house spice blend. With the Whiteaker distillery district right there, stock up your liquor cabinet before heading home.

The Vintage's Holiday Flair

Housed in a historic house, The Vintage has a reputation for spectacular drinks from fishbowl size happy hour specials to an extensive offering of mocktails. Check out their Apple Gin Toddy decked out with an elegant cinnamon stick, just right for sipping on their outdoor patio. 

Sip From a Pineapple at The Monkey's Paw Tiki Bar

Did somebody say "boat drinks"? Just when the cold, wintery days have got you down...head over to The Monkey's Paw Tiki Bar in Springfield for some amazing cocktails presented old school with umbrellas and all the classic garnishes that will transport you to a warm, tropical place in your imagination. It's your happy place!

Provisions South Hot Toddy

Warm up with Provisions South's hot toddy mixed up with bourbon, fresh lemon, honey syrup, lemon and allspice bitters. 

Local Liquor with rokz Infusions

Be your own bar master. Pick up a bottle of Swallowtail gin or Wolf Spirit vodka and combine it with a rokz infusion made here in Oregon. This time of year the cranberry or cinnamon and spice is perfect! Patience is required because it takes a few days, and several swirls of the bottle, but that is part of the fun. Finish any concoction with rokz salt or sugar rim mixes.
