Sex & The City and NUVO Sparkling Cosmopolitan
Just in case you didn’t know, the Sex & The City movie is about to launch. Here is an idea to celebrate your favorite show: NUVO Sparkling Cosmopolitan.
The drink of choice for the Sex & The City ladies was Cosmopolitan-they made it big. There is a scene in the movie where the girls are sitting around a table drinking Como’s and asking why they have stopped drinking them and one remarked that it was because “everyone else started to”-this is where NUVO Sparkling Cosmopolitan comes in-it is a modern take on the typical Cosmo, plus it’s sparkling.
Here are some facts about NUVO Sparkling Cosmopolitan:
- The world’s first sparkling liqueur
- Made with vodka and a small amount of delicate French sparkling wine, this ultra-premium French sparkling liqueur is blended with natural fruit nectar to achieve a harmonious balance. The wine is predominately made up of chardonnay with a touch of pinot noir. It is infused with raspberry, peach and strawberry fruits to reveal a vivacity and elegance that leaves the palate refreshed
- NUVO is the must-have accessory for a stylish, sophisticated lifestyle
- Housed in an ultra-chic bottle that resembles those originally made for perfume, NUVO is something that should be displayed
- The drink itself is a fun and festive soft pink hue that not only looks stunning in one’s glass but adds to the overall décor and flair of a party
- NUVO celebrates the pleasure of people getting together with their friends and sharing beautiful moments
- NUVO comes in two sizes: 200ml for $20 and 375ml for $30
- Available at exclusive nightclubs and hotels such as Nikki Beach, The Delano and Pearl in Miami; Room Service, Stereo and The Hudson Hotel in NYC
