Advent Calendar

Advent Calendar Reveal | Grand O

There are 18 more days until Christmas!  It is time to deck the halls. It is also time to open another bag!

ADVENT CALENDAR | 18 DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS

Today’s advent bag contains Grand Marnier Raspberry Peach.  Grand Marnier is made from a blend of Cognac brandy, distilled essence of bitter orange, and sugar.  This version has been taken up a notch by the addition of raspberry and peach flavors.

THE DRINK | GRAND O

Today I am making a drink I found on the Grand Marnier website: Grand O.  I made a small changes as the original recipe is a group serving.  I have made adjustments for a single serving as well as for taste.

For the drink, I mixed 1 part Grand Marnier Raspberry Peach liqueur, 2 parts of Simply Orange juice, and 1 part of sparking water.  I served the drink in a martini glass.

The Drink

  • 1 ounce of Grand Marnier Raspberry Peach
  • 2 ounces of Simply Orange juice
  • 1 ounce of sparkling water

For the Garnish

  • An orange slice or raspberries
