Join us on Closing Night to celebrate the start of the Cinema Cocktail 2020 Virtual Film Festival!
Because we’re united through cinema from all across the country – and possibly from various corners of the world – we’ll be experimenting with ways to hold virtual galas and celebrations throughout the festival. We’ll close out the festival on May 31 at 9:00pm (PST). Some of you may have had a chance to see our Closing Night Film, some of you might be getting ready to watch it. Either way, join us for a brief time of snacks and cocktails as we start to form community around this celebration of film. Email josh@cinemacocktail.com for the Zoom invitation to join the party!
Cocktail of Choice: Fireball Sangria
This cocktail crackles with a rich blend of European wine and secret fire, sweetened with just a touch of summer fruit. One taste, and the passion will sweep you away.
Ingredients:
-
-
- 1 bottle sangria (or any dry red wine you have on hand)
- 1 cup Fireball Whisky
- 1 cup orange peach mango juice
- 3 whole fruits (orange, lemon, green apple, pineapple, peach, or mango will all do nicely)
-
Dice the fruit and freeze overnight. Combine the wine, whisky, and juice in a pitcher. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Pour and add the frozen fruit to keep your fiery sangria on ice.
