As Autumn sets in, I’ve been enjoying some relaxing time at home in the evenings, sitting with my feet up and catching up with friends.  With two children it’s often difficult to find the time to get out, so my only option is to indulge in some treats at home.

When we have people over it’s lovely to be able to have something new to try, whether some snacks or drinks and on this occasion, we tried out Nola Vodka Spritz as I was recently sent a gorgeous package of gifts to create the perfect nola night in.  Nola is a fruity vodka spritz that comes in two flavours – Raspberry and Elderflower, and Watermelon and Strawberry.  I am particularly partial to something fizzy, but don’t normally break open the drinks cabinet during the week.  However, Nola is something you could easily grab from the fridge to share, or by yourself with the cans.

So after clinking those glasses, what did we think?  Of the two flavours the Raspberry and Elderflower was my favourite as I am a bit of of an elderflower fan.  Both flavours are sweet and lightly sparkling, and are very drinkable.   I was expecting it to be a lot more bubbly, but instead it is quite light and smooth and goes perfectly with those fruity meringues.

To create the ideal night in, Nola supplied us with some gorgeous meringue’s from the Meringue Girls, some ‘Proper Corn’, a delicious lemon and white tea candle and some itunes vouchers to set the tone.
