A good sparkling rose cocktail made with Cointreau, mint, orange slices and chopped strawberries. So refreshing, easy to make and full of spring/summer flavours. Cheers!
Because it's the weekend….
Who else is so excited it's Saturday? No work, the weather is beautiful and time to chill! Personally, we love to make our weekends a little extra special than any other day of the week and that sometimes (quite often) involves a cheeky little cocktail or two.
Step in Cointreau Rose Cocktail with chopped strawberries (obv). This cocktail is easy and is made with only 3-4 ingredients depending on your preference and need for pretty things…ME.
Who else hates when cocktails sound good but you then have to go and buy 4-5 different and always expensive liqueurs? So annoying!
We want a cocktail that doesn't involve 100 different things yet still tastes so good like our Sparkling Limoncello Cocktail. Well, let us tell you that this pretty rose cocktail is that, it has a good orange, sparkling rose flavour and you have boozy strawberries to eat at the end!
Gotta have your 5 a day, right!?
How To Make This Cointreau Rose Cocktail
Fill up a tumbler or wine glass halfway with ice. Pour in half a shot of Cointreau liqueur (add a full shot if you want it a little stronger but try it first).
Top up with sparkling rose wine to an acceptable level….We'll let you be the judge and stir.
Finally add a large slice of orange, chopped strawberries and a sprig of mint. Tip: We also added some edible flowers to make it extra pretty.
Top Tip: If you don't have sparkling rose wine you can use normal rose wine and top with soda water.
