Raising a glass to 2014 as the year comes to a close. There were so many highlights and bright moments I experienced and I’m incredibly grateful for them all! Thank you to all of you for your continued support of Posh Little Designs! All of my lovely friends and peers in the blogging community, my customers and those I’ve had the honor of meeting and getting to know thru social networks. I have nothing but happiness in my heart for each and every one of you!
I am so looking forward to all that 2015 has to offer, but what we’ve created in 2014 is completely worth celebrating!
Cue the champagne!
I can’t think of a more fitting time to share this quick and simple champagne cocktail with you guys. Complete with fresh fruit, blended and frozen into cubes for an easy and last-minute beverage, if you will be hosting a little NYE party this evening. This recipe will take just a few minutes to make and serves as a nice alternative to champagne by itself.
I hope you enjoy!
Frozen Berries and Champagne
Description
Frozen blended berry cubes paired with sparkling wine or champagne.
Ingredients
1 ice-cube tray
Champagne glasses or coupes
1 bottle of your favorite bubbles ( I chose Sofia Blanc de Blancs mini’s because they’re pretty, pink and I had them on hand)
2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries and strawberries (or fruit of your choice)
2 tbsp organic fruit juice
strainer
saran wrap
blender
Instructions
Instructions:
Blend fruit with organic fruit juice of your choice until liquified.
Pour blended fruit through a strainer to catch seeds.
Fill each cavity of your ice-cube tray with blended fruit mixture and cover with saran.
Place in the freezer for at least one hour or until completely frozen.
When ready to enjoy, remove the cubes from the tray and place 1-2 in each champagne glass.
Pour bubbles over top the frozen berry cubes and allow them to slowly melt into the champagne.
Then propose a toast!
I have to admit, this post was actually supposed to be happening a few days ago, but unfortunately I have come down with the flu so I’ve been a little slow at getting it published. My New Years Eve plans for this evening have been canceled but I’m happy to be ringing in 2015 with one of these!
Wishing you all a very Happy New Year and all the best in 2015!
Cheers!
I’ll have much more to share here soon!
xoxo
