We love all the glitz and glamour that goes along with the Oscars, but sometimes the bubbly can be a little much. This year, instead of popping a cork, we’ll be whipping up this incredible mocktail, invented just for barre3 by Nick Duble, Bar Director at the amazing restaurant Atera, in New York City. Delicious and refreshing, the gold color and festive bubbles make it totally Oscar-worthy. We can’t wait to sip on it as we watch our favorite celebrities walk the red carpet. Let us know how you like it in the comments below!
Liquid Gold Mocktail
Ingredients:
½ of a small pear, core and seeds removed, cut into thin slices
2 Tbs. ginger-honey syrup (recipe below)
2 Tbs. lemon juice
3-4 ice cubes, plus crushed ice for serving
1/4 cup kombucha
Directions:
1. Set two slices of pear aside and muddle the rest in a cocktail shaker.
2. Add the ginger-honey syrup, the lemon juice, and the ice cubes and shake.
3. Strain into a glass with crushed ice and fill with kombucha. Garnish with the remaining two pear slices.
Ginger-honey syrup
Ingredients:
½ cup honey
½ cup water
⅛ cup sliced ginger
pinch of salt
Directions:
1. In a small saucepan, combine all ingredients. Stir, cover, and bring to a simmer for five minutes.
2. Remove from heat and let rest for one hour before straining through a fine-mesh strainer (if you don’t have a strainer, you can just pick out the ginger slices). The ginger-honey syrup will last for two weeks in the refrigerator.
