This February, show off your bartending skills to your loved one with a special Valentine’s Day cocktail created by Aisha Sharpe for Leblon. Aisha worked with Leblon’s newest spirit, Cedilla Açai Liquor, to make this easy and delicious cocktail. Featuring champagne and fruit flavors, the Rio Royale will impress your sweetheart and leave their tastebuds tingling.
The Rio Royale by Aisha Sharpe
Muddle a strawberry and blackberry
Pour into a champagne flute
Add in 1 oz Cedilla Açai Liquor
Top with Champagne
Pick up Cedilla Açai Liquor (which just launched last week in New York) at the 86th Corner Wine & Liquor in the Upper West Side for around $34 a bottle.
If you are unable to move away from your loved one long enough to make this easy drink, you can open up a bottle of sparkling wine like Banfi’s Rosa Regale, which is a nice little pairing with chocolate. You can pick this up at Eataly, Chelsea Wine Vault or Astor Wine & Spirits for $20.
Happy Valentine’s Day! Cheers, to love!
*Special thanks to Banfi for a bottle of their Rosa Regale to try!
