Organic, HOLIDAY Cocktail #3

This "Gingerbread Apple Cocktail" from Marie Claire looks so delicious! I modified the ingredients to be all Organic. HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!

Here is my organic version of the "Gingerbread Apple Cocktail"

• 2 oz. Koval Organic Ginger Liqueur
• 1 oz. Tru Organic Vanilla Vodka
• 2.5 oz. Organic Apple Cider
• A few drops of Organic Lemon Juice
• Organic Orange zest
• Organic Agave syrup

Line a chilled martini glass lightly with agave syrup on a dish followed by spiced graham cracker crumbs. Place all ingredients except for orange zest in a shaker and shake vigorously. Strain into glass. Freshly grate orange zest on drink and serve immediately.

Holiday, ORGANIC Cocktail #2

This minty Organic "Peppermint Patty" Holiday cocktail is fun and festive. I love the color and chocolate rim. Oh and I would use glass straws or the new compostable straws (no plastic please)!

Here is the Recipe for "Peppermint Patty" (substitute more organic ingredients)

• 1 ounce white or bittersweet chocolate
• 1 1/2 ounces organic vodka from someone like Bainbridge Organic Distillers
• 1/4 ounce green crème de menthe
• 1/2 ounce white crème de cacao
• 1/4 ounce simple syrup
• Sprig of fresh mint

Melt the chocolate on a saucer in the microwave on low. Roll the rim of the glass through the melted chocolate to create a chocolate “lip.” Combine all of the remaining ingredients (except for the garnish) in a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake to chill. Strain the cocktail into the chocolate-rimmed glass and garnish with fresh mint. ENJOY! Makes 1 servings.

• fresh rosemary sprigs
