Poinsettia Cocktail

An easy and festive cocktail for the holidays or anytime you want to celebrate. I love to add sugared cranberries as a garnish. For that recipe, see the link in the paragraph above.

Ingredients

  • 2 Tablespoons Cointreau or other orange liqueur
  • 4 Tablespoons cranberry juice unsweetened
  • 6 Tablespoons Champagne or Prosecco
  • 1 sprig rosemary sprig
  • 1/2 cup sugared cranberries or fresh raspberries

Instructions

  1. Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice, then add the cranberry juice and Cointreau. Shake for 15 seconds. Strain the juice into a Champagne flute.

  2. Fill the rest of the Champagne flute with Champagne or Processo. (about 6 Tablespoons)

  3. Garnish with a sprig of fresh rosemary and a few sugared cranberries on a toothpick. See link above for a sugared cranberry recipe.

  4. To make this ahead of time, you can make a batch of the cranberry juice and Cointreau by multiplying the ingredients by 6. This is approximately the amount needed for a bottle of Champagne and should give you 6-8 drinks, depending on the size of your flutes.
