Hence, I accepted an offer to review some of the company&#8217;s line of all-natural cocktail decorating products&#8211;namely, cocktail sugar, cocktail glitter and wine glitter.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s a great organic marketing tool for bars, restaurants and caterers to serve Instagram-ready food and drinks,&#8221; Snowy River Cocktails Founder Stuart Cutler\u00a0said in a statement. &#8220;The cocktails created with our products make any dinner or event really stand-out. The creative event host can find endless uses for them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Right off the bat, you can tell the glitter and sugar will add some visual sparkle to your beverage. They\u00a0contain no preservatives and are vegan, gluten-free and GMO-free\u00a0Kosher Certified.<\/p>\n<p>The glitter is meant to be lightly dusted on the top of or stirred in your cocktail. I&#8217;ve never added glitter to wine before, but I was amused by\u00a0my blue-colored Sauvignon blanc, caused by the sapphire\u00a0glitter I swirled into it\u00a0(and it did not affect the taste of the wine). Meanwhile, I sprinkled the red cocktail glitter on top of my vodka martini, and the glitter eventually made the drink look like a cosmo.<\/p>\n<p>You can get the cocktail glitter in various sizes, such as 0.2 oz. ($6.95) and 1 oz. ($19.95),\u00a0and the wine glitter in various sizes, such as 0.2 oz ($8.95) and 2 oz. ($34.95). Other flavors include copper, gold and purple. Beer glitter also is available.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-6469\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eatdrinkmadison.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/bloodymary_sugar-259x300.jpg\" alt=\"bloodymary_sugar\" width=\"259\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eatdrinkmadison.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/bloodymary_sugar-259x300.jpg 259w, https:\/\/www.eatdrinkmadison.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/bloodymary_sugar.jpg 462w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 259px) 100vw, 259px\" \/>The cocktail sugar is meant to rim your glass. For the red, white and blue Americas flavor, I rimmed a glass of an All-American drink: the Bloody Mary. You know what? I liked the contrast the sweetness of the sugar brings over the typical rim salt. The Americas sugar would be a hit at your next 4th of July party.<\/p>\n<p>The sugar ranges in sizes from a 2-oz. bottle ($4.95) all the way up to a 5-lb. bag ($42.95). Other flavors include chocolate treat, pumpkin pie mix and coconut delight.<\/p>\n<p>Snowy River Cocktails provided me some recipes for coffee-rum Pirates Bounty, an Italian-inspired Chocolate Orange Martini and a rye-based favorite called The Unity, and you can find them here: <a href=\"https:\/\/snowyrivercocktails.com\/cocktail-ideas\/\" target=\"_blank\">snowyrivercocktails.com\/cocktail-ideas\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If professional mixologists and bartenders are using Snowy River Cocktails&#8216; large range of products to create eye-catching cocktails, then I want to use the products, too.
