New Year’s Eve Cocktails 3 Ways

by Roxy, So Vegan December 30, 2017

Champagne Margarita

We can’t quite believe 2017 is nearly over! What an incredible 12 months.

We’ve learned so much about vegan food over the past year and we can’t wait to continue this journey into 2018. Thanks to everyone for all the support, it really means a lot to us!

And what better way to see out an amazing year than with some delicious cocktails?

We decided to share with you three recipes for our favourite new year’s eve cocktails. These drinks are super simple and great way to spoil yourself (and friends) at a party.

Don’t forget not all alcohol is vegan. Make sure you check the labels and, if necessary, research brands in advance to make sure you’re buying vegan-friendly products.

Happy new year! Stay tuned for more recipes in 2018.

Champagne Margarita

Champagne Margarita

First up is our recipe for a Champagne margarita. This is the perfect way to kick-start a new-year’s eve party.

You want to serve these margaritas as cold as possible, so only take the prosecco or Champagne out of the refrigerator when you need it.

Old Fashioned

Old Fashioned

The Old Fashioned cocktail has become really popular over the past few years.

Old Fashioned

It’s a simple cocktail but there’s still a lot to get right. Make sure you stir the whisky, bitters and sugar until the sugar has pretty much dissolved, otherwise you won’t capture enough sweetness.

Likewise, the trick is stir the ice just enough so the water begins to dilute the whisky, taking the edge off.

Espresso martinis are all about sourcing quality ingredients. If don’t have an espresso machine, try to use good quality coffee.
