I had a great drink the other night but non alcoholic due to pregnancy. But the barender does make it with alcohol normally.
It's called Simply Delicious

Ginger Ale
Grapefriut juice
a splash of Lime juice
Vanilla Vodka
I can't wait to try it with alcohol!

Target has these great buckets and all you have to do is add the vodka and put them in the freezer. We had the Winter Berry Cosmo - TO DIE FOR!!!

Those do sound good- I am eyeballing that coconut mojitoChat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Last NYE we did that pomegranate Martini recipe that Oprah had on. It was really good, I'll go see if I can find it.


ETS- Found it:

Oprah's Pomegranate Martini
Recipe courtesy of Oprah Winfrey
From the show Oprah and Rachael Ray
Throw a Holiday Party
Serves 2


Printer-Friendly Version Review This Recipe

Oprah loves martinis—and this is one of her favorites!


INGREDIENTS
1 1/2 cups pomegranate juice
2 oz. Absolute Citron vodka OR white tequila
1 oz. Cointreau liquor
Cup of ice
Optional: Splash of sparkling water
Optional: Squeeze of lemon

Shake ingredients in a shaker and put in chilled martini glasses. Put pomegranate fruit into glass as garnish.

* For more information about Rachael Ray, visit www.rachaelrayshow.com.

________________________________



Found more: and a great site-



Bellini
1 ounce white peach puree
5 ounces chilled champagne


Pour peach puree into a champagne flute, then add champagne. The peach puree can either be made from ripe fresh peaches that have been peeled, or you can use a commercial peach puree.
For the Peach Puree, the product I recommend is "White Peach Puree" offered by The Perfect Puree Company of Napa Valley.

Re: Good cocktails for new years?

The coconut mojito is the BEST, bc it is sooo smooth (which could run you into problems bc they go down fast!!!) I would use toasted coconut on the rim (DRY COCONUT TOO) just dont use wet, bc it gets messy. Yummy!

How many parts of each did you use to make this drink? Also to get the graham cracker rim what do you do...just wet the glass?
