With the arrival of the holidays, we welcome everything winter. From watching the snow fall, cozied up on the couch with ABC Family’s 25 Days of Christmas to boarding a flight to escape the cold, we invite you to enjoy your winter holidays with our December specials at Madrones—no matter where you are.

You may be taking a stay-cation this year and what better way to kick it off than with our strawberry mango cocktail that’ll whisk you away to a tropical island for a coconut-scented Christmas. If you’ve decided to travel, stop by for our featured banana-flavored wine to get your vacation started.

Entrée Special:

Filet Mignon Medallions, Baby Shrimp, Pasta Pesto and Balsamic Glaze: Three hickory-grilled beef filet mignon medallions over linguini tossed with sautéed baby shrimp, baby spinach and pesto. This mouthwatering dish is drizzled with balsamic glaze and topped with balsamic-soaked Roma tomatoes and freshly grated Reggiano cheese. Try it for $22.80.

Featured Wines:

Skyfall, Pinot Gris: Walla Walla, Wash. – This wine’s pale straw-like color fools onlookers, but those who take a sip are blown away to an excluded beach with notes of mango, citrus blossom and banana. The smooth finish to this delish tangy wine makes you wonder why anyone would want a white Christmas. Try a glass for $9 or buy a bottle for $31.

Valley of the Moon, Cabernet Sauvignon: Sonoma County, Calif. – The dark cherry aromas of this wine will make you want to put on a wool scarf and pretend you’re posing for a Hallmark Christmas card. The currant and smooth tannins add complexity to this berry delicious wine. (See what we did there?) Try a glass for $11 or purchase a bottle for $38.

We hear wine makes a great stocking stuffer, so make the holidays shine a little brighter with our half-off bottles of featured wines on Wednesdays!

Featured Cocktails:

Here at Madrones, we’re shaking things up this holiday season. We’re throwing out the stereotypical cinnamon and vanilla flavored cocktails in lieu of some exotic juices for our favorite holiday fusions, which so happen to be Elvis’ favorite, too. Cheers to a Blue Christmas.

The “Retro Classic:” Mai Tai – This devilish drink may just put you on the Naughty List this year, but it’s worth it. The exciting blend of rum and an assortment of juices might actually make you hear sleigh bells ring. Make the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll proud by trying it for $8.

The “Hipster:” Strawberry Mango Caipirinha – Who needs a plane ticket to Brazil under the tree when this drink will have the same affect? This sweet blend of Brazilian Cachaça Rum, limes, mangos, sugar and strawberries will have you saying “Feliz Natal” for hours. Take a holiday vacation for $8.

Instead of milk and cookies, visit Madrones this December to enjoy the winter holiday with our tasty cocktails, scrumptious wines and to-die-for entrees.

From all of us at Madrones, we hope to see you soon.
