July is national Ice Cream month & Blueberry month! Who knew? So in honor of this special month I wanted to share a specialty drink that honors both and features our summertime obsession, Ciao Bella Gelato!
BLUEBERRY LEMON DROP
2 oz. citrus vodka
1 oz. Cointreau
2 oz. lemonade
Ciao Bella Blueberry Sorbet
Sugar Rim
Combine the top three ingredients in a cocktail shaker and shake vigorously. When ready, pour slowly
into a chilled martini glass with sugared rim, leaving room at the top. Add one small scoop of
blueberry sorbet
Are you Lusciously Wild?
I couldn’t just stop there, I had to share these two specialty drinks with you too! They are perfect for summertime BBQ’s, Birthday Parties and Girlfriend Get-togethers. If you can’t decide whether to bring dessert or drinks, just bring both! I am looking forward to trying all of these custom specialty drinks in our Secret Style Suite at BlogHer, my mouth is just watering thinking about it!
PRICKLY BELLINI
Bottle of Brut Rose Cava
Ciao Bella Prickly Pear Sorbet
Freeze some wide mouth champagne or red wine glasses.
Fill half way with the chilled Cava (the cold glasses will make them foam up so pour slowly!)
Then delicately place one small scoop of the sorbet in to each glass.
Are you delicately Juicy?
GINGER PEACH MARGARITA
1 pint Ciao Bella Ginger Peach Sorbet
1 pint Ciao Bella Lemon Zest Sorbet
1 c. lime juice 2 c. tequila (white or golden)
1⁄2 c. Cointreau Ice cubes Salt (optional)
Place all ingredients in a blender and pulse until smooth. (Add water as needed.)
Are you Succulently Spiced?
