The event was not only a celebration to recognize Frederic Chopin's 200th birthday, but also to inaugurate Seven, the Raleigh's new happy hour concept, in which guests can partake in all drinks, hors d'oeurves, and valet parking for $7. If you missed seeing the glass behemoth in person, you still have until the 14th to chase it down before it is auctioned for the GRAMMY Foundation. And, if you have at least the $50,000 expected starting bid, perhaps you can admire the bottle forever more. Imagine how many of these Red Wine cocktails could be made with that thing. Divine.
Chopin Red Wine
2oz. Chopin Vodka
1/2 oz. Dark cherry juice
4 Raspberries
3 Blackberries
6 Cranberries
1/3 oz. Noilly Prat Red vermouth (optional)
Directions: Muddle berries together in a Boston Glass, add Chopin, dark cherry juice (and optional vermouth).
