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!

As long as temps are in the triple digits, I’m still wholeheartedly embracing rosé season, and this slushy cocktail is the perfect way to do it. It’s a fitting drink to close out our #SipsForSummer series, but be sure […]

Have you ever been on vacation and had such an amazing meal that, for the rest of time, you feel transported back whenever you taste something similar? That’s what this drink does for me.

Grapefruit-Jalapeño Margarita

Every year, I choose an unofficial “drink of summer” that I find myself mixing up for almost every weekend get-together at our house. The requirements for said drink are: it must be fruity, boozy, able to serve a large crowd, and most important, extremely easy to pull together since I’d rather be hanging out in the pool […]
