Orange Pomegranate Moscato Cocktail for this month’s Progressive Eats Dinner!  It’s a cocktail party!

I have about eleventy-seven things to celebrate and be thankful for.  Life is busier than ever and exciting things are happening for my life, my family and my business.  So this is the perfect time to say cheers and offer up a fabulous cocktail that is perfect for holiday entertaining!

I spent the weekend at the Chopped Conference in Kansas City and I hope to share all about it very soon.  It was my first conference and totally an amazing experience.

While I was gone, I got several messages that my site is not working correctly.  I hope to have this all fixed ASAP.  I’m much better in the kitchen than working out behind the scenes blog issues.  So please bear with me and I should have things working and improved this week.  I will be extending all of the current giveaways due to the crazy issues.  Thanks for your patience!

 

Now, lets get down to business about these cocktails.  My summer Strawberry Wine Punch is such a hit that I thought I needed a holiday version.  I used Moscato wine, orange juice and pomegranate juice with a splash of Sprite.  Easy, easy, easy.

Welcome to another edition of Progressive Eats, our virtual version of a progressive dinner party. If you’re unfamiliar with the concept, a progressive dinner involves going from house to house, enjoying a different course at each location. With Progressive Eats, a theme is chosen each month, members share recipes suitable for a delicious meal or party, and you can hop from blog to blog to check them out.

We have a core group of 12 bloggers, but we will always need substitutes and if there is enough interest would consider additional groups. To see our upcoming themes and how you can participate, please check out the schedule at Creative Culinary or contact Barb for more information.

GIVEAWAY!! This month’s theme is a Cocktail Party celebrating Creative Culinary’s 3rd year of Friday Cocktails. Be sure to hop over to Barb’s post where she is giving away a gorgeous wine bottle opener to one of our Progressive Eats readers.
