Ringing in the New Year ● Palm Springs style
Better late then never!
I previously posted a few photos of the persimmon liqueur I was making at the end of last year. Well, life got in the way of me getting to this specific post, but we did in fact create a New Years Eve cocktail with the persimmon liqueur that was totally inspired by Palm Springs. After spending a mellow Christmas holiday here in Venice we loaded up the car and hit the road for the desert. We checked into the Ace Hotel & Swim Club as per usual, jumped in the pool and then whipped up a little sparkling sunset treat on our patio. It seemed to fit in perfectly in there… it must have been that delicious peachy tone. (see recipe below)
The Sparkling 111
Ingredients:
Champagne or Prosecco chilled
Directions:
Pour about 1 Tablespoon of Persimmon Liqueur into each glass, then fill with Champagne or Prosecco. Serve immediately and repeat when necessary.

I am a great lover of persimmons and have a sentimental attachment to the flavor that goes back to childhood. I am going to have to make the liqueur and try this recipe.
