Must-try Signature Drinks For Your Holiday Fête
By Gene & Georgetti
Make the evening more festive with these delicious cocktail recipes from Gene & Georgetti.
It is time to deck the halls, and the cocktails too! Undoubtedly one of the most wonderful times of the year is here. And celebrating deliciously is certainly one of the best ways to celebrate. In my family, our holiday soirees and intimate dinner parties always begin with an aperitivo (or cocktail, as we say in english). We’re including some of our favorites for this holiday here. And while we’re at it, we are also talking great gift ideas for the carnivorous foodies on your nice list! We now offer steak boxes at Gene & Georgetti. Always fresh and never frozen these steaks are our signature cuts, aged just how we do it in the restaurant for the last 80 years. All of the tradition and taste come beautifully packaged and ready to be enjoyed by all.
Now that really is the “nice” list! Cheers to that, and happy holidays to all!!
