I have designed a cocktail that captures the spirit, strength, and loveliness of my daughter Kristin. The Winter Rose cocktail is vibrant and stunning colors, luscious yet subtle, and sparkling with beauty. This cocktail is a small tribute to my daughter, a beautiful, strong, and compassionate young woman.

Make the ice cube the day before. Pour 1/3 part grapefruit juice and 2/3 parts tart cherry juice into rose ice cube mold.
