How do you make the viral snow globe cocktail?

This is to eliminate any air bubbles.
Then, pick your fruits and spices that will take the drink from a normal cocktail to a festive beverage.

The challenge is an opportunity for players to confess their wildest secret celebrity crush to the world, no matter how bizarre or nonsensical it might seem.
