This was my cute and refreshing pink girlie cocktail for the Potomac Reunion, since the ladies were all decked out in Pink tonight !
This drink would be perfect for the Holidays or Valentine’s Day or just to Impress your guests or sweetie on a Tuesday!!!!
3 – 4 oz dry chilled Champagane – would stay away from sweet due to other ‘sweetness’ being added.
.50 – 1 oz chilled cranberry – raspberry juice (Ocean Spray, not store brand if possible)
.50 oz – 1 oz simple syrup with 1 lime wedge squeezed in and 1/4ish tsp orange zest (this can be left out, or you can just squeeze some juice from an orange)
(simple syrup is made by boiling equal amounts of sugar and syrup) bring just to a boil, cool.
Juice of 1 lime wedge, and 1 orange wedge. I made ½ cup of simple syrup, and I got 4 drinks from it, with some leftover. Can be put in fridge and used later.
Sugar in the Raw for garnish
Orange slice for garnish
Rub orange or lime wedge around glass, and dip in sugar
Mix all together in a Champagne glass!!!!!
