For one of the rare times, I again drank at home hehe. I had my last bottle of wine left, a white zinfandel, and for the superbowl I decided to celebrate in style!
The dried flowers I use on the tray are actually roses from a wedding last summer that dried beautifully. They were a pale pale pink and turned into a beautiful creamy yellow with a dark rose edge to the petals.
For my great tasting bubbly beverage, I combined 3 measures of the white wine with 2 measures gingerale. I loved the combination. I think next time I might try a Sprite just to see if that added sugar changes the overall taste.
I was just happy to enjoy an alcoholic beverage for once at home hehe.
I did do some research though and found out I can purchase the vodka and gin and other liquers at a store 4 minutes away from where I live as well though, so I am looking forward to trying out some of the other cocktails I have in my recipe book.
Really, I just want to know how to make a good selection for parties, as well as know what I like. I am well stocked on lemon and lime juice for sure...
Doesn't the drink just look pretty?? So shiny!
It looks fantastic! I would like to try this drink. I'm not usually a wine drinker and it shows lol. One glass and I'm feelin' kinda tipsy.
ReplyDeleteTehe well isnt that the fun of it?? Jk no and mixing the white wine (i found i do like white even though not red) with gingerale or sprite "weakens" it as well so you can knock down a few no problem! we are going to have so much fun when we get together... hehehe.
