The Oscars is a very special night here in LA, as well as the perfect excuse to throw a “whole-nine-yards” extravaganza! I think we can all agree that nothing says glam like champagne. If you are hosting a party and need a knock-your-socks off cocktail to impress your guests, then you’ll totally wanna try this fabulous twist on the classic cocktail, the Kir Royale.
Simone’s Golden Kir Royale Recipe
1 oz. Chambord or Creme de cassis
Champagne
Easy Leaf edible gold powder (you can find this at Surfas in Culver City)
Mixing the Cocktail:
1) Garnish the rim of a champagne flute with the Easy Leaf edible gold powder. 2) Pour Chambord or Creme de cassis into the rimmed champagne glass. 3) Fill the glass the rest of the way with champagne.
In case you missed our newsletter here are some more fun tips you might wanna try for your Oscar Soiree:
Serve a signature drink. Rename your cocktails after the night’s honorees. Here is another one of my cocktail recipes you should totally check out.
Load up on bite-size movie snacks. Because an Oscar party centersaround the television, you’ll want plenty of hand-held snacks insteadof an elaborate meal. As a rule, you can’t go wrong with three salty snacks and three sweet ones. Don’t forget to place your order for customized Smuffin’s as one of the sweet ones!
Play Along! Download a ballot from Evite, let guests fill it out pre-party, and award Oscar-themed prizes for the winners at the end of the night.
