Instructions
Pour over ice, stir and serve in a rocks glass.
I haven't actually tried it yet, but I love Hpnotiq, been told I will love Hpnotiq Harmonie even more because it's sangria like, and I adore coconut rum, so this is a shoe-in. Planning on having this Christmas night, but I might have to try it beforehand... nom nom om

I am not ashamed to say that I have consumed this entire recipe before by myself and had a grand evening
love the idea of the pointsettia mimosa!!
I will probably just be drinking copious amounts of wine. I was thinking about maybe making a wintery sangria - my usual recipe only with like apples and pears instead of peaches and nectarines...
No actual measurements but here's a fave my friend serves:
Blue Balls:
Hypnotique
Diet Sprite
Cool whip (a quick dab on top)
She made it for my bachlorette party; it's quite tasty!
