While champagne is the king of celebratory libations, I would choose sake bombs over some bubbly any day. Perhaps I associate sake bombs with festivities because going out for hibachi is usually my go to for birthday parties, both mine and others, but I think there’s something about being surrounded with your friends, shouting at the top of your lungs, slamming your fists on the table and making a drunken mess that makes celebrating all the more fun and heartfelt.
As I started a new chapter of my life and career this week, I knew no other way to commemorate than with sake bombs, only this time a little more daintily in the form of cupcakes. But don’t worry, despite the rich beer cupcake and decadent sake buttercream frosting, they’re still boozy enough to get the party started. Cheers!
