Holiday Spirits

This past weekend I headed out to do a little shopping for a dinner party. More importantly I was shopping for the perfect cocktail to feed my guests. I get over whelmed with all the spicy cocktails out there that are typical holiday ones, so I wanted to try something brighter and different. I slipped on my trusty flats to head out and run my errands. I headed to the Reading Terminal Market for my ingredients.
I wanted to create a drink that was special to Philadelphia, so Brian suggested I try Rhuby. It’s made right here. It’s based on an old Pennsylvania recipe which is kind of awesome. Nothing like bringing a little vintage into our cocktails. I decided to make the Black Rhuby Lemonade.
You will need:
2 Parts RHUBY // 2 Parts blackberries // few basil leaves // sparkling lemonade
I muddled the berries, basil and RHUBY in a glass. Add ice and sparkling lemonade and stir.
Then strain the drink into your cocktail glasses and garnish with some fresh berries and basil leafs.
A bright, alternative to the traditional holiday spirit.
love the color combo here! and that brahmin bag is amazing, you look gorg!!
Love the tree in the background and your bag is FABULOUS! I have a new-found affinity for all things Brahmin!
Love your outfit…specially those flats!
As a native Pennsylvanian I would just like to say Rhuby is amazing! The cocktails always taste so good, and if done right, they look beautiful too!
