New Year’s Eve Sparkling Gold Champagne Cocktails are glittering with real gold and bubbles, a festive chic sipper to ring in the New Year, Cheers!
Toast to all the luck in the world and serious goal conquering in the new year…
For these New Years Eve Sparkling Gold Champagne Cocktails, I used Goldschläger liquor but there are other brands that also have actual gold flakes for this glamorous night.
Edible gold leaf is made from 22-carat, 23-carat or 24-carat gold and silver alloy and is used in drinks, to decorate cakes, and for fancy desserts.
Glittering gold..
- Gold Shimmer Sugar
- Gold Goldschläger Vodka or Liquor with Gold Flakes
- 1 bottle Champagne or Prosecco
-
Dip the rim of your champagne flutes in water, and dip the rim in gold edible sugar.
-
Pour one shot per glass of Gold Goldschläger, Vodka or Liquor with Gold Flakes into the glass.
-
Top with Champagne or Prosecco.
-
Cheers!
Gold sugar is easy to find in cake decorating sections of craft stores, I found mine at HomeGoods.
Simply dip the rim of the glass in the water on one plate, and dip in the gold sugar on a second plate!
Let the champagne flutes dry before the party, chill the champagne and gold liquor and you are ready.
Wishing you a very Happy New Year, and if I may ask, did you set resolutions or goals?
The reason I ask, is some of the biggest dreams I achieved became possible because they were part of my new years, “goal plan”. Each new year, rather than set resolutions, I reorganize a goal plan for all areas of my life. Plus, a few years ago when I turned 50, (gulp) I added a list of at least 50 fun things to do during that year. Super fun right? Think of these as goals too!
Throughout the year, I review my dreams, goals, and 50 fun things. You will be amazed how many you actually accomplish. Of course, some are moved to the next year. And that is fine! It is all a work in progress, it is fun to look back and see what you actually finished and to guide you successfully through the new year.
All the luck in the world to you this new year, oh and cheers!
All the Best,
Lisa

A perfect appetizer for New Years is Firecracker Shrimp! (no frying, these are baked!)
These cocktails were so pretty and had an unexpected and pleasant little kick to them. I made them for a small birthday gathering and the girls loved them. They really made the evening feel extra special and with none of the extra work! Will definitely make these again.
