Poinsettia Cocktail

Poinsettia Cocktail - Andrea Meyers

This poinsettia cocktail was one of our favorites from the champagne cocktail sampling this weekend. It's light, fresh, easy to sip and rather festive looking with the bright red cranberry juice, and will make a perfect addition to a New Year's Eve cocktail list.

    This really looks nice! And, I think I've got all the ingredients in house already to give it a try. Happy New Year!

  2. That looks great for a NYE cocktail!

  3. That looks even prettier than yesterday's. You should enter it in the CLICK: January 2009 photo event. The theme is red, and your picture is perfect for it.
