“Yum” Cup DIY with Peach Melba Bellini Cocktail!

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….

I love bubbly, but not the stemware you serve it in. I am super clumsy and tend to break most champagne/wine glasses. 90% of our stemware has left our home in pieces, or we’ve donated them before they break. That brings me to my “Yum” Mason Jar Cup. It’s pretty cute, quick to make, and hard to break. My kind of drink glass.

– To make this cute cup, get yourself some Martha Stewart Gold Glass paint and a mason jar. Draw on the word “Yum”, and maybe add a frame around the word. Let dry for an hour.

– To make the metallic opaque paint permanent, place the cup in a cool oven. Set the oven to 350 degrees F and bake for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, turn the oven off and let the glass cool COMPLETELY in the oven. Note: glass needs to heat and cool gradually in the oven… so it doesn’t break. Wait 72 hours and use the glass for a Peach Melba Bellini Cocktail!

Now that you made a glass…. now you need something to put in it:

Kelly Ripa Peach Melba Bellini

Recipe adapted from Kelly Ripa’s recipe. Serves 1 person.

Ingredients:

1/2 oz. Peach Puree

1/2 oz. Raspberry Liqueur (I chose to substitute this with fresh blueberries)

Chilled Prosecco (or a dry bubbly if you don’t like super sweet)

Optional: Rosemary

Directions:

– Place 1/2 oz. of Peach Puree and the 1/2 oz. Raspberry Liqueur (or blueberries) to the bottom of your glass.

– Fill the rest of the cup with your bubbly (Kelly likes to keep her bubbly in the Elextrolux Perfect Temp Drawer because you can adjust the temp of this drawer to get those bubbles super chilly).

– Optional: If you love the taste of Rosemary…. add a fresh sprig to your cup! It’s a tasty drink to enjoy with some yummy cheese and bread.
