Holiday?beverages are always the most fun. I love the festive colors, the sparkly bubbles, the wintry flavors…?And the garnishes! Oh, the garnishes.?Sugared cranberries.?Sprigs of rosemary. Rims of cinnamon sugar. The possibilities are just endless this time of year!

There’s something kind-of magical about sipping a drink ? alcoholic or not ? in the “good” glassware with friends and family to celebrate the season.

How do I know this? Because my friends call me the ‘cocktail queen.’ My real name’s Susannah and I?blog about cocktails, food recipes, travel and design?at Feast + West. I’m delighted Madison is letting me share this cute DIY project with you before the holidays!

Earlier this month, I was in charge of making a favor for a holiday event, and I came up with these merry?Jingle Bell Drink Stirrers. You can use them?for actually stirring drinks or just for one of those cute garnishes I mentioned. Plus, they jingle of course!?They’re super simple to make, too!

Not sure what drinks to?use them in? I’ve got tons of cocktail ideas ? more than 100, actually ? in my ebook The Ultimate Home Bar Guide. Get your copy today so you’re cocktail savvy in time?to mix ALL?the fun drinks this holiday season!

Here’s what you’ll need:

  • 12?silver jingle bells or?gold jingle bells
  • a hot glue gun (and extra glue sticks!)
  • 12?paper straws

Note: You can use any color or pattern, but?I especially love the striped straws because the stirrers end?up looking like little North Poles!

Here’s?how to make them:

  1. Cover a work surface with newspaper or use a cookie sheet as your work surface. Plug in and heat up the glue gun. And wash your hands, as you’ll be handling straws that will ultimately go in beverages!
  2. Work one straw at a time. Place a dot of hot glue inside the opening of one end of a straw.
  3. Carefully insert a bell and hold in place for 10 seconds. (Note: The metal bells conduct heat, so use work gloves or a rag to protect your fingers from burns.
  4. Place non-bell-side down in a?cup to finish cooling and drying.
  5. Use as a stirrer in any beverage!
