Best of the Web: Raspberry Champagne Cocktail

In this week's "Best of the Web" I am featuring this refreshing raspberry champagne cocktail from Williams Sonoma.  Wouldn't this be perfect for a Sunday brunch or even a  bridal shower?!  This recipe looked so refreshing on their website, I just had to share:)

Fresh raspberries macerated in crème de cassis and then bathed in chilled Champagne, with just a hint of grenadine for extra flavor, make this a sumptuous and eye-catching aperitif for a special meal.


















Ingredients:
4 oz. fresh raspberries
3 Tbs. crème de cassis
1 bottle (750ml) dry Champagne, chilled
4 to 6 tsp. grenadine syrup (optional)

Directions:
Put the raspberries in a small bowl, add the crème de cassis and let 'blend' for at least 30 minutes.
Divide the raspberries among 6 Champagne flutes and pour in the well-chilled Champagne. Add grenadine to taste and serve immediately. Serves 6.

Cheers!
