OK, so you’re trying to host an for family and friends. You’ve got a few great ideas about how to plan this shindig, but which cocktails should you serve? Here are some great ideas from the folks at V2 Vodka:
The 2 Toast
Ingredients:
One Bottle V2 vodka = $35
3 Bottles Martinelli’s Sparkling Cider = $11
3 cans Kern’s Pear Nectar (available at most markets in the juice aisle) = $3
Directions
Mix 1 part vodka, 2 parts sparkling cider and a splash of pear nectar
This high-end, bubbly cocktail is less expensive than champagne.
The V2 Chocolate Cherry Kiss
Ingredients
One Bottle V2 vodka = $35
One bag frozen cherries (thawed) = $4 (16 oz. bag of frozen, dark, pitted cherries from King Soopers)
Your favorite premium chocolate bars = $11
Directions
Fill the bottom of each mug bottom with cherries. Add one shot of vodka. Pour hot chocolate over mixture. Garnish with a cherry or chocolate shavings.
Make sure not to cook the vodka with the hot chocolate because you don’t want to cook off the alcohol.
