Joseph and I drove from Boston to DC for the holidays and decided it would be fun to bring our cat, Snoopy, with us. After 3 hours of yowling, she finally settled down and slept for the rest of the trip. Still, it was a long trip and we were thrilled when we finally pulled up to my parents’ place. Things improved even more when we got inside to find these cocktails and some awesome brie and apple compote toasts waiting for us, courtesy of my sister and brother-in-law.
The pomegranate-rosemary royale is made with a simple syrup infused with rosemary, giving it just a subtle herbal flavor while the pomegranate juice and Champagne make it both sweet and tart. Garnish with a sprig of rosemary and it’s pretty as can be. It’s just perfect for ringing in the New Year!
Happy New Year everyone! I hope your year is filled with happiness and good food and drink!
