Nothing pleases guests more on a sticky day than a frozen treat to keep them feeling cool. With lush gardens as your scenery during those sun-soaked brunches, why not serve a lip-smacking dessert with a kick? A Blooming Fizz allows you to mix tart lemon sorbet with fizzy champagne and very potent St. Germain Elderflower liqueur, resulting in an unforgettable thirst quencher that not only looks good, but is also refreshing and downright addicting. Unlike other cocktails, Blooming Fizz highlights floral-themed ingredients, all ideal to create a luscious fragrance that accentuates its sweetness without bikini-busting sugar. Plus, who doesn’t love a glass of bubbly during the day? It’s no wonder bartenders are giving usual Mimosas a break! Incredibly aromatic and extremely delicious, Blooming Fizz is the reason why we crave for summer. Friday June 17th Drink of The Week - The Blood Orange Freeze
