Will you be hosting a royal wedding viewing party? If so, I'm guessing you are obviously either a HUGE wedding fan, or love the fantasy of the royal lifestyle. The moms of The Boastful Host will likely (sadly) be up, but that's that's just an affect of children! We will be super excited to see the dress and flowers and all of the beautiful celebratory style that goes along with it...just when we're a little more awake.
Even if you aren't hosting a party, we do have a drink worthy of a royal celebration (even if it is for much later in the day!) for you in honor of the wedding.

I felt when choosing a drink for this occasion, it should definitely involve gin, by far the most popular spirit in London, but elevated since it is a wedding, so how could we not suggest a bit of bubbly?!
You can see from the photo that we are supporting one of our favorite semi-local American gins (from Philly), along with a French sparkling wine (not technically Champagne based on the region it's produced), and a personal favorite St. Germain.

Our drink, The Royal Cup, is adapted from Lobby Bar in London.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 oz. Gin
3/4 oz. St. Germain Elderflower Liquor
Rosé Champagne or your favorite sparkling wine
Directions:
Fill a cocktail shaker half way with ice and add your gin and St. Germain. Shake vigorously until icy. Pour into a champagne flute, and fill to the top with Champagne.
This is not exactly your typical, light "ease in" brunch cocktail, so be forewarned should you chose to start making these in time to watch the wedding festivities live!.
We'd love to hear what your most excited to see in the wedding! Let us know in the comments.
Till next time, make every day a party!
