I was going back through all my cocktail posts and I realized I’d never done the infamous G&T. You’re probably wondering why? I mean, I’ve got all the classics here. The Martini, the Manhattan, Bloody Mary, Mimosa, Margarita and the Mai Tai… and that’s just the M’s! If it’s got liquor and was made before… Continue reading Gin & Tonic

Golden Fizz Cocktail
After a couple weeks of rum-based cocktails I thought I’d switch things up and go back to another summer liquor: gin. If you’ve been following along, you know that I’m a big gin fan. Whether it be a martini, a gin rickey, or a negroni, if it’s got gin, most likely you’ll find me sipping… Continue reading Golden Fizz Cocktail
Blueberry Coconut Mojito
Monday is July 4th. The day America celebrates its independence from England. I love the 4th of July. Backyard barbecues, block parties, fireworks and ice cold cocktails. Yeah, nothing goes better with a hot dog or hamburger than a beer. Unless it’s a cocktail. A cocktail that’s full of ice and bubbles. My favorite cocktail… Continue reading Blueberry Coconut Mojito
Star Cocktail
November wouldn’t be November without at least one apple cocktail. While apples have been in season for over a month, this is the month when pumpkin recipes step aside and apple takes its place. Everywhere you look are apple recipes ranging from pies to pork chops. Apples go so well with so many different things,… Continue reading Star Cocktail
Mint Blackberry Lemonade
I know I usually do cocktails on Fridays, but this week I wanted to bring you a refreshing beverage that’s alcohol-free! I know, you’re probably wondering what’s wrong with me? Nothing! It’s summer and while I’ll never pass up a fizzy cocktail, a non-alcoholic drink can be just as refreshing and won’t leave you feeling… Continue reading Mint Blackberry Lemonade
Champagne Bowler
With Passover this weekend and Easter next weekend, it seems like the perfect time to break out the spring cocktails. What’s a spring cocktail? Drinks with bubbles and/or fruit. I love a good spring or summer drink. As the weather warms up, now is the time to imbibe those cocktails that are on the lighter… Continue reading Champagne Bowler
Gin and Sin
Since the beaches reopened, my family and I have spent a lot of time there. It’s so nice to be outside and play in the cool water. We’ve built sand castles, swam, body surfed and boogie boarded. It’s been wonderful! It almost feels like a normal summer. All this beach time makes me think of… Continue reading Gin and Sin
Orange Fizz
Brunch is always a big deal for Mother’s Day. Even this year, when no one’s venturing out to restaurants, we’re still ordering in and making a big deal out of the holiday. And we should! Mom’s a big deal. She’s there morning, noon and night. She’s that shoulder to cry on, that ear to bend… Continue reading Orange Fizz
The Disinfectant
As you all know we’re stuck inside… “safer at home”. We’re trying to work or be intimate with our significant other all while homeschooling or cutting our hair. It’s really hard! All we want (and by we I mean I) is to get out and be with people. In person! But between dousing ourselves with… Continue reading The Disinfectant
Sgroppino
It’s such a strange time right now. We’re all suddenly performing multiple roles; before we were simply stay-at-home mom, bread winner, teacher, or student. Now we’re all four (or more). While trying to balance all those roles, we’re also desperately trying to keep our households fed and find enough toilet paper and paper towel to… Continue reading Sgroppino
Radler
I’m sure you’ve noticed I’ve been a little quiet on the cocktail front this month. Well, that’s because so many people invoke the “dry-January” pledge and choose to skip alcohol for the first month of the year. I get it. After the holidays and the non-stop excess, both in the food and drink department, everyone’s… Continue reading Radler
