version. we ll have it paired with the nog cupcake. take a bite of the cupcake and wash it down with a drink. it s very complementary. the vanilla essence in the bellini. the virgin bellini plays with it. next up is the crimson and cream. a raspberry red velvet. it s also paired with a belhaven, a creamy scottish beer. has a bit of a spice and plays nicely with the cream cheese frosting and cinnamon dusting. very complementary flavors. and then the dirty. the dark chocolate truffle with the cocoa bird pear cider. delightfully sweet pear cider from sweden. and pear and dark chocolate are an amazing combination. really super fun and surprising and unexpected. then we pair it with a drink from south africa. i need to do this for my next holiday party. bring in cupcakes and wine and
