It’s no secret we love a glass of fizz over at xameliax so I’ve teamed up with Freixenet to create this amazing Christmas cocktail with ginger and orange flavours perfect for sipping with your turkey!
There are lots of things I love about Christmas and food is one of them – pate, cheese boards, mince pies, pigs in blankets and of course Gingerbread! I had a go at making Gingerbread Men for the first time this year and they went down such a storm (check out my recipe here!) they inspired this drink – The Gingerbread Fizz Cocktail!
I love a cold bottle of Freixenet too, it was the first cava I ever fell in love with and we always have a bottle or two knocking around in case a cork needs popping.
What You’ll Need
1.5 Tsp Ginger Syrup (you can get this out of a jar of stem ginger)
1 Tsp Triple Sec
1 Bottle of Freixenet
Orange Peel for Garnish…and optional Gingerbread Man to snack on!
How To
- Pour your Ginger Syrup into your favourite flute (ours are from the LSA International Bar collection – affiliate link)
- Add the triple sec
- Top with Freixenet to about 3/4’s full and stir with a bar spoon until mixed
- Top up the glass with more Freixenet and garnish with an orange peel twist!
What you’re left with is a subtly spicy orange infused glass of bubbly that’s perfect for sipping before your Christmas dinner to get you in the festive mood, or afterwards to help settle that food baby!
Give my gingerbread cocktail a go yourself this festive season and let us know what you think – don’t forget your Gingerbread Men too!!
