FREEHOLD, NJ — Miracle, an original holiday cocktail pop-up bar, is set to return to Monmouth County this holiday season for its 12th year.

Set to open at over 150 locations around the world, the bar will bring larger-than-life holiday décor, imaginative new cocktails, exclusive collectible mugs and glassware and festive experiences to Freehold and a location in Long Branch.

Designed to surprise longtime fans while welcoming newcomers, this year’s menu will showcase the signature flavors and playful creativity that have defined Miracle from the start, officials said.

Balancing the familiar with the unexpected, fresh creations will sit alongside nostalgic favorites, with a broader selection of zero-proof options following the addition of select low/no-ABV serves last year.

"Miracle has grown from a single pop-up into a global cocktail phenomenon over these past 12 years," said Greg Boehm, Founder of Miracle Cocktails Inc.
