"Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes,
Silver white Winters that melt into Springs,
These are a few of our Favorite Drinks"
As no two snowflakes are the same, no two CoolCraft Christmas beverages are the same. From Black Friday through the end of the year, the CoolCraft Christmas Beverage Trail makes it easy to find the best holiday beverages from participating breweries, coffee roasters, cocktail bars, and others across West Volusia County.

Handmade, in West Volusia...
For You!
Like each of the beverages you will find along the CoolCraft Christmas Beverage Trail, this year’s CoolCraft Christmas features a distinct, handmade design. Each snowflake, like the design on the cover of the Christmas Card, was hand carved from a block of hessian-backed linoleum. The blocks were then inked and pressed onto paper. After being scanned, they were cleaned up minimally and appear just as you see them below.
Hover over any snowflake to see its “stamp” counterpart.
But, Wait! There's More!
Not really — I just wanted a place to include more of the incredible photography by Steph Kingery. She has been a wonderful partner to work with over the years in conceptualizing these CoolCraft beverage shoots, and this year’s work really speaks for itself. Each of the trees was handmade by her! Crafty and Cool!
