Sake To Me cocktails - a refreshing sipper for the long weekend
This delicious Sake To Me cocktail featuring sake and cranberry juice was unveiled in one of our Foodie Group dinner party posts. You know, the one with the Underwater theme and the so-good sous-vide style duck and veggies?
But this concoction is too good to be an also-ran. Let’s shine a light on this smooth sipper, perfect for a little weekend libation. It’s refreshing, it’s summery (but not exclusively so – this drink will serve you well all the way through autumn), and it goes down easy.

Serve With: A bowl of nuts or pretzels. Nothing too zesty that might overpower the light, delicate flavors of the cocktail. Enjoy the long weekend, and Happy Labor Day!
