It's officially holiday cocktail season and I wanted to come up with something a little different that was fancy to wow your guest, but easy enough you could whip it up quick! Now full disclosure, this wholeeee post is my best friend Mikhaila's! She took over the creative process after our local market didn't have any fresh figs and then went to work in the kitchen while I played with her (well I refer to him as my or our) baby aka my best boy Bodhi aka bear aka handsome pants aka B. So giving credit where credit is due, she made this DELISH cocktail that you could total make in small batches like she did or a pitcher for the night. We'll call this Mixology with Miki!
