Of course, I don’t condone excessive drinking any day of the year, but I must say, I do love some fun drinks – especially on New Year’s Eve! Surprisingly, when I looked around the internet, I had a tough time finding anything great. So, I thought I would put together my own list of fun New Year’s Eve Drinks!
The first two are from my good friend Sophie Frye, her son Yani is an award winning mixologist. She was kind enough to share his winning drink recipes! Enjoy – but be careful…
The Room Key
- 1.5 oz Angostura
- 5 Year Rum
- .5 oz elderflower liqueur
