The competition this time of year is stiff to distinguish your drink menu from what everyone else is doing. What seems to work well is to keep classic beverages and add a few signature drinks and then promote these holiday beverages!
Suggested ways to draw customers to these drinks:
Beautiful signage
Special menu section inserts with pairing recommendations
Social media posts – these are after all picture worthy
Educate servers so they promote to diners
Know your customer base and make sure what you pick is easy to execute for your staff and provides the biggest opportunity for profit
Inspiration is everywhere – look to foodservice trade publications as well as Pinterest and non trade food magazines
Choose beverages that can easily be made without alcohol to maximize customer appeal
