Candy Cane Red Velvet Trifle

By: Eshun Mott

This trifle takes trendy red velvet cake right into the holiday season. Red and white layers visually mimic a candy cane and a hint of pepper mint balanced against cream cheese and white chocolate takes it over the top for a trifle all ages can enjoy. If you can’t find peppermint oil for the cream, you can substitute about ½ tsp (2 mL) peppermint extract. For a different presentation, this recipe works equally well made in 6 to 8 individual portions.

Berry Caprioska

By: The Martini Club


 
2 tbsp mixed berries
1/4 oz fresh lime juice
1/4 oz simple syrup
2 oz white cranberry juice

1. In a cocktail shaker, add berries, lime juice and simple syrup. Muddle or mash† with a bar spoon.

2. Fill shaker with ice and add white cranberry juice. Shake sharply and strain into a rocks glass with ice.

Simple Syrup
Measure equal parts sugar and water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and cook 5 minutes, stirring to dissolve sugar. Let cool; refrigerate.


To Muddle or Mash
You'll need a muddler or bar spoon. Mashing the berries releases the juices into the cocktail giving it flavour.
