She\u2019s been very open about why her time within the British royal family didn\u2019t work out (namely, racism). The arrangement was in fact so toxic that she and her husband abandoned their positions to build a new life for themselves and their (adorably ginger) children in a wealthy California suburb. <\/p>\n<p>Is it just us, or does the messiness she\u2019s experienced just make Markle even more relatable? After all, who among us hasn\u2019t experienced family drama? And we hate to say it, but that drama typically goes hand-in-hand with the holidays.<\/p>\n<p>In 2015, Markle shared her best holiday advice with Grazia, including a recipe for <a href=\"https:\/\/graziadaily.co.uk\/life\/real-life\/friends-christmas-fake-christmas-tips\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">this delicious almond milk holiday cocktail<\/a>. Of course, 2015 Markle was a very different person who must have had much more casual holidays. She hadn\u2019t met her future husband and was a Suits star and lifestyle influencer living a comparatively ordinary life in Toronto. She wasn\u2019t a princess, a royal, or a mother. We love that this recipe is a bit of a blast from the (fairly recent) past but still holds up as a gently creamy, warm, sweet treat. It\u2019s kind of like a lighter version of eggnog that gets a little more depth thanks to the addition of dates as a sweetener.<\/p>\n<p>Meghan Markle\u2019s Almond Milk Spiced Holiday Cocktail <\/p>\n<p><strong>Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>4 cups unsweetened almond milk (you can make your own by blending raw almonds with milk and straining it)<br \/>*1 tsp of cinnamon<br \/>1 tsp cardamom<br \/>1 tsp of powdered ginger<br \/>1\/2 tsp of clove<br \/>6-8 dried dates soaked in water<br \/>your favorite bourbon<br \/>cinnamon sticks for garnish<\/p>\n<p><strong>Directions<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Blend all ingredients (except the alcohol) in a powerful blender and then move to a small saucepan.<br \/>Heat at a low temperature until heated.<br \/>Add 4-6oz into the pot depending on your friends\u2019 palates.<br \/>Pour each drink and garnish with a cinnamon stick.<br \/>If you prefer this drink cold, then omit the heating and shake it hard in a cocktail shaker and serve in champagne glasses with a cinnamon\/sugar rim on the glass.<\/p>\n<p>      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wuc-logo-inarticle\" alt=\"wake-up call logo\" src=\"https:\/\/katiecouric.com\/wp-content\/themes\/kcm\/images\/WUC_logo_250px.svg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>    Want more great content?<\/p>\n<p class=\"kcm-newsletter__copy\">Sign up here to jumpstart your mornings with Katie&#8217;s dynamic daily newsletter, Wake-Up Call.<\/p>\n<p class=\"kcm-newsletter__terms\">\n      By joining you accept KCM <a href=\"https:\/\/katiecouric.com\/terms-conditions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Terms of Service<\/a> &amp; <a href=\"https:\/\/katiecouric.com\/privacy-policy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Privacy Policy<\/a>\n    <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Meghan Markle has had an intense couple of years.
