A Tax Toast, or, “Here’s to the IRS!”
While I do not recommend imbibing whilst working on your taxes, once you’ve completed the arduous task you deserve a deduction-busting beverage. I invented this little Tax Toast wine-tail as the perfect remedy for your IRS headache.
1 oz. vodka
1/4 oz. Triple Sec
3/4 oz. pureed fruit (blueberries, raspberries, peaches, whatever tickles your fancy)
4 oz. sparkling wine (I recommend Midlife Crisis Winery’s “Maggie’s Magic”)
In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, shake the vodka, triple sec and fruit puree, straining into a champagne flute. Top with the sparkling wine. Garnish with fresh fruit or a citrus twist. Cheers!
For those of you who choose not to imbibe you can make something similar with pureed fruit and sparkling water/soda. Fun and refreshing! Cheers!
