winter spirit
Cold season specter
Winter spirit is the mood or attitude associated with the cold season—a sense of coziness, festivity, or appreciation for winter's particular pleasures.
Someone with winter spirit embraces the season rather than merely enduring it: She's got real winter spirit—already planning sleigh rides and hot cocoa by the fire.
The phrase often appears around the holidays, overlapping with but distinct from Christmas spirit.
