pvbmom Posted October 31, 2023 #1 Share Posted October 31, 2023 We had a fantastic cruise on the Silver Wind! One of my favorite beverages was "Puttin on the Ritz" in the Dolce Vita lounge. Would anyone happen to know how that is made? Thank you in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canderson Posted October 31, 2023 #2 Share Posted October 31, 2023 Of you Google it, you'll find a couple of recipes. Here's one. Use champers for the "sparkling wine". Sound like what you had? Ingredients 2 oz. vodka 1 oz. lemon juice 1 oz. beet simple syrup Top with sparkling wine Beet-infused simple syrup Add 12 oz. water and 12 oz. white sugar to pot and stir to combine. Add two rough-chopped (peeled) raw beets to the liquid and heat on your stove top (medium heat) covered for about 20 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool. Transfer to clean glass jar. Store in refrigerator for up to three weeks. To make one delicious cocktail Shake your ingredients with ice & strain into a chilled martini glass or champagne flute. Top with sparkling wine. We like to garnish ours with a beet section, speared on a toothpick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pvbmom Posted November 1, 2023 Author #3 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Thank you ever so much for your response and research- I truly appreciate it! I wish oI could say that is the drink, but unfortunately not. It did have a lemon flavor and champagne, but not the beet simple syrup. It was served in a champagne glass with a sugared rim and floating lemon peel. I have tried lemon juice and champagne, but that is not quite it- a sweet ingredient is missing. Thank you again for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
