Holiday Cocktail Recipe featuring Empress Gin. The holidays are a great time to share fun festive cocktails. I was recently introduced to Empress Gin, which is available at your local liquor stores and even Target! It’s unique color caught my eye and the spicy notes make the perfect introduction to your holiday entertaining. During the distilling process this gin is infused with vibrantly colored butterfly pea flower petals, which attribute to its lush violet blue color. Although do not let the floral fool you, as it has a distinctive herbal earthiness to its flavor.
I am not a mixologist, and as many of you know, I have a two-drink maximum. However, I could not pass on the opportunity to share with you this easy to make holiday cocktail that will impress your guests with an enjoyable holiday presentation and make them feel special.
