A Cotton Candy Martini

January 18, 2017 by Kate 2 Comments

Greetings, Everyone! Today I’m sharing a super-easy cocktail recipe that packs a powerful punch. It’s the cotton candy martini! With a little bit of cotton candy and some geo paper goods from BASH, you can create an instant party. Read on for the recipe and some sweet tips for a festive snack break…

As soon as I saw these Disco Diamond plates and napkins from BASH, I knew they had to be mine. They’re iridescent. They ooze ’90s style. And they’re nothing short of fabulous! I just couldn’t help myself, so I ordered the Disco Diamond Party Confetti as well. A girl’s gotta have some fun!

To make your own Cotton Candy Martini, follow this simple recipe:

  • Add a small bunch of cotton candy to a martini glass
  • Top off the glass with champagne, prosecco or cava
  • Mix in 1/2-1 ounce of vodka, your preference
  • Garnish with cotton candy on the rim (add a bit of water to help it stick)

The beauty of this recipe is the fact that it’s customizable! If you like your drinks sweeter, add more cotton candy. Too sweet? Add another dash of prosecco. Need it to be stronger? That’s where the vodka comes in. Yes, it’s that easy!

For an extra special treat, top your favorite cupcake with pastel chocolate rocks for a terrazzo-style dessert:

A special thank you to BASH for inspiring today’s post. Fans of ’80s design will be excited to check out their new Art School collection. And don’t get me started on BASH’s Memphis products. Enjoy, and cheers!  XOXO, Kate
