The liveliest little cocktail that you will enjoy all summer…I PROMISE! I mean it’s my new “go to” light summer sipper! In this recent heatwave I’ve been enjoying club soda, on the rocks, in a wine glass, with a wedge of lemon..but, hey, this is a wee bit more festive!

Adult Beverage Lemon Prosecco Cocktail

1 bottle Prosecco, chilled
1 cup vodka, chilled
1 pint lemon sorbet
Lemon wedges for garnish

Combine Prosecco and vodka in small pitcher.
Place scoop of lemon sorbet in each of 4 wine glasses.
Pour Prosecco mixture over sorbet.
Top with a lemon wedge.

Adult Beverage Lemon Prosecco Cocktail Sorbet

Author’s Notes: I prefer my lemon wedge squeezed and in the glass, rather than on the glass rim. Also, I use this wonderful sorbet “SorBabes” brand, Jam’n Lemon flavor. It is made with real lemons and lemon zest that pumps up the flavor to unexpected levels of happiness. Enjoy, and…happy almost weekend!

from Pink’s website

Yesterday was spent with The Don, Mother, Gray, Marc, and that darling Liam.  McCormick & Schmick’s was the venue.  Gray pops up with a Mother’s and Father’s Day surprise for the Pink concert in Boston!  Flaberghast! (According to Urban Dictionary…”an action of being amazed”) And in case the day couldn’t offer additional greatness, Brenton, in her absence mailed us cards via the manager and sent our favorite champagne. Brilliant! (According to Urban Dictionary…the British use this to compliment “outstanding performance, concept, or product”)  Uhh, the waiter wasn’t shabby either!  As Marc quipped “Did Brenton order the waiter too?”  FABULOUS!

Pink, Cheers, Love, Peace!
