Happy New Year Cranberry Champagne Cocktail

January 1, 2019 By Elizabeth@ Pine Cones and Acorns 9 Comments

Good afternoon! A happy New Years Eve to you. I hope that you had a great weekend. I have been on a “staycation” since Christmas and I have loved every minute. It has been so nice to have a week with no plans, no jumping out of bed to go to the gym, staying up late(last night I was up until 2:00 am reading), sleeping in, eating junk food, going for long walks or just sitting by the fire. I am enjoying the waning hours of 2018 because there are big changes happening in my life in 2019 and although I am a little anxious about them I am excited as well. 

Do you have plans for New Years Eve? I personally have never, ever been a fan of going out on New Years. I like to have people over for dinner and drinks, or to be with family. More often than not we stay at home, make dinner and are in bed before the “ball drops” in Time Square. 

If you are having a party and need a last minute cocktail idea you might enjoy this one, it has all of my favorite flavors, cranberry, lime, vodka, 

Cranberry Cocktail

4 ounces vodka 

1/2 an ounce of Cointreau

8 ounces sweetened cranberry juice

Freshly squeezed lime juice (1 lime)

Rose champagne

Pour vodka, cranberry juice, cointreau and lime juice into acocktail shaker, add ice and shake until mixed. Pour the mixture into a glassand then top up it off with the champagne.  Add cranberries for  for garnish.

I hope that you have a wonderful and safe evening if you are headed out and all the best for a happy, healthy New Year!

    that looks delicious. Do you buy the small bottles of champagne/prosecco ? Reason is the small ones are so much more expensive BUT the big ones only stay good for at the most 2 days…and in recipes like this you use such a small amount.

      I usually buy the big ones. For a recipe like this just buy inexpensive Rose champagne, they have some very tasty ones at Aldi and Lidle or one sale at your store. Also, there are some really great "lids" that you can put on your champagne after you open them and they will last for at least 5 days. Have a happy new year.

“Learn to love and appreciate the good in others “Learn to love and appreciate the good in others.” Good afternoon friends, it’s the last day of February, which is called heart month, not only for Valentine’s Day but for heart health as well. Just because we are turning the calendar page doesn’t mean we should forget that A). We should love and appreciate each other and B). To take care of our hearts! Did you know that heart disease is the leading cause of death in women? Ladies if you don’t take care of yourself no one else can, eat right and get moving, cardio vascular exercise is great for your heart! Have a great day! #heart #hearthealth #vintagestyle #love #heartshaped #scrabbletiles #handmade #handcarved

This is how I feel tonight, as if I am seeing life This is how I feel tonight, as if I am seeing life through the blur of tears and sorrow. Sunday night my friend of 34 years lost her husband of 36 years, because of Covid he did not get to meet or hold his newborn grandson. Then just an hour ago we received a call that my husbands best friend died of a massive heart attack this morning. Sometimes life just knocks you to your knees and all you can do is pray for the  loved ones you’ve lost, cherish their memories and let your time with them sustain you until you meet again. Then you ask God for the strength to get up and move forward. #life #loss #givemestrength #givemestrengthlord #pray
Although I see signs of spring, a daffodil popping Although I see signs of spring, a daffodil popping up from the ground, bright and colorful flowers in the garden center the weather and the calendar tell me otherwise. So I am hunkering down and taking solace inside enjoying the details of a collected home and life. This tapestry is a piece that we purchased over 25 years ago in Paris, it hang in the dining room and makes me smile every time I see it because it reminds me of such a happy and beautiful place. What do you collect? What brings you joy in your home? #collectedhome #collectedlook #homedecor #myhome #homesweethome #interiordesign #frenchprovincial #france #frenchdecor #tapestry #instahome #instahomedecor #acolectedlife #collection
Good afternoon friends, it’s a frigid day here. Good afternoon friends, it’s a frigid day here. How is it in your “neck of the woods?” We took a long road-trip a few weeks ago to the beautiful @colonialwmsburg . I love this place, there is so much to see and do and even wearing masks and social distancing you can still enjoy the history and the beauty of this living museum. Today I am home doing the weekend chores, and of course doing a little baking. I hope that you have a fabulous weekend. #colonialwilliamsburg #williamsburg #colonialhouse #livinghistory #livinghistorymuseum #museum #winterfun #roadtrip #wanderlust #weekend #weekendvibes #weekendmood

“If winter comes, can spring be far behind?” ~ “If winter comes, can spring be far behind?” ~Percy Bysshe Shelly  my answer to that is I hope not! This has been a strange winter and I am sure that for the 4 million people without power in19 states they are hoping spring is sooner rather than later. I hope that you are all well and keeping safe. I’m praying for all of you without power and heat and hope it is restored soon. #pinkaesthetic #art #acrylicpainting #painting #details #artistsoninstagram #artwork #artworld #color #artoftheday #quote #quoteoftheday #quotestoliveby #artofinstagram
