Signature Drink – “Love Potion” for the Bride June 25, 2010

     

I recently hosted a bridal shower brunch for my sister and came up with a fun signature drink to serve:  Sara’s Love Potion.  Similar to a mimosa, it’s a champagne cocktail made of 2 parts champagne and 1 part strawberry nectar* (you don’t need exact measurements – just pour some bubbly into the glass and add a splash of the nectar).  Serve in champagne glasses and garnish with fresh strawberries.  Print a sign with the name of the bride and the name of the drink.  Add some hearts of cupid clips and you’ll have yourself a hip signature drink.

*Several organic brands sell strawberry nectar which are pure strawberry juice.  Other brands, such as Goya, sell a strawberry nectar that is strawberry flavored (it has apple juice, added sugar, etc.).  Either will work in this drink.
