It sounds like you want to say it better / more naturally. Here are a few polished options—pick the tone you like:
Casual
- “I make this every Christmas—I literally have to.”
- “I make this every Christmas; it’s non-negotiable.”
Warm & traditional
- “I make this every Christmas—it’s a family tradition.”
- “It wouldn’t be Christmas without this.”
Emphatic / fun
- “I make this every Christmas, no exceptions.”
- “I make this every Christmas, whether I want to or not!”
Slightly more polished
- “I make this every Christmas—it’s become a must.”
If you want it to sound funny, sentimental, or very British/holiday-style, tell me and I’ll tailor it perfectly 😊
