It’s almost time for the Golden Globes red carpet. If you are going to watch this show, you should mix up a cocktail or two. You will be sipping right along with your favorite celebrities as they wait for the winners to be announced. To make this celebrity-laden event even more palatable, I am sharing 3 great cocktail recipes from Crystal Head Vodka that don’t require a chunk of time but do deliver great taste and a smooth finish.
While you have seen Crystal Head Vodka in the Holiday 2016 listing, here’s another spin on Crystal Head Vodka– the Aurora Borealis version. This is a tweak on the original formula that ‘ups the game’ to a new level of flavor, finish, and presentation.

AURORA BOREALIS IS THE MOST VIVID AERIAL PHENOMENON.
The Crystal Head Aurora bottle was created in celebration of this natural light display, with its beauty and mysterious visual properties.
CRAFTED WITH THE PUREST INGREDIENTS.
Aurora uses high-quality English wheat and pristine water from Newfoundland, Canada to craft an additive-free vodka.
The vodka is five times distilled and filtered seven times. Three of the filtrations pass through layers of Herkimer diamonds as our final distinctive touch.
AURORA IS A UNIQUE, NEW EXPRESSION OF CRYSTAL HEAD.
Instead of exploring different flavours, Aurora was crafted using a different grain. It offers a drier, bolder, and spicier vodka while staying true to the Crystal Head house-style. The bottle, with its delicate and iridescent metallized finish, is our tribute to this natural wonder of the world.
THE ARRIVAL OF A-LIST COCKTAILS.
A new expression brings a new line of cocktails.
The A-list cocktails were specifically designed to compliment the bold new flavor of Aurora. Explore the Aurora cocktail collection.
And the cocktails I am featuring today are from that specialty cocktails for the Aurora version of Crystal Head Vodka.
