Holiday Recipe: Creative Juices

Fundraising often calls for a little creative spark, even through the holidays. This cocktail was originally created for a Canadian Association of Gift Planners Campfire chat, designed to inspire fellow nonprofit professionals in need of a well-deserved break or a fresh idea. 

Combining the kick of cold brew coffee with a hint of whiskey warmth, Creative Juices delivers a cozy blend of flavors with just the right amount of kick to fuel those end-of-year reflections or toast to the new projects ahead. Enjoy a sip, sprinkle some cinnamon on top, and let the creativity flow!
