Hello Darlings! I love lemonade. It just screams summer. It is tart, sweet, and refreshing all at the same time, and add a splash of vodka and you’ve got a perfect drink for sipping during that picnic in the park! Last year’s Summer Drink Series featured Spiked Lavender Lemonade and Spiked Basil Lemonade (both of which I love and have made countless times!) so I’m adding to the list with Spiked Pomegranate-Mint Lemonade! I think one of the best things about lemonade is its incredible ... Read More about Summer Drink Series: Spiked Pomegranate-Mint Lemonade

Hello Darlings! Last year I started my Summer Drink Series on the Summer Solstice. This year in my new apartment (tour to come!)

Summer Drink Series: Kiwi-Lime Martini
Hello Darlings! Happy Friday! If you’ve been reading my blog for a while you might know I’m a bit of a texture freak. Were talking about having to take the skin off garbanzo beans for a smoother product freak. So when I was mixing up this Kiwi-Lime Martini I was debating whether to leave the seeds in for a super cool looking drink or sieving them out for a smoother sip that looked like a green highlighter came undone in my vodka bottle. Aesthetics won and I am super pleased with the result! ... Read More about Summer Drink Series: Kiwi-Lime Martini
