sleighride

Snowy horse journey

A sleighride is a journey in a horse-drawn sled over snow, typically for recreation or pleasure: We took a sleighride through the snowy woods.

The word evokes winter nostalgia—jingle bells, bundled passengers, scenic landscapes.

In slang, sleighride can refer to a cocaine high, from the drug's association with snow.
