Party Seasons: Champagne & Prosecco Cocktails

We are getting close to the glitz, the glamour and the festivities and a glass of bubbles couldn’t be more perfect at such a time. It is tradition that the bubbles are flowing in our house on Christmas Day, as well as throwing in a few cocktail creations thereafter to see us through to New Year. So naturally I cannot think of a better time to share some champagne and prosecco cocktails to really get us in the party spirit, and perhaps give you some drink inspiration.  Last year I put together a few recipes of varying cocktails, FYI The Sparkling…

KIND Sea Salt Nut Bars

I confess I have never had a KIND bar. I cannot really pinpoint as to why but it is just not a snack bar I have ever picked up, however that is all going to change because the lovely people at KIND sent me not one, not two but a whole variety box of the them to try.  First thought – there are SO many flavours!

Now not something I would traditionally go for but on the flavour sides of things Pip & Nut Chocolate Orange Almond Butter screams Christmas. A little while back the lovely people at Pip & Nut sent the best packaged gift ever, and inside were an array of Pip & Nut butters, which one by one I am working my way through them. As you can imagine Pip & Nut Chocolate Orange Almond Butter * is a limited edition pot and combines roasted almonds, rich cacao and zesty…

Peanut Butter Rolos

Peanut Butter Rolos

Just when you thought a Rolo was always going to be a Rolo, Nestlé Canada have done something that us peanut butter addicts are joyful about. Combining the taste of peanut butter and creamy milk chocolate, Peanut Butter Rolos have been born.  Stumbling across these was a pure fluke and I hadn’t a clue of their existence. I found these on American Fizz for a slightly eye watering price of £4.99 for a 170g bag, but as you can see I still bought them! In essence they haven’t lost the Rolo factor and are still in the classic shape and spit…
