    The holiday cocktail tradition that started 'em all is coming home to where it all started in Montreal: After three years away from its original organizers and enighbourhood, the global Christmas pop-up Miracle returns once again to turn a local bar—this time at Old Montreal's Tittle Tattle Cocktail Bar—into a scene of tinsel-coated maximalism until December 27th.

    Many have entered the arena of holiday bars in Montreal, but Miracle is the original holiday pop-up that spawned 200+ locations worldwide and taught the hospitality industry that people will absolutely line up for a Christmapolitan served in a Santa head mug.

    Montreal helped make it a thing nearly a decade ago, and now hospitality entrepreneur Kevin Demers—the guy behind The Coldroom, El Pequeño, Bar Bisou Bisou, Bar Bello, and the Montreal Cocktail Fest—is taking the reins once again.
