IT'S 5 O'CLOCK!
Time for a Power Hour!
A DACN Political Power Hour to be precise
Join fellow members as we discuss Democrats, domestic politics, and doingmore to Get Out The Vote! This event is BYOB, shake it if you got it.
Enjoying a cocktail or mocktail is not mandatory, but we hope the following recipes add some sparkle to your evening. Many more drink ideas to come! (Sourcing ingredients in Shanghai and other areas may be difficult at this time, so alternative suggestions will be shared during the event.) Looking forward to discussing politics and beverage substitutes!
Lizzie's Liberating Libations
Sweet Blue '22
1.5 ounces Vodka (flavored is ok!)
2 ounces Sparkling Wine
1 dash Amaretto
1/2 ounce of Blueberry Simple Syrup (or to taste, can skip...your call, we Democrats are pro-choice)
Blueberries (frozen or fresh. Mix them in the drink, or use as garnish!)
👉 Blueberry simple syrup: 1/2 cup blueberries, 1/2 cup sugar, 1/2 cup water. Add all ingredients to a pan on medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and let simmer for 15 minutes. Break up the blueberries with a spoon and stir until a thicker syrup has formed. Strain into a mason jar and enjoy immediately, or store for up to 3 months! Enough for 4-6 cocktails, depending on your sweet tooth.
👉 The drink: pour blueberry simple syrup into the bottom of your glass. Add vodka. Add splash of Amaretto. Top with sparkling wine. Add blueberries as desired.
Tax The Rich
Any alcohol (vodka, gin, rum...)
Blue Gatorade
Born in the USA
Beer of your choice
A Greener '22
2 stalks Celery
1 cup Kale
1/3 cup coconut water
1/2 cup cucumber
1 apple
Ice (as desired)
👉 Remember to wash and dry all fruit and vegetable ingredients. Peeling the apple and cucumber may make for a smoother beverage, but we leave that up to you! Combine all ingredients into a blender/juicer/food processor. Ice can be blended, or added after mixing.
