Mrs. Claus Cocktail

by | Nov 4, 2024 |

The Mrs. Claus Cocktail is a refreshing raspberry vodka cocktail that’ll make your tastebuds jingle. But why is it called that? It’s to celebrate the unsung heroes of the holiday season. The supportive partners who, much like Mrs. Claus, help in preparing for the season’s festive celebrations. In the gay community, where relationships often navigate unique challenges, this cocktail is an ode to the supportive partners who stand by us. Those offering a helping hand, a listening ear, and a shared commitment to making the holiday season special for everyone – regardless of sexual orientation. 

The Mrs. Claus Cocktail represents the spirit of partnership and mutual support, essential elements in any relationship. However, it hits different within our community. As we prepare for the holidays, make this delicious raspberry vodka treat to show your appreciation we have for those who help you most. Whether it be by planning holiday gatherings or offering emotional support during family interactions. Your support group deserves to know you care, and this cocktail is the best way to do just that. 

Raspberry, Vodka, Cocktail – a Perfect Trio of Teamwork 

The Mrs. Clause Cocktail is the perfect way to strengthen relationships with those you care for most. It’s a celebration of the teamwork that strengthens our relationships. The holiday season can be stressful, with its flurry of activities and sometimes challenging family situations. The Mrs. Claus Cocktail reminds us to acknowledge and appreciate the efforts of our partners who work alongside us to create a festive and loving atmosphere. Those who listen if your family won’t. The friends that’ll never leave your side no matter what. And most importantly, the ones who love you unconditionally. 

Enjoying a Mrs. Claus Cocktail together can become a moment of connection and appreciation. It’s an opportunity to take a break from the holiday hustle, to share in the joy of the season, and to reflect on the strength and resilience of our partnerships.So, get to mixing and serve this at your next get-together to show all your invitees how much you care for them. 

Can you think of a better way to show your appreciation? Whether it’s through helping with holiday preparations, creatively wrapping gifts, or simply offering a supportive shoulder – show them you care. Give them the perfect tastebud tingling treat. While you’re grinding at the grocery store, pick up a bottle of Stoli Raspberry. After all, Stoli has been a an LGBTQ ally for over 30 years.

How to Make the Mrs. Claus Cocktail

  • 1 oz Stoli Raspberry
  • 1 oz blackcurrant liqueur
  • 1 oz pomegranate juice
  • 1 oz cranberry juice

Shake all ingredients with ice. Strain into a highball glass filled with fresh ice. Garnish with a dehydrated lime wheel.

Enjoy and drink responsibly.

The Spirit of Change

Sustainability, LGBTQ, diversity, and injustice are core pillars of Stoli. The original vodka recipe was developed in 1938, and by 1948 it was being made and bottled in Latvia, where the award-winning Stoli lineup is made to this day. Stoli has a long, rich history of supporting the LGBTQ community, when in 1991 Stoli became one of the first spirit brands to actively champion LGBTQ issues on global equality, visibility, and acceptance for all. In 1997, Stoli was purchased by Yuri Shefler, transforming Stoli into a vertically integrated company, which lead to Putin waging a war in 2000 for the vodka trademark, which has been unsuccessful. 

In 2018, Stoli commemorated the 40th anniversary of Harvey Milk being the first openly gay elected official in California, by launching the limited edition, individually numbered, Harvey Milk Limited Edition bottle, with proceeds going to the Harvey Milk Foundation LGBGTQ programming in Eastern Europe and the Baltic nations. Proudly Latvian, Stoli has affirmed their ongoing support of Ukraine and is steadfast in denouncing Russia’s aggression on the sovereign nation. Stoli’s spirit continue to inspire to create a better future for all.
