Ringing in the new year…. Cocktails of the Season!

Ok New Year’s Eve, where will you be out at a trendy bar like me! ( Martini Bar with dinner, entertainment, ) a great chic way to ring in the new year.  Well if you are at home and need some new recipes from the Hampton’s Weekly here are a few of my favorites!

Berry Frost (17 oz. pitcher) – Created by Kim Haasarud, Liquid Architecture

 • 1.5 oz. Belvedere Vodka
 • 1 oz. lemon juice
 • 1 oz. simple syrup
 • 3 oz. white cranberry juice
 • 20 red and white grapes
 • 6 oz Moet & Chandon Impérial Champagne

Directions: In the bottom of a 17 oz. pitcher, muddle the grapes. Add the Belvedere vodka, lemon juice, simple syrup and white cranberry juice. Stir. Cover and keep refrigerated until ready to use. When ready to use, stir contents and top with chilled White Star champagne. Stir again. Serve with cocktail glasses filled with ice and pre-garnished with three to four grapes.

NOTE: While Sangrias can be “made-to-order”, they are better the longer they sit in the pitcher. For optimum taste, make at least an hour in advance. (The pre-batched pitchers can be made up to 48 hours in advance).
