Take boring, tacky jewelry that shares your medical needs/condition and turn it into something to be worn as a statement. Something to be (dare I say it?) proud of. But that’s exactly what Hello! We Are _______. did with their medical nameplates and I couldn’t love the resulting necklaces and bracelets more!
Sparkling Shiraz Punch is the perfect concoction for Girls’ Night – not too sweet and just fizzy enough!
Ingredients: – 15 mint sprigs – 1 ounce whipping-quality pasteurized egg white, lightly beaten – 1 cup superfine sugar – 3/4 cup fresh lemon juice (about 6 lemons) – 2 bottles sparkling Shiraz – 3 liters club soda – 1 1/2 cups St. Germain Elderflower liqueur
Brush mint with egg white. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup sugar, and let dry on a wire rack. Mix lemon juice and remaining sugar in a large punch bowl, stirring until sugar dissolves. Add Shiraz, club soda, and liqueur. Serve with ice, and garnish with sugared mint sprigs. Serves 15.
Sorry for going MIA yesterday, you can blame the weather! I couldn’t make it out of my neighborhood because it was a sheet of ice thanks to the lovely winter storm that took over the midwest the past few days.
