Blood Orange French 75

Blood Orange French 75

Blood Orange French 75. NYE is all about champagne cocktails. This year we went for a twist on the classic French 75. This cocktail is easy, it’s delicious, and super festive. This simple mix with the fresh blood orange juice and bubbly is, well, really really good. And anything with blood Orange and champagne on NYE has my name written all over it!! Happy New Year’s Eve guys, thank you all for a great year !! Cheers ;)

I cannot believe 2020 has finally come to an end, and come tomorrow we will be all about 2021. I think we are all pretty ready for a fresh start this year.

New Years Eve may be looking a little or a lot different for some of you this year. I know it certainly is looking different for me. However, I thought the best way to end the year was with some good food and of course bubbly!

So, to send 2020 on its way to the past, we made these fun and delicious Blood Orange French 75’s. You can’t do NYE without champagne, it’s kind of a staple. But let’s make bubbly festive with this blood orange cocktail! Blood oranges are super fun and festive, not to mention they make any drink or dish look pretty. And after all, it is blood orange season so got to get them while they’re here!

So what cocktails are you guys having this NYE?! Any fun plans?! We're having a low key family night. A little different than NYE has looked for in a few years, but I am excited to make the most of it with delicious foods and of course good cocktails like this one!
