#DOTW: Mandarin Mistletoe

Merry Christas everyone! Well, almost. But let’s face it. Here in NYC, once the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree is lit, it’s Christmas for a couple of weeks straight, and I am one hundred percent ok with this. Parties, dinners, specials, I love it all, it’s my favorite holiday. Of course you need a special cocktail to serve at your holiday party, and I’m no-one to disappoint. This one is fruity and delicious, and make sure you kiss someone, because this drink looks like a Mistletoe!!

What you’ll need:

  • 2 oz Absolut Mandarin
  • 1 oz Cointreau
  • 2 oz Sprite
  • 2 – 3 mandarin slices
  • cranberries and mint leaves

In a highball glass combine Absolute Mandarin, Cointreau and Sprite with ice. Squeeze the juice of two to three mandarin slices into the cocktail. If you’re lucky enough to get your hands on mandarins with leaves, use the leaves as garnish with a few cranberries. However, mint leaves work just as well.

Cheers!
