Minty Pomegranate Punch
Who’s thinking about falling off the #DryJanuary bandwagon this weekend? Hey, no judgement here, but today’s mocktail might be just what’s needed to reset your good intentions. Full of fruity flavors (and rich in antioxidants), this minty pomegranate punch is refreshing, fizzy, and just plain gorgeous. Since I’m trying to use all the pomegranates I […]
Minty Green Kombucha Smash Mocktail
*ed. note: Today we’re thrilled to welcome our much-loved former intern and current blogger over at This Brown Kitchen, Suruchi Avasthi, to share the ridiculously delish green drink she whipped up for our Month of Mocktails series. Take it away, S! How are your New Year resolutions going? Like many of you, one of my […]
Cucumber Basil & Citrus Mocktail
With the clean slate of the new year and resolutions in full swing, we’re kicking off a month of mocktails, à la Dry January, comin’ at ya every Friday. It starts with this citrusy concoction which I dreamt up while getting my daily fix of sparkling water (something about those bubbles!) and thinking about how much better it would taste with […]
Spiced Hard Cider
Click here for more recipes to whip up for your next fall gathering! “Cider has had a well-deserved comeback recently, and these days local producers are upping the cider game by making complex, refreshing versions that showcase local fruit (and are much less sweet than former “boozy apple juice” versions). As good as hard cider […]
Campfire Sour Cocktail
Click here for more recipes to whip up for your next fall gathering! “This cocktail has a story that, you guessed it, starts with a campfire. A few years back, we were camping in the Adirondacks with a group of friends. The sun went down, a campfire was lit, and a Mason jar of whiskey […]
Layered Chocolate, Banana, & Date Shake
September is a month of new goals and fresh starts, and for many of us, that holds just as true in the food and drink departments. Did anyone else feel like the last half of summer held a few too many opportunities for overindulgences? I definitely hit my limit over the Labor Day weekend with 3 days […]
Low Calorie Backyard Mojito
From Bonnie: “I call this a low calorie backyard mojito because I use limes from my tree and mint from my garden. It’s a basic mojito, but I exclude the sugar. The rum is sweet enough that the drink doesn’t really need the extra sugar.” Read the full story here: Entertaining With Bonni Taylor
French 75 Popsicles
From Bonni: “These French 75 popsicles are my favorite summer treat right now! The popsicles are alcohol-free (booze is added to the glass when serving), so it can be served with a sparkling blood orange or strawberry soda for kids or guests not drinking alcohol.” Read the full story here: Entertaining With Bonni Taylor

The Gelato Cocktail We’re Obsessed With
When the owner of one of Austin’s most beloved gelato parlors invites you to stop by his shop in the middle of July, you don’t have to think twice about it. And since we Camille Styles girls have a tendency to travel in a pack, I naturally responded to Andrew Sabola’s invitation with a resounding: Can the whole team […]
2 Sangrias to Up Your Summer Party Game
Sangria is one of my favorite summer drinks — it’s fruity and colorful and perfect for a party since you can mix up a huge batch the night before, then chill it and forget it while the fruit infuses it and makes it even more delicious while it sits. So, since pool parties are around […]

Peach, Ginger & Mint Slushie
Last week I had a bunch of overripe peaches on my counter (they’re so good right now, I can’t resist buying them ALL at the grocery!) and instead of tossing them, I quickly peeled, sliced and popped them in the freezer. And of course the only thing left to do with them this weekend was make […]

Tropical Almond Smoothie
You guys, my smoothie obsession may have just gone to a new level. With the addition of alcohol. Usually when I have friends over for brunch, I fall back on the old beverage standby’s: coffee and mimosas. As delicious as they both are, I’ve been wanting to shake things up a bit, but I always thought […]
The Cocktail Everyone is Drinking This Summer
If there’s one thing I took away from my recent trip to Tulum, it’s a newfound love for mezcal: the agave-based liquor is like the cool older cousin of tequila. It’s a strong, smokey, and complex liquid, perfect as a base for creative cocktails. There are tons of mezcal makers in Mexico, but my girl gang […]
