One of the joys of holiday parties is the fun of trying new types of alcoholic beverages. There are hundreds of possible combinations to explore, so it's always possible to discover a new favorite cocktail. Vodka mixes well with multiple juices, syrups, and spices, so it's a great base to experiment with. Below are some tasty vodka drinks to serve during your next social gathering.

3 Delicious Vodka Drinks to Try at Your Next Party

1. The Cosmo

The Cosmopolitan is a perennial favorite. Its origins are hotly disputed, but similar recipes have been in circulation since the 1930s. It includes vodka, cranberry juice, and a splash of orange liqueur and lime juice. Blend all of these ingredients in a shaker and serve in a martini glass without ice and with a twist of lemon. 

2. The Moscow Mule

This drink is served in a signature copper mug and has reached heights of popularity lately due to its unique flavor and easy recipe. Simply add one shot of vodka and four ounces of ginger beer and a splash of lime juice. Then, stir it up and garnish with lime. For the holidays, garnish with mint and cranberries instead.

3. The Bloody Mary

If you're gathering for breakfast or brunch, the Bloody Mary is an essential beverage. Mix vodka and tomato juice and add a splash of lemon juice. Mix in a teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce and Tabasco to taste. Finish with a pinch of salt and pepper and serve over ice in a highball tumbler. Garnish with celery, olives, pickles, or even asparagus.
