Pretty in Pink
The other day I received a cute heart-shaped box that contained chocolates and pretty pink bottles filled with X-Rated Fusion Liqueur. What is this you ask? It's an ultra-premium French vodka blended with blood oranges and the essence of mango and passion fruit. Sounds tasty, right?

I decided to share my treat with two other girls in the office, and one of them gave the pink liqueur an enthusiastic two thumbs up. The other has it hanging out on her desk, because it's just too cute for her to consume. I can't say I disagree with her. It is pretty. This little X-Rated bottle would make the perfect bachelorette party/bridal shower favor, or you could add it to your bridesmaids' goodie bags and survival kits. What bridesmaid doesn't need a little liquid courage before walking down the aisle or delivering a toast?
With one bottle left in my possession, I decided to take my little treasure home and try out one of the recipes they sent in the package:
Hopeless RomantiX
1.5. oz. X-Rated Fusion Liqueur
2 oz. Prosecco or Champagne
.25 oz Lemon Juice
.25 oz Orange
.25 oz. Pineapple
Muddle pineapple, orange and lemon. Add prosecco and X-Rated Fusion Liqueur. Strain and serve in a highball glass and garnish with a lemon twist.
And here's the end result, minus the highball glass and lemon twist:

So what's the verdict? One word: Yummy! If you're planning a bridal shower or bachelorette party, I'd highly recommend a visit to their site, xratedfusion.com, for more great recipes and ideas.
