Ingredients

  • 1 cup vodka or your favorite flavored vodkas
  • ⅓ cup white wine Moscato or Riesling is preferred
  • ⅓ cup simple syrup add more or less according to your preference. I add ¼ cup with a sweeter white wine
  • petal luster dust in your favorite color (I used gold, a little less than 1/4 tsp

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Mix the vodka, wine and simple syrup until well combined.
  2. Stir in the petal luster dust.
  3. Swirl the liqueur just before use, as the luster dust will settle to the bottom after a while.
  4. Chill until needed.
  5. You can find all the fruit-infused flavored shimmery liqueur recipes in the linked post.

Notes

  • Try not to use too much shimmery luster dust. Some luster dust is marked as edible, and some are marked as non toxic. 
  • I try not use more than 1/4 tsp per cup of liqueur or spirit (vodka, tequila or gin). Just enough to give it a shimmer and light swirls. If needed I might add just a pinch more to a drink after I've made it. 
  • Adding a teaspoon or more of the luster dust PER DRINK is not advised, so only add just enough to create swirls in a CLEAR cocktail (which will show the best results).
