Merry Cherry Cocktail. I love, love, love this commercial. So much so that I may or may not have had to go purchase these little glasses.
Okay. I did. I may or may not have also chanted “Party Party! Party!” to the clerk when I bought them.
Merry Cherry Cocktail
To make this pretty little party in a mini martini glass, place these ingredients into a Boston shaker:
- About 10 ice cubes for chilling
- 3 ounces cherry schnapps
- 3 ounces cherry vodka
- 1/2 cup cranberry juice
- 1/4 cup 7-Up
- One lime wedge (squeeze first & then drop lime wedge in as well for added flavor)
- 5 maraschino cherries with or without stems
Place one cherry in the bottom of each glass. Shake well & pour the drink into mini glasses. Makes about 5 mini martini glasses full. Making Merry Cherries for a crowd? Try displaying them in a fun way. I placed mine in a candle holder and guests were able to help themselves to one (along with adorable red & white polka dot napkins) when they arrived – the perfect way to get the party started.
I cannot guarantee that your glasses will sing, “Party! Party! Party!” but I can, indeed, guarantee you a Merry Cherry.
