Hosting a holiday party and need a simple, yet crowd pleasing beverage for your guests? Doesn’t get easier than the poinsettia. Pour your ingredients in a fillable ornament for some aesthetic bonus points and you are good to go. Can make the ornaments in advanced and store them in the fridge until your guests arrive. Cheers!

Pour sparkling wine in a champagne flute or wine glass. In a separate container, add the cranberry, pomegranate, and Cointreau. Stir to mix together and then pour into champagne flute. Garnish with a rosemary sprig. For a fun holiday twist, have ingredients inside of a fillable ornament for your guests to pour into their own champagne glasses. Check out my video for a visual representation on how this looks.

Editor's Note

Cranberry and pomegranate juices provide a tart, festive base for this sparkling holiday spritz. Cointreau adds a subtle orange depth that pairs perfectly with the bubbles.
