Ready to kick it up another notch? It is time to ring in the New Year and say goodbye to the old. Wow that year went way too fast but I am looking forward to everything that the new year will bring. Tonight I have decided to make an array of sparkling drinks. When I was planning out what I wanted to make, I decided to make several fruit purees that my guest could then add to their champagne. So, my drink offerings tonight will be super simple because you can prepare the drink purees ahead of time. Upgrade your champagne for the New Years Eve with this super easy recipe then you will have more time to party with family and friends.
