Sometimes it's nice to set the dessert dish aside and sip on a tasty dessert cocktail instead! These Toasty Almond Cocktails are sweet, creamy, and very easy to sip on. You'll be feeling all toasty and warm in no time. Have a cozy weekend friends!

I love this!! Amaretto is a guilty pleasure of mine, and that lovely sugared rim is the perfect finishing touch.
