0:01
Y'all gonna find Eddie up here with me
0:03
because this is a drink for New Year's Eve
0:08
to bring in the new year
0:10
and you know I don't too much dig alcoholic drinks
0:15
so Eddie's gonna make it and help me taste it.
0:19
It's a startini, y'all, and it's a pretty drink.
0:24
It's got pomegranate liqueur, it has got vodka
0:31
and we've got some beautiful gold sugar
0:36
that we're gonna line our glass with.
0:41
This is, they recommend sprinkling gold dust
0:48
on the top of your drink.
0:50
It's got to be edible though.
0:51
And Theresa found this.
0:56
She found this at Michaels.
0:59
And I'll show you what it.
1:03
See, it's just a dust but it's edible.
1:06
- [Theresa] And that one's actually called Rose Gold.
1:09
- [Paula] Uh huh, Rose Gold.
1:09
- [Theresa] They didn't actually have gold.
1:10
It's probably out of stock.
1:12
- [Paula] Yeah, probably, so this-
1:13
- [Theresa] Where is Eddie, I thought he was helping you?
1:16
- I don't know, Eddie?
1:24
Just in time for the party.
1:29
This is gonna make my coffee taste so much better.
1:33
- So what you drinking? - A coffee.
1:36
But you're fixing to, you're fixing to fix us up a cocktail
1:40
and Eddie has said so many times,
1:41
"Paula, these folks are gonna think I am a drunk"
1:46
and do not think that about Eddie.
1:49
How long have we been together?
1:52
- Yeah, almost eight, yeah, coming up on eight.
1:54
- That's hard to believe, hard to believe. y'all.
1:58
I have never seen this man intoxicated
2:00
and we live with each other.
2:03
I mean, he's in his apartment.
2:04
Michael and I are in here
2:06
but if there was a drinking problem going on,
2:08
I think I would've picked up on it.
2:12
- So what are we, we're making a startini?
2:13
- We're making a startini.
2:16
- That sounds good. - Yeah, so-
2:18
- Okay, so we've got some ice.
2:19
- Got your shaker with some ice.
2:21
- We'll, you gonna try it?
2:25
- I'll put a little to my lips.
2:26
- We gotta toast, we gotta toast so.
2:30
It calls for a little bit of that.
2:32
- Rather than champagne, we'll use Prosecco.
2:34
- Uh huh which is great.
2:36
- [Theresa] So how much was that?
2:37
- Okay, so I'm gonna double it so we're making,
2:41
well, it's two ounces of vodka.
2:44
- That's a lot of vodka.
2:46
- [Theresa] And you're making two drinks?
2:47
- Making two drinks, yeah.
2:48
- [Theresa] So this is actually four ounces of vodka?
2:50
- Yeah and then two ounces of the pomegranate liqueur.
2:55
I don't think I've had that.
3:01
- That's gonna make it a pretty color, isn't it?
3:03
- Yeah. Smells good, I can already smell it.
3:15
- You wanna shake? - No, I want you to shake.
3:17
I wanna watch you shake.
3:18
- Stand back. - I shake enough on my own.
3:28
- I'm gonna moisten your edge with a piece of lemon.
3:37
- That's some gold sugar. - Yes.
3:40
- Do you need a bigger, here, let me,
3:44
you're struggling with that little thing.
3:48
Why don't we put it on a paper plate with a bigger circle?
3:55
That's just beautiful, beautiful, y'all.
3:58
- [Eddie] Yeah, we did this at Thanksgiving too
4:01
with a different drink and Claudia and Brooke.
4:06
- [Paula] All the girls loved it.
4:07
- [Eddie] All the girls loved it, yes.
4:09
- [Paula] And I think Jody was drinking it too.
4:11
- Jody, Ashley, Debbie, they all, they all had the-
4:15
- And I went in there at the bar and I poured me just a tad.
4:20
I said, I'm gonna join the adults today.
4:23
I'm gonna have this stuff 'cause it was pretty.
4:28
It was a side of sangria, it was good.
4:32
- I guess, I don't know but my stomach still wasn't right.
4:35
- [Eddie] Yeah. - [Paula] So.
4:39
That's beautiful, Eddie.
4:44
- [Eddie] Now, I wouldn't normally measure out.
4:47
This is being very exact.
4:52
- [Paula] Oh, oh, the Prosecco.
4:53
- [Eddie] We're gonna top it off with a little Prosecco.
4:56
- [Eddie] Give it a little bubble.
4:58
- [Paula] Yeah 'cause otherwise, it's straight liquor.
5:00
- [Eddie] And you do like Prosecco.
5:02
- [Paula] I do like Prosecco if I got to, oh, look, look.
5:08
- [Paula] Oh, what a fun drink.
5:12
- Alrighty. - All right, it's time.
5:15
It's time to bring in the new year.
5:19
- May all your dreams come true, Eddie.
5:22
- You too. - Thank you.
5:24
- Make it the best year. - Yes.
5:31
That's not bad. - Good.
5:32
Yes, the pomegranate really pops.
5:36
- I think it's that gold sugar I like so much.
5:40
That is really, really good.
5:43
- Yeah, the sugar's good but the pomegranate's,
5:45
has a great flavor to it.
5:48
- Well, we hope all of y'all
5:50
have the most glorious year in 2024.
5:56
