Yum, yum, yum.

New Years is fast approaching and whether you’re heading out to town, going to a house party or staying in with the other half, it’s safe to say that we’re celebrating ringing in 2019 with a drink or two.

And if vodka is your drink of choice then we have the perfect thing for you – Absolute Raspberri.

It’s on sale right now for €20 in Tesco, and we’re definitely nabbing a bottle for some New Years cocktails.

It’s been described as: “Absolut Raspberri’s rich and intense flavour comes from ripened raspberries harvested in the Swedish hillsides. Its fresh and fruity character mixes well with a wide range of fruit juices and mixers.”

To get in the party mood we’ve found two gorge cocktails that you could make in prep for December 31.
