Review:
Fruity champagne. Easy to serve at a party or gathering, this combines with this cocktail's name to make it a Christmas favourite. Better drinks are available.
History:
The appearance of this cocktail is reminiscent of the red and green foliage of the plant, which derives its name from Joel Roberts Poinsett, who is credited with introducing the plant to the US in the 1820s.
