Today we’re making the Quarter Century Cocktail! This drink is an original of mine created as a tribute to the coming new year. It balances bitter Campari with the sweetness of apricot and a hint of herbal absinthe. Dry sparkling wine tops off the Quarter Century to provide a clean, crisp finish. Hope you all enjoy this recipe, and have a safe and happy new year! Cheers!
