Mmmm… cocktails. It is the weekend, so what better time to put your feet up, mix a drink and spend some quality time on your couch? If throwing on a fabulous frock and some killer heels is more your style, get out your cocktail shaker and stir something yummy before a night on the town.

This week I’m indulging in Cointreau Noir, a decadent brand extension of Cointreau (the one you soak strawberries in for a deliciously naughty dessert), consisting of orange liquor and Fine Champagne Cognac. 

At last weeks launch at Captain Melville, we were able to indulge in some delightful Cointreau cocktails, including Sangria. Delightful!

But my fave was the Cointreau Noir and Apple-Soda, and now you can make it at home….

60ml Cointreau Noir
120ml cloudy apple juice
60ml club soda
Pour ingredients over ice in a highball glass.
Stir briefly and garnish with a slice of Fuji apple.

Remember, drink responsibly!
