Your Guide to the Perfect Holiday Movie Marathon

Its that time the year again. The holidays are right around the corner, the temperature has dipped below freezing, and the chances of us leaving the comfort of our heated homes is getting lower and lower. I strongly believe that the recipe for a perfect holiday movie marathon is as follows:
- 5-10 classic holiday themed movies
- 1 (or 2) appropriately themed cocktails
- 1 delicious themed snack per holiday movie that you watch
- 1 snuggly blanket
- 2-3 of your best friends
