Holiday Cocktail: The Poinsettia
I love a cocktail, especially one with a theme. Let's face it, besides meaning abundant, plentiful, and pleasing to the senses, the adjective "lush" also has a slang meaning of something else entirely. I made a drink called the Poinsettia for tree trimming with the family. The tree trimming was a bit of a flop because I was missing half of my Xmas lights and decorations, but the company, food, and drink were very successful.
The Poinsettia
1/4oz Grand Marnier
3oz Cranberry Juice
Champagne
Add Grand Marnier and chilled Cranberry juice to a champagne flute. Top with Champagne.
Grand Marnier can be substituted for Cointreu OR Triple Sec, and Champagne can be substituted for any sparkling wine (I used Prosecco).
