With the holiday season rapidly approaching, Kenny Chesney has just released a song that is a nod to his popular line of premium-blended rums, Blue Chair Bay Rum. The song is called “Christmas in Blue Chair Bay” and has lyrics like:
“Everybody raise a glass with me right now / To all of those up in the snow from all of us down South / Tis the season for believing and faith and family / I wish you were here with me.”
To celebrate the new song and raise a glass to Kenny, below are some seasonal cocktails to imbibe this November and December to get in the holiday spirit.
Cheers!
