Last weekend the Very Tolerant Husband and I had a late Valentine's day meal. We'd had a really busy couple of weeks, with house guests and birthdays, so thought we take time to have a special meal together the two of us.
I kicked things off with new cocktail. It was so good that I made it again this weekend when my little sister, brother in law and their gorgeous daughter came to stay. My sister and BiL thought that it tasted of Christmas, but I think that it's just the cointreau that made them think that. It's a lovely cocktail for any time of year and it's a gorgeous colour.
The Garnet
2x measures of vodka
1x measure of cointreau
2x measures of pomegranate juice
12 blueberries
Teaspoon of honey
Splash of lime juice
Muddle together the blueberries and honey, add the other ingredients before shaking over ice. Double sieve into cocktail slippers and garnish with blueberries on a cocktail stick.
