Golden Globes Inspired Cocktails

With the Golden Globes just around the corner, I wanted to share some fun nominee themed cocktails to celebrate in style. Whether you're headed to a viewing party or just snuggling in at home to watch, these cocktails will have everyone raining their glasses. 

A Star Is Born- Gaga Highball

This is a twist on a classic highball that's perfect for toasting Lady Gaga's Golden Globe nom. 

3/4 oz gin

3/4 oz brandy

3/4 oz dry vermouth

5 oz ginger ale

Pour all ingredients into a chilled highball glass and garnish with a lemon twist.

The Favourite- Queen Anne Cocktail

This delicate floral cocktail will have you feeling positively royal. 

2 oz vodka

1/2 oz lemon juice

2 teaspoons maraschino liquor

1/4 oz Creme De Violette

Shake all of these ingredients with ice and pour into a chilled glass. Garnish with a lemon twist and a maraschino cherry. 

Crazy Rich Asians- 24kt Singapore Sling

Transport your tastebuds to Singapore with a little twist on a classic drink. 

2 shots pineapple

1 shot gin

Squeeze of lime

Shake these ingredients together and strain into an ice filled glass. Then add a splash of seltzer and garish with a lime slice. To make this drink extra flashy, we like to rim the glass in gold sugar. 

Mary Poppins- Spoonful of Sugar Shot

Keep things sweet with this simple shot made of frosting and vodka (sounds weird, but tastes delicious)

1 cup of frosting ( vanilla or chocolate depending on your preference )

2-4 oz of vodka ( depending on how strong you want them )

This recipe will make 4-6 shots and to make the mixing easier, it's a good idea to heat the frosting a bit to prevent clumps. Finish your shots by dipping the rims in honey and then dipping them in sprinkles. 

 

Black Panther- Wakanda Cocktail

This purple cocktail is inspired by the heart shaped herb in the movie

1 oz pineapple rum

1 oz coconut rum

1 oz lavender syrup

1/2 oz currant syrup

Combine all ingredients and strain into a glass over ice. Garnish with a pink edible flower.
