"Pucker-Up" Punch
Happy Valentine's Day! As I waited for N to get home from work to celebrate with me, I got a little antsy (and thirsty..) . Too early for cocktails, I decided to make myself something juicy to tide me over.
I squeezed a whole orange and set aside the juice...
Then I rolled the rim of my glass in the fresh orange juice and dipped it into red sugar ( I happened to have it on hand in with my decorating sprinkles).
I poured the orange juice into the glass over a couple of ice-cubes and added 1 cup of cranberry juice. I also popped a couple of maraschino cherries in there with the juice;) and used the extra cherries as a garnish.
Delicious! I loved the freshness of this mixture and it really did make my lips pucker a bit;) Just the right amount of sour...this would be great with a little vodka as well.
This looks like a nice drink for spring!
