Cast:
Vodka (decent quality)
Peach Schnapps

Ladies and Gentlemen, the Award for best Awards Themed Beverage goes to: the Oscar!

Regular readers may recognize this as a variation on a drink recipe I posted last year. This iteration swaps out the Vernor's for a sweeter (at least sec) champagne or sparkling white wine. The result should be a sweet, sparkling, Oscar-golden draught the imbues the consumer with the sense of granduer and self-worth that only comes from winning an Academy Award. Or being at least moderately tipsy.

UPDATE:

After a long, exciting night with the Oscars, I've formulated a few variations. Where the recipe above is certainly award worthy, there's always room for an upgrade. To make a Picture of the Year sub out the cheap bubbly for the good stuff, say Korbel or Moet, and swap the peach schnapps for a peach infused brandy and trade up your Stoli for some Grey Goose. But for the big shots, the studio heads, the acclaimed auteur, or the long beloved actor you can make a Lifetime Achievement Award with Kaufman Luxury Vintage Vodka and some Dom Perignon! enjoy!
