"Whether you're planning to host holiday dinner or a bright-and-early Christmas brunch, there's an easy and impressive cocktail that can make any gathering a breeze. The poinsettia cocktail is a red-toned version of a mimosa that is altogether tart, citrusy, sweet, and bubbly. This version, as developed by Michelle McGlinn, layers the flavors of pomegranate, cranberry, and citrus with ginger beer and Prosecco for a cocktail that is balanced with sweet and spicy flavor."
"Add simple syrup to a small bowl or plate and coat rosemary on all sides. Place rosemary on a plate and let set for 20-25 minutes, until tacky. Add sugar to a small bowl or plate and press rosemary into the sugar gently to coat. To make the cocktail, add the juice and Cointreau to a Champagne flute. Top with ginger beer and Prosecco. Garnish with cranberries and the sugared rosemary sprig to serve."
The poinsettia cocktail is a red-toned mimosa-style drink that pairs tart cranberry and pomegranate with bright citrus and effervescence. The recipe layers cranberry-pomegranate juice and Cointreau with ginger beer and Prosecco to achieve balanced sweet and spicy notes. Garnish preparation involves coating a rosemary sprig in simple syrup, letting it set, and pressing it into granulated sugar for a sugared rosemary accent. The cocktail is served in a Champagne flute, topped with ginger beer and Prosecco, and finished with cranberries and the sugared rosemary for festive presentation.
