It’s the most, wonderful time of the week: CHAMPAGNE THURSDAY!
And while this particular cocktail doesn’t call for champagne, I hope you are somewhere cheersing your early Friday drinks toward a happy weekend!

Merry Berry Christmas Sugar Cocktail:

 Muddle 5 fresh raspberries, blueberries, 2 fresh blackberries, light agave nectar, mint leaves, ginger ale & lime juice in a cocktail shaker. Stir in crushed ice and vodka. Cover with lid, and shake vigorously until thoroughly chilled (7 to 10 seconds). Pour mixture into a 16-oz. glass, and top with ginger ale if desired. Garnish with mint.

It’s been a minute since we’ve all enjoyed the sweet sips of Champagne Thursdays! And with the holidays upon us, the champagne recipe options are {virtually} endless! Cheers to a wonderful Champagne Thursday this week!!!

So maybe I’m a little late to the bar cart party but hey, I’m here & ready to get my drink trolley on. Since moving, I’ve been searching high & low for the perfect bar cart and it’s Champagne Thursday so dive in to these cute carts for sipping inspiration.

 We visited the Girl & The Goat while we were in Chicago and I sipped on their “Best of Three” and I loved it so much that I thought I would share the recipe! I usually drink Pimm’s with Sprite or Ginger Ale but according to their website they add vodka and use lime juice. Of course, this isn’t the exact recipe they served me so I had to tweak it a bit :::

Pimm’s No. 1

Tito’s Vodka

Fresh Lime Juice

Cucumber

We’re jet setting to Austin, Texas today for a very special champagne Thursday! It’s my best friend, Ashley’s Bacehlorette party weekend! Let the debauchery begin!

 It’s {finally} Champagne Thursday!!! I discovered this recipe on Pinterest and thought it was pretty perfect for summer {light, limey & cool}.

You’ll need:

1 bottle Sake {Sake is very light and comparatively free of hangover-causing congeners}

1 bottle Extra Dry Champagne

1 large bunch mint leaves

Juice of 3-4 limes

6-10 droppers full of Liquid Stevia (more or less to taste)

First, tear the mint leaves off the stem. In a large pitcher, use the back of a wooden spoon to muddle the mint leaves, stevia, and lime juice. Then add the entire bottle of Sake and entire bottle of Champagne. Stir the mixture and serve over lots of ice in rocks glasses or mason jars.
