• 3 teaspoons of simple syrup
• 12 fresh mint leaves
• 3 ounces of fresh lime juice

• 1/8 cup Cranberry juice
• Champagne or sparkling wine

Muddle the syrup, mint, and lime together in a shaker. Add the ice, vodka, and cup cranberry juice. Shake well. Pour the mixture into champagne glasses, and top off with champagne or wine. Garnish with mint.

Strawberry-Rose Gin Fizz

This gorgeous strawberry-rose gin fizz created by Dessert for Two is perfect for moms who want something a bit stronger than Champagne, but with the delicate flavors of rosewater and strawberries.

Ingredients:

• 6 strawberries
• 2 teaspoons of sugar
• 4 shots of gin
• 1 teaspoon of rose water
• A pinch of salt
• 1/2 cup of club soda (or to taste)

First, wash and de-stem the strawberries. Next, dice into extremely small pieces. Sprinkle sugar over the strawberries, and let them sit for 5 minutes. After, mash the strawberries with a fork to release their juices. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice, then add the strawberry mixture, the gin, rose water, and the smallest pinch of salt. Shake well, and then divide the cocktail between two glasses. Top off each glass with club soda, and squeeze a lime wedge into each glass.

Pear Hibiscus Brunch Cocktail

To make this cocktail, place the hibiscus flower in the bottom of a champagne glass. Then, add the pear vodka to the glass. Top off the glass with champagne. Serve immediately.
