Sparkling Strawberry Lime
Hey, heyyyy! We’re not sure where you are, but where we are, it’s still too cold for our liking. So we’re continuing on with our mission to channel warmer weather by drinking spring-inspired drinks! Today’s beverage of choice is our Sparkling Strawberry Lime featuring our Pinetti Notte Pinot Grigio!
Here’s what you’ll need:
1 Bottle Pinetti Notte Pinot Grigio
1 Can Lime Bubly
Strawberry slices to garnish
Lime slices to garnish
And here’s how you make it:
In a glass, pour your lime Bubly until half full. Top with Pinetti Notte Pinot Grigio. Garnish glass with strawberry & lime slices. Drink and enjoy!
This one is a great option for our wine drinkers who prefer to steer clear of the sweet wines. The lime Bubly gives it just enough while refraining from taking away from the dry Pinot Grigio taste. We think your palate will thank us!
As always, you can find video recipe and more details on our Instagram @corksandcheers!
Cheers, friends!
Galentine’s Dipped Flutes
L-L-L-LADIEEEES! Oh. My. Gosh. We have the CUTEST Galentine’s activity/treat for you today and we have been DYING to share it with you! As you know well, we typically come here with a fun, new drink for you to try, but today we’re coming at you with something to pour that drink into. Behold, the champagne flute… but it’s not just ANY flute. It’s a white-chocolate dipped Galentine’s Day flute! And it is to. die. for.
Here’s what you’ll need:
Champagne flutes
Melting Chocolate
Sprinkles
And, might we suggest — Ogio Prosecco to enjoy when you’re finished!
Here’s how you make them:
First, pour your sprinkles into a dish so they’re ready to go. Next, heat your melting chocolate in a small bowl per the instructions. Once melted, dip the top of your champagne flute into the chocolate and then immediately into your sprinkles. (Think margarita glass/salt rim type of thing). Set glass aside to dry and continue to dip in sprinkles as needed as the chocolate will probably slide down the glass slightly. Once dry, pour your Prosecco and enjoy! It’s the “wine and chocolate” pairing you never knew you needed!
These were so easy to make and turned out SO DANG CUTE! We think these would be such a hit at a Galentine’s Party and we want to see how yours turned out! Share with us on Instagram and tag us @corksandcheers!
ALSO! Remember our Hard Candy Prosecco!? YES! You could easily combine both of these lil’ recipes for an extra cute V-Day treat — dipped flutes AND candy!
Xoxo, gals!
Hard Candy Prosecco
How are we already 2 months into 2021, right?! February snuck right up on us which means Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. If you’ve been around here any amount of time, you know one thing to be true — we love celebrating anything, but especially holidays! And the holiday all about love is about as “us” as it gets!
Today, we’re bringing you the sweetest, easiest, and yummiest little V-Day drink to share with your favorite gals or with that sweet someone. Regardless, it’s going to be a hit…and it takes little to no effort on your part. To make our Hard Candy Prosecco you literally need the ingredients in the title.
You guessed it — Here’s what you’ll need:
Ogio Prosecco
Jolly Ranchers Hard Candy
Here’s how you make it:
In a champagne flute, pour your Prosecco. Next, pick your favorite JR flavor and drop it in the glass. Let sit for 2-4 minutes or until you’re ready to drink it. And voila — you have the most DELISH candied-champagne! And the bonus!? When you’re finished drinking, you have a sweet little candy waiting for you to eat it at the bottom of the glass!
Not only is this probably the easiest drink we’ve ever made — and that’s saying something — it’s also really stinking cute! Especially after letting the candy sit for a bit…because then you end up with colorful champagne! YES PLEASE.
We hope no matter how, who, or what you’re celebrating this Valentine’s Day, that you know and feel how loved you are —especially by all of us here at Corks + Cheers!
Xoxo!
