Christmas cocktails

Give your Christmas party some added sparkle with Shloer

To celebrate the festive season, sparkling juice drink Shloer has been working closely with top mixologists to create an 11-strong range of fabulous Shloer cocktails - both soft and alcoholic – to add some “Sex and The City” style to any Christmas or New Year’s party.

The days of drinking cream liqueur or a nasty fortified wine are over. What us girls want on a night out – or in - is sophistication and glamour, which can be found by the bucket-load in Shloer’s new cocktail recipes.

The in-crowd will love the ‘Juniper and Clove Collins’, a twist on one of this year’s hottest cocktails, which muddles fresh juniper berries and cloves with premium gin, lemon juice and sugar syrup all shaken with the seasonal limited edition Red Grape, Elderberry and Clove Shloer to create a festive mulled wine-style long drink.

For the adventurous among us, try the ‘Santa’s Hat’, a luxurious blend of Chambord liqueur, Amaretto, and Red Grape, Elderberry and Clove Shloer, shaken vigorously with fresh lemon juice, delicious homemade pomegranate and honey syrup, and the piece de resistance - a dash of egg white - for a fluffy finish.

If you fancy staying hangover-free but still want something a bit sexier than a glass of orange juice, the ‘Shloer-p-a-licious’ uses fashionable fresh pomegranate while ‘Winter Wonderland’ is a wonderful and unusual blend of apple, cranberry juice, fresh mint and raspberries combined with Red Grape, Elderberry and Clove Shloer and… black pepper!

If you prefer popping a cork to shaking and stirring you'll love Shloer Bucks Fizz. This sassy non-alcoholic blend of white grape, orange and blood orange comes in a Champagne bottle ideal for those Christmas Day celebrations without the usual headache and, at only 29 cals per 100ml, is good for the waistline too. Like all Shloer products, it’s free from preservatives, artificial sweeteners, colours and flavours.

All 11 cocktail recipes, including photos, are available on the www.shloer.com website. Shloer Red Grape, Elderberry and Clove (1 litre) and Shloer Bucks Fizz (75cl) are available in all major super markets from November, RRP £1.99.
