Cocktails
Sangrita & Tequila Sippers
To prepare the cucumber cups: Cut off the ends of the cucumber, then slice each cucumber into three pieces, about 3″ long. Using a vegetable peeler, peel off about 3/4 of the cucumber skin, leaving a little on the bottom. With a melon baller, scoop out the seeded part of the cucumber, leaving about 1/2″ […]

Island Hopper
If you’ve been following me on instagram then you already know that Michael and I spent last week doing some major island hopping in the Caribbean. (Not a terrible way to close out February, I must admit.) After a bit of research, we decided to toss hotels and complicated itineraries to the wind and board […]

How to Setup a Holiday Bubbly Bar
I’ll let you guys in on a little secret: I’m shamelessly lazy when it comes to making cocktails at parties. I’ve never been able to figure out how some hosts are able to mix and shake drink after drink… and still have time to actually talk to their guests. Instead, I rely on a couple of go-to strategies to […]
Turmeric Tea Latté
I’ve been really into using turmeric lately, both for its health benefits (it’s long been used for its powerful anti-inflammatory properties) and the distinctive gingery flavor it brings to dishes. Since my favorite drink of the summer was the Golden Eye, I decided it was time to experiment with creating a warming winter version that would […]

Lavender Fields Cocktail
Most people think of lavender as a summertime ingredient, but once it’s been dried it can be a wonderfully subtle drink garnish in the fall. Dried florals in general feel like autumn to me, reminiscent of wreaths and golden fields. This year we’ve partnered with Terlato Wines to create a lavender-inspired fall cocktail using their […]

There’s absolutely no better way to spook your guests than with creepy crawly (but still delicious!) […]
Cucumber-Ginger Sangria

Since most of my experiments have also been super spicy, I’ve been searching for the perfect cooling cocktail to pair them with, and here it is! This Cucumber-Ginger Sangria packs its own little kick of heat with […]

The Palm Springs Spritz
The end of summer is always a little bittersweet: hello, cooler temps and pumpkin spiced lattes, goodbye lazy days and afternoons by the pool! This fall I’m determined to hold onto a little bit of summer’s more carefree attitude, and part of that means taking time to indulge in those take me away moments that help us […]
