Champagne Wishes


Are you ready to ring in the new year???  I hope you toast to the year that was and the year that will be!
Here is a quick recipe for one of my favorite champagne cocktails...

Champagne Limoncello Cocktails
Yield: 8 servings (serving size: about 1/2 cup)

Ingredients

  • 8  (3 x 1/2-inch) lemon rind strips
  • 8  tablespoons  Limoncello (lemon-flavored liqueur)
  • 4  teaspoons  fresh lemon juice
  • 1  (750-milliliter) bottle brut Champagne, chilled

Preparation

1. Roll up each strip of lemon rind; place 1 into each of 8 Champagne flutes. Add 1 tablespoon liqueur and 1/2 teaspoon juice to each glass. Divide Champagne evenly among glasses. Serve immediately.

How are you planning to celebrate 2011?

  2. I am so so so ready to say good bye to 2010. I am not sure how I will be spending it... I was planning to go to my aunt & uncle's for dinner and games, but they are forecasting freezing rain + snow so I might just go home and ring in the new year by watching movies... We'll see!

    Happy new year to you & mark!

  3. Happy New Year!!

    My husband and I are ordering in pizza and watching movies and will more than likely be ringing in the new year either sleeping or will be up feeding a crying baby.

    Enjoy the champagne for me!

  4. Happy New Year Girly! I have a random question for you. I will be going to New Orleans for my first time in a couple of weeks. I will be staying in a timeshare on bourbon street. I was wondering if you know any good restaurants or fun places to go to or attractions to see. I`ll be going with my grandparents and they have only ever eaten at chains so I would really like to visit some local chains. Thanks so much!
