Rum Rum Rudolph, $25. We might be skipping the holidays, but we’re not skipping out on holiday boozin’, which is made all the more festive thanks to a slew of special cocktails to go from Detroit cock-tail bar The Skip. There’s North Pole Punch (Bourbon, overproof and dark Jamaican rums, creme de banana, maple syrup, cinnamon syrup, and lime juice), or the Blitzen Bowl (Jamaican and Demerara rums, allspice dram, apricot brandy, Tuaca, ginger syrup, lime juice, angostura bitters, almond bitters), Sippin’ Santa (aged Demerara rum, amaro, nutmeg syrup, cinnamon syrup, lemon and orange juice), and a slew of other boozy bevs that come with their own garnishes to make the holidays merry, bright, and dizzy. Want to step up the Santa-ified sipping? The Skip is also selling a limited run of holiday-themed tiki drinkware. We recommend the Sippin’ Santa’s Tiki Tub ($59) be-cause who needs a glass when you can drink from a bowl?
Sigh. With the country in crisis, celebrating any holiday has left us, well, comfortably numb. We’ve missed birthdays, summer flew by faster than our binge of Great British Baking Show (yes, we’re talking every season), Halloween was a total bust, and now here we are — the holidays. Some of us don’t have jobs because, well, you know why. Some of us are strapped for cash — again, we think you get the idea. And, of course, there may be some empty chairs at dinner tables this year because … man, this year was tough.
But if we’ve learned anything after enduring a year that not even the Grinch was evil enough to have plotted, it’s that giving feels really good. Whether it’s donating to a local bailout fund, food bank, friends and family in the teetering-on-collapse service industry, or your favorite bookstore facing permanent closure, we might feel dead inside but we’re far from it. And even though we may be visiting loved ones through a screen like some dystopian daymare, that doesn’t mean we can’t still celebrate us — after all, we’re the ones who made it through.
Gift giving and supporting local businesses has never been more important and, thanks to us (sorry, it’s been hard for us, too) it’s never been easier. We’ve scoured the streets and internet for metro Detroit’s independent businesses and labeled them according to how much money you can expect to drop on a gift.
