Last night, my friend Dani invited me over to her house for a pre-Sex and the City cocktail… She had a freshly opened bottle of St-Germain (yummy elderflower liqueur)and I’d been dying to try it!
Their website lists a few cocktails they’ve created. We tried the St-Germain Gin & Tonic, which was so delish I cannot even tell you. (The movie wasn’t bad either- ha!)

YUM! Thanks for the link.
How perfect that I have a bottle of Hendricks and tonic water sitting on my bar now. Looks like I need to pick up some St-Germain and treat myself tonight!
All of these cocktails sound so good!
I saw it last night too (+ also had girls over for pre-movie drinks). The movie was fun:)
It WAS fun!! I have to say, I liked it even more than I thought I would.
And yes- without sounding like we’re doing the PR for St. German- we’re not!- go buy some! Hehe- it is so yummy. I’ll be making drinks with it all summer.
I was thinking of you recently Miss Melissa as I saw St. Germain in a magazine recently (Domino?) for summer cocktail suggestions. These recipes sound TOO delicious! French 77? I am all over that like syrup on a pancake!!!
I failed to battle the stereotype and saw “the movie” twice over the weekend! God help me! Yeah, pimping myself out as a Stanford-Blatch-for-hire apparently. (Listening to the soundtrack right now even. Oy!)
how funny - i just bought a bottle of St. Germain because it’s such a pretty bottle to display! i’ve actually never tasted it…
another pretty bottle i bought was Lillet chardonnay (or it’s an aperitif…). It has a fun label on it.
