Raspberry Resolution

Day 316

Raspberry Resolution

4.5 shots out of 5

**With New Years Eve a few days away, it's time to think beyond the classic glass of champagne!  This new years cocktail has been a crowd pleaser.  It's great what something as simple as raspberry puree can do to a glass of champagne!  Cheers!!**

(p.s. I think it's cool that I made this 4 days before NYE 4 years ago!)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Four days until New Years Eve.  

Sorry, I just have to say that out loud to be able to wrap my mind around it.......I'm still in shock.  

I'd better test out some New Years Eve cocktails while I can then right?  

Tonight I decided to create my own based off of a non-alcoholic version that I had created where you literally substitute sparkling cider for the champagne.

I gave tonight's cocktail 4.5 shots out of 5.  

This is such an easy cocktail to make, I mean you already have the champagne in your glass, why not add some raspberry puree to it?  

Don't like raspberry......well then try some passion fruit puree, strawberry puree, prickly pear puree.........whatever flavored puree you can find that you like.  

Even better, buy them all and make them all to make sure you know which one is your absolute favorite.  

You could always have a taste test bar for your guests on New Years Eve so that everyone can see which is the best.

Here is a couple photos of the end result:

Here is the recipe for a Raspberry Resolution:

• 4 oz champagne
• 1 oz raspberry puree

In a champagne flute, pour in your champagne and raspberry puree.  Stir to mix the puree in well.

Here's to a simple New Years Eve cocktail.......because honestly, by the time midnight comes, who can measure out ingredients anymore??

Cheers!!
