What is there to do when you're snowed in? Easy answer: Mix yourself a cocktail…after all, you’re not going anywhere! So pay close attention brides, I’ve got the most delectable drink recipe that will sure to please your taste buds. It’s called Passion and the vibrant ruby color looks juicy, rich and luscious. Who knows, you may even make it your wedding’s signature cocktail!


First, I would like to introduce the main ingredient, sparkling wine. Now I know some of you are probably asking, “Isn’t that the same thing as Champagne?” Realistically, yes, but technically, no. Champagne can only be produced from Champagne, France, just like Italian sparkling is known as Prosecco, Spain produces Cava, etc. Essentially it is the same thing, carbonated wine. I suggest using Domaine Saint Vincent or Gruet Brut, which are both excellent sparklings for the price.

You'll also need Fragoli Wild Strawberry Liqueur. Fragoli is a sweet Italian liqueur made from whole wild strawberries, which are floating in the bottle! I purchased mine from Laurentiwines.com.

Passion Ingredients:
4 Parts Chilled Sparkling Wine
1 Part Fragoli Wild Strawberry Liqueur

Instructions:
Pour the 1 part of Fragoli first, then top with chilled sparkling wine.

The wild strawberries will be dancing around in your champagne flute and yes, you can eat them!
