ST. PATRICK’S DAY: Pot O’ Goldtini Cocktail Recipe
|
If you can’t find a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, you can drink a shot of gold from a bottle of Goldschläger. Goldschläger, created in Switzerland, is cinnamon schnapps with gold flakes of gold flakes floating throughout the bottle. While there are many Goldschläger cocktails, we think the nicest way to enjoy it is after St. Patrick’s dinner, with or without a cup of coffee. You can use Goldschläger to make a gold-flecked Martini, or you can buy gold flakes and make your own |

The gold flakes can be used for any culinary purpose, from garnishing candy, chocolate and baked goods to pasta and risotto. How about gold-flecked sushi with gold-flecked saké?
For drinks, think Champagne with gold flakes for a special toast; or a gold-flecked lemon-lime soda mocktail for the kids. If you’re in the chips, make gold flake drink rimmers. Ingredients Per Drink 1. COMBINE the ingredients in a mixing glass filled with ice cubes. 2. SHAKE and strain into a Martini glass. |
