Cocktail of the Week: The Gisele

Cocktail of the Week: The Gisele

There’s nothing sexier than a long-legged Brazilian who wears nothing more than a push up bra and a thong. When Gisele Bundchen first appeared on the cover of Vogue at age 18, she single-handedly ended the pencil thin “heroin chic” era made famous by Kate Moss.  The curvaceous, sun-kissed blonde was immediately crowned “The Most Beautiful Girl in the World,” earned her wings as the next Victoria’s Secret angel, and by age 26, became the highest paid supermodel. Her statuesque, curvaceous figure was reportedly to blame for the rise of breast enhancement surgeries performed in Brazil (36,000 to be exact). This fashion goddess has even seduced countless men, including actor Leonardo Dicaprio current husband, NFL star Tom Brady.  Not bad for an aspiring volleyball player who was discovered in McDonalds.

As Bundchen continues to grace over 500 magazine covers, fashionistas and fans alike can have a taste of the sexy supermodel without heading to Rio. Holly Roberts of D’Or, located in New York City, introduces the Gisele, an elegant, sparkling, and luxurious cocktail infused with fresh fruit.  The Gisele is perfect after watching the latest trends off the runway, or just to look chic after a hard day at work. This heavenly, bubbly cocktail is so delicious and gorgeous thanks to its jeweled-tone hue, that we wouldn’t be surprised if Bundchen herself would leave behind her West Village townhouse just for a taste or two. Now that’s what we call a happy hour.
