Modern Drunkard to win cocktail contest?

Postby Rogue Bottle Slinger » Thu Jan 15, 2009 3:20 pm

You can make it happen!

I went and entered a Prosecco Cocktail Recipe Contest and the finalists are determined by public vote!

The recipe is designed to taste good while being insidiously potent to the amateur drinker:

THE CHANGE OF SEASONS

INGREDIENTS:
1/2 oz fresh squeezed and strained grapefruit juice (ruby red preferred)
1 oz good quality pear brandy
6 1/2 oz Mionetto's IL Prosecco
Ice (for chilling)
Grapefruit Zest Curl

PREPARATION:
Chill an 8 oz Manhattan Glass, rub rim with grapefruit zest.

In small shaker mix grapefruit juice and pear brandy with a few ice cubes, swirl to chill.

Pour juice/brandy combination into manahattan glass, top with Prosecco.

Garnish with grapefruit zest curl.

Quite tasty, though since entering I have decided a dash of simple syrup puts it over the tops. alas alas

The site to vote on is . . .

my recipe is way the hell down the page and called The Change of Seasons, there's a button next to the recipe to vote. Help a Modern Drunkard (albeit a rarely posting one) out. Vote early and often and tell all your friends!

I want to give you this vote but it wasn't on the page.
I am a big greyhound fan especially with Absolut Ruby Red

I like the cocktail.

Please. How do I vote?
