Make the most of the holidays with these seasonal cocktail recipes.
Salut! I’m Kendall, the author behind Novel Nightcaps.
A creative by trade, I first found craft cocktail-making during the pandemic when my former partner and I started documenting tastings on the since-retired Instagram account Sips From Scripts.
