I have recently prepared a cocktail that combines three of my favourite ingredients.
Some of the best recipes are born this way: you like something but you don’t know how it will taste when mixed together with other ingredients. You try, eventually also fail a few times, before you get something good. In my case the risk involved mixing pears, honey and Prosecco.
I had all the ingredients leftover from New Year’s eve so I could start mixing them without leaving home for shopping. You are not wrong if you consider laziness as an ingredient of this cocktail. Though this approach is not highly professional, it led me many times to make a virtue of necessity with good result.
New Year’s Eve, when all around the world people celebrate the beginning of something they would like to be different and better, by eating and drinking more.
Am I too cynical? Maybe. Anyway I am not going to propose alternatives to the excesses of your party but just tell you something about bubbles.

And more often you see people create cocktails in the comfort of their own homes. You should make sure that you and your friends look the part when you gather around the table and see the night through with your favourite cocktail drinks.
