1 bottle of Sparkling wine (Champagne)
1 bottle of Peach Schnapps
1 bottle of Raspberry Chambord
Fresh Raspberries
For the drink:
3 parts Sparkling Wine
1 part peach schnapps
1 part Raspberry Chambord
Mix well and chill. Serve with a couple of frozen raspberries in a champagne flute.
For Supper Club: cover fresh raspberries in sugar then freeze in a Ziploc baggie. They are on sale right now at Costco for about $3 for a big container! dip the rim of the glass you are using in corn syrup and then into sugar that has been colored red. You do not have to use champagne flutes, just an idea. You can get plastic ones in every color at Party City if you go that route. Just buy cheap champagne..we don't need the expensive stuff! I make this in a pitcher and use a 1 cup measuring cup so 3 cups wine, 1 cup schnapps, and 1 cup chambord.

Lake Minnetonka Iced Tea
1 cup Vodka
1 cup Tequila
1 cup Gin
1 cup Triple Sec
1 cup Light Rum
2 cups Coca Cola
1 cup Sour Mix
Mix well in a large pitcher, serve in tall glasses over ice, garnish with lemon slices.
If you don't have all these liquors on hand you can buy a pre-mixed version. T.G.I. Fridays makes a good mixer. This is one of those drinks that go down really smooth and suddenly you are really drunk...so be careful how many you drink!!
