Yellow Sangria Snow-Cone

 

There's a certain time of year

in the northern hemisphere

where the white stuff covers the ground.

Be it here, be it there

when the white stuff fills the air

it takes patience to travel around.

It's fluffier than ice

yes the texture's very nice

as it covers the landscape with beauty.

But it takes a little time

to unfreeze and unwind

after doing your shoveling duty

Such a beauty to behold

when you're out there in the cold

but there's one thing you need to know

Whether creature great or small

when mother nature makes that call

stay far away from the yellow snow.

 

 

Yellow 'Sangria' Snow
a fun cocktail for your next winter party

Secret Sangria Mix

1 Cup Chardonnay

1 Heaping Tablespoon Apricot Preserves

1/4 Cup Citrus Vodka

1/2 Cup Pineapple Juice

2 Tbsp. Agave Syrup

 

Combine pineapple juice, apricot preserves, and agave syrup in a microwave safe glass.

Heat in microwave 30 seconds to help the apricot preserves melt.

Stir.

Strain into container (removing the solids) and mix in the wine and the vodka.

Taste and adjust if needed.

The liquid should be somewhat strong. Don't worry. It will dilute a little when you pour it over ice.

Find some fresh white new fallen snow.

Alternately, use your blender and pulverize some ice cubes.

Place a scoop of ice/snow in snow cone cups.

If snow cone cups aren't available, use the next best thing: martini glasses!

Pour your secret yellow snow mixture over the ice.

Serve!

The next time someone tells you not to eat yellow snow,

tell them try it in a martini glass.

It's pretty tasty.
