Tips:

  • Choose fresh, vibrant poinsettias: The key to a successful Poinsettia Sipper is using fresh, vibrant poinsettias. Look for poinsettias with deep, rich colors and healthy leaves.
  • Use a mortar and pestle to crush the poinsettia petals: This will help release the poinsettia's flavor and color. If you don't have a mortar and pestle, you can use a blender or food processor, but be careful not to over-process the petals.
  • Use a light-colored spirit: A light-colored spirit, such as vodka or gin, will allow the poinsettia's color to shine through. However, you can use any type of spirit you like.
  • Sweeten the drink to taste: The amount of sugar or simple syrup you add will depend on your personal preference. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
  • Garnish the drink with a poinsettia petal: This will add a festive touch to your drink and make it even more Instagram-worthy.

The Poinsettia Sipper is a beautiful and festive cocktail that is perfect for any holiday party. It's easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. So next time you're looking for a festive drink to serve, give the Poinsettia Sipper a try. You won't be disappointed!
