I will say it was quite the process getting these drinks prepped and ready to go prior to the party. I suggest doing that part with friends too, it makes for some good laughs. We made enough of each drink to serve 20 people which was good because we ended up with 16 crazy cocktail guzzlers. That provided for some leftover adult beverages for morning.<\/p>\n
So which cocktail won? First, with any cocktail you can lower doses of this and raise dashes of that to fit your particular palate. That said, the Sangria came in first place followed by the Beet Margarita, the French 75, and the Spa Cocktail.<\/p>\n
One of our friends, who shall remain nameless (Ryan), couldn\u2019t stand the Beet Margarita but that\u2019s because he doesn\u2019t like beets\u2026which is all good. For the most part it seemed all the cocktails were enjoyed, the Spa Cocktail included, but that Sangria really stood out. It was easy drinking, refreshing, and with that sugar coated sprig of rosemary it tasted like Christmas\u2026pretty cool!<\/p>\n
We tried to use local ingredients as much as possible. We used Re:Find booze as much as we could and of course J. Dusi\u2019s Pinot Grigio. It\u2019s nice to support local whenever you can. Be sure to check out the full recipes as well as Jerry\u2019s book\u2026it\u2019s a cookbook for those that aren\u2019t really into cookbooks (in my opinion).<\/p>\n
Now go get your cocktail on!<\/p>\n\n\n
