Festive martini to enjoy while watching the game! Go BRONCO's!

Festive martini to enjoy while watching the game! GO BRONCO’s!

Bronco-Tini. Yes! The celebratory drink for the Bronco’s win against the Patriots! 2014 AFC Champs!

Denver is on a roll and the win on Sunday was just what our city needed. Payton and CO. were amazing and they just outplayed the Patriot’s! No one could blame it on bad weather because it was a perfect day. Sixty degrees and not a cloud in the sky. It’s like Florida now. I think I just got a little sun burn after a morning tennis match outside, in shorts by the way…

So over the next couple of weeks, instead of Football Fest food, I’ll be making ideas for SUPER BOWL party food. Might as well start off with a Bronco-Tini! We will need to start drinking these now to calm our nerves over the next two weeks. Denverites are bleeding blue and orange, it might as well be blue and orange Bronco-Tini’s! Yum, light, refreshing a little tropical and a perfect drink for showing of our favorite colors!

Making colored sugar is easy! Fill a shallow bowl or small plate with 1/4 cup turbinado natural cane sugar. Add a few squirts of blue food coloring and mix until well incorporated.

Easy to make the colored sugar!

Easy to make the colored sugar!

Enjoy the Bronco-Tini’s and GO BRONCO’s!!!!

    OH yes we are bleeding orange and blue! I couldn’t believe how shaky my nerves were during the game on Sunday. If only I had these! Now I must go make some of these and calm myself down – It’s going to be a long two weeks :))

      After the debacle with making a cocktail that looked like the Sea Hags (Hawks) and still wanting the blue… blue sugar came to be!

    […] As it turns out, a Denver/Seattle Super Bowl was a boon for blue curaçao. Still, did we really need to celebrate the Broncos with a mix of blue curaçao, vodka, and orange soda? Was it important to cheer on the Seahawks with a 12th Man Margarita or a Seattle Swizzle (the latter with citrus vodka, peach schnapps, pineapple juice, sour mix, and blue curaçao)? Does the world really need a Bronco-tini? […]
