Holiday Cheer: Cherry Blossom

Sweeter than sugar plums, this unique drink is the perfect one to toast at any occasion. Served in champagne flutes, the Cherry Blossom can be a great twist on the classic champagne toast without losing any of the bubbly. Made with Luksusowa Cherry vodka, it’s a little more flavourful than your standard champagne with lots of body to give the drink substance.

The vanilla syrup takes a little extra work but it is well worth it- everyone will be asking you to pass on this recipe! Garnish with a vanilla stick and the drinks will be as pretty as the friends and family you’re toasting with.
