We've got your hook-up for New Year's Eve right here, but we know you're not going to wait until the 31st to get your party on. In celebration of the holiday season, we’ve assembled the best in cold-weather lounges, holiday cocktails, hostess gifts for winos and champagne freaks, and a big ol’ guide to presents for the biggest boozehounds in your life. The cherry on top? Boardner's snow-covered holiday bash starring Steve Aoki.
