Welcome to this year's blog project, Friday Night Cocktails. I am not much of a cocktail drinker as I never had much on hand to make them with and I thought this would be a great excuse to get mixing. Friday night is when we come home, have a glass or two of wine and chillax on the couch after a long week at work, this will be the same, except we will have a cocktail in hand, which may mean we have to rethink the couch/tv thing as cocktails usually call for a little more glamour.
Are you wondering what to do with all that left over sparkling from New Years? How about trying a Scotch Fizz:
1 shot Single Malt Scotch Whisky
1/2 shot Cointreau
Sparkling
Shake Scotch and Cointreau with ice, serve into champagne flute and top with sparkling.
Hubby: Gives champers a kick with a slight after burn thanks to the Scotch. 4/5
Me: Refreshing and ideal for a little something extra, enhances the dryness of the sparkling and leaves a little orange aftertaste in your mouth. 4.5/5
Perfect for: A pre dinner drink or sitting at a bar sipping slowly, not one to share with the girls.
Try it: When your Hubby wants Scotch and when you are over all the sweetness of most cocktails.
