“I designed the Knock Your Socks Off, a cranberry creation.  It is tart with a hint of sweetness and a dash of sour.  With the color of a deep burgundy, it looks gorgeous.  I would put it in a fancy cocktail glass.  For kids, ask your parents if you can use that glass.  If they say yes, ask if they can get it down for you.  It is delicious and refreshing.”
