Actor Patrick Schwarzenegger brought the holiday spirit to Ketel One Vodka’s festive party, which celebrated him officially becoming the first “Spirit Advisor” for the alcohol brand.
The holiday party was held at the Times Square EDITION, where the connoisseur graciously greeted guests. Visitors delightfully sipped on speciality cocktails such as, The Naughty List, which was my personal favorite and included Ketel One Vodka, passion fruit puree, lime juice, vanilla syrup, whiskey liqueur, and makrut lime leaf. Other signature drinks featured quirky and fun names such as, Festive and the City, Out of Office, and It Happened One Night.
Out of all the alluring cocktails, the one that stole the show for Patrick and the brand, was the Espresso Mint-Tini. Patrick effortlessly and charmingly got the crowd’s attention when he began showcasing the easy, step-by-step instructions on how to create the delicious drink, and then proceeded to toast to the evening of fun ahead.
Guests were also pleasantly surprised by a engraving station, where they had the opportunity to get a personally engraved glass. Along with the wonderful glass, visitors also literally got to take home the experience when they were gifted a beautifully packaged Espresso Mint-Tini ingredients kit, which was festively wrapped in Kettle One Vodka’s bold red color, and it’s signature “K” logo.
The recipe is simple and quick to make. It includes 1.5 ounces of Ketel One Vodka, 0.5 ounces of coffee liqueur, one ounce of cold brew concentrate, 0.5 ounces of peppermint syrup, and crushed peppermint candy for garnish. Easily mix those ingredients with ice in a cocktail shaker, and serve your holiday guests the drink of the season.
