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!

Blood Orange Bourbon Bubbly

Light the fire and grab your comfies, y’all, because we are coming to you today with THE perfect cozy night cocktail for you! We’ve taken two of our FAVORITE beverages, added some blood orange flare, and mixed them all together to give you our Blood Orange Bourbon Bubbly featuring our Ogio Prosecco! We understand that the name is kind of extra, but when you taste (and honestly when you just LOOK at the prettiness) this drink, you’ll see that the name was warranted.

Here’s what you’ll need:
-Ogio Prosecco
-1 shot bourbon of your choice (we went with Maker’s!)
-Bai Bubbles in blood orange
-Orange slices
-Mint leaves
-Cranberries


And here’s how you do it:
In a glass over ice, pour 1 part Bai bubbles until glass is about 1/3 full. Next, add 1 shot of bourbon. Top with Ogio Prosecco. Finish with an orange slice on the rim, and garnish with mint leaves and cranberries!

Oh my LAWD isn’t she BEAUTIFUL!? And the taste matches the look, too! The bourbon mixed with the bubbles is just the right amount of comfort paired with celebration. And what’s not to celebrate right now — the weirdest year in history is wrapping up and the holidays are ALL THE WAY HERE! YAAAAS!

We cannot wait to hear how much you love this one! Let us know how you enjoy it when you make it! And as per usual, you can check out our instagram @corksandcheers for the video on how to make it!

Cheers!

Ogio Creamsicle Mimosa

Okay, y’all…how is everyone holding up!? We are DEEP into this wild quarantine season and speaking from experience, some of us are ready to lose our minds, right!? Which is where we come in! Who’s ready for an April pick-me-up?!

Today we’re sharing our to-die-for Ogio Creamsicle Mimosas and y’all — these things put the OG mimosas to shame! The recipe is super easy, and the taste is DE-LISH!

Here’s what you’ll need:
Ogio Prosecco
Heavy Cream
Orange Juice
Oranges to garnish

And here’s how you make it:
It’s honestly a normal mimosa, with the addition of heavy cream. We started by pouring our OJ into a champagne flute, followed by the heavy cream, and topped with our Prosecco. As far as amounts, you can kind of eyeball it & adjust to taste. We, of course, are big believers in more Prosecco than OJ, but you do you! Garnish with orange slices and enjoy! SO smooth, so delicious.

We are obsessed with this one! It really is like a creamsicle in a cup and is the PERFECT drink to transition us into those warmer temps (and hopefully out of quarantine, right!?) This is a great option to enjoy with brunch OR as a dessert after a meal! Whichever way you decide to enjoy it, we know you won’t be disappointed!

Cheers!

We love this quote from Lena’s Kitchen Blog:

“If you’re new to Prosecco or don’t really understand the difference between Italian Prosecco and French Champagne, let’s just say Prosecco is Champagne’s fresh, young, and vibrant younger cousin with a delicious and less sharp flavor profile.”

Let’s have fun this Holiday Season not only sharing these cocktails and appetizers, but creating moments and memories with friends and family.
