It’s time to raise a glass to another year that’s passed and we’ve rounded up some of our favourite drinks that will make your New Year’s Eve a delicious success with three of the year’s best new cocktail ingredients!
Disaronno Velvet
If you love decadent cocktails, look no further! The legendary amaretto, Disaronno, has launched the first-ever cream liqueur! And it’s so good – you don’t even need to make a cocktail – just pour it over ice and enjoy – but we’ll give you one anyway. This liquid luxury represents the Dolce Vita lifestyle with 500 years of tradition. It’s refreshingly smooth and creamy with the unmistakable taste of Disaronno. So, in addition to toasting with this liquid gold that’s complex and velvety on the palate – you can give the gift of Italian elegance too with this stunning snow white bottle.
White Velvet
1.5 oz Disaronno Velvet
0.75 oz Tia Maria
0.75 oz Vodka
Garnish: Chocolate flakes or coffee beans
Add all ingredients to a shaker with ice, shake and strain ingredients over ice.
Flor de Caña 15 YR Amber Rum
If you’re dreaming of a green Christmas, look no further than this stunning sustainable rum which launched earlier this year to rave reviews. Flor de Caña is the world’s only spirit that is Carbon Neutral and Fair Trade Certified and ideal for the eco-advocate you’ll be toasting with this month. They’re also distilled with 100% renewable energy and plant 50,000 trees each year with their partner One Tree Planted.
Flor-Sparkler:
1.5 oz of Flor de Caña Rum
2 oz of champagne or prosecco
¾ oz of fresh lime juice
¾ oz of simple syrup
2 dashes of Angostura bitters
Add ingredients to a champagne flute and top with prosecco, garnish with mint and raspberries.
Mott’s Reserve
For all the Caesar lovers, this one is for you! Considering 400 million Caesars were consumed in 2021, we think there’s no reason why you can’t toast to 2022 with a Casesar – especially an elevated one made with the all-new Mott’s Clamato Reserve! It’s made with natural ingredients and flavours and some fire roasted jalapeno puree to give it a little extra kick – which is just what 2022 needs to start-off right.
You can use the Reserve in the 1-2-3-4-5 method for creating the perfect Caesar: 1 oz. vodka / 2 dashes of hot sauce / 3 grinds of salt and pepper / 4 dashes of Worcestershire sauce / 5 oz. Mott’s Clamato Reserve.
