Whatever you do, don’t Google “lemonparty.” This drink is not inspired by what you’d find (and likely be horrified by) if you did that. Rather, it’s the name of the group several friends of mine and I have in the video game Rock Band. Of course, the band name is inspired by the aforementioned website, but that’s another story. Band names are supposed to be rude.

In honor of the new Beatles Rock Band coming out September 9 and the reunion of the band last night, I created a Lemonparty cocktail just for the bandmates and its groupies. All around it was a huge hit (nearly an entire bottle of vodka was consumed), taking advantage of the new, limited edition Absolut Boston vodka (review here), which is flavored with black tea and elderflower. Delish!

The Lemonparty Cocktail
1 1/2 oz. Absolut Boston
1/4 oz. Limoncello
sparkling wine (I used cava)

Add Absolut and Limoncello to a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake and strain into a champagne flute. Top with sparkling wine and serve promptly.
