Pimp your Prosecco...

Edinburgh

I went to an event earlier in the year and they had a little table where you could pimp your prosecco so I've totally stolen their idea for our Christmas party.

I've spent the afternoon making syrups but what I'd like to know are your ideas for how you'd like to pimp yours...

I've got chambord, cherry brandy, sloe gin and raspberry gin for the boozy ones and I've made strawberry, lemon & ginger and elderflower. I also made a mulled wine syrup too. Adding a bottle of advocat I just need to get some fruit right?

Not prosecco but a great xmas shot is .. jam rolly poly.

Its advocat with chambord. Tastes just like pudding!

I dare say the addition of prosecco could be interesting!

There are 11 in a jar for a tenner or 40 for 27 quid on Amazon... I'm not sure (given what I've already spent) that I want to splash that much. There are 90 people coming... 11 seems mean.
