For New Year’s Eve I like to serve a creative cocktail when guests walk through the door and pour pure sparkling wine for the countdown.
RUBY SLIPPER
2 oz. sparkling wine
21/2 oz. cranberry-flavored vodka
11/2 oz. ruby port
1 oz. lemon or lime juice
1/2 oz. simple syrup
Shake with ice, strain, and garnish with orange slice
