Happy New Year! Let’s grab a bottle of bubbly and toast to the end of 2020.

Wishing you a blessed and prosperous 2021, may it be filled with love, laughter, wealth and excellent health! Cheers!
Read More“Shelter in Place” really does force some changes in your life. A lot of people are facing situations that they never imagined they would be in. While we are doing our part in staying home, who says we can’t have a little boozy coffee break? This cocktail was a lot of fun to think through from ideation to creation. I don’t know about you but my social feeds were filled with beautiful images of whipped coffee this week. I was mesmerized by images of the fluffy concoctions tagged #dalgonacoffee and did some research to see what this trend was all about. In doing so, I learned a few things that really inspired me.
Read MoreToday is National Cocktail Day and I wanted to take a minute to raise a glass and say cheers! Many of us may be sheltered in place at home and not able to be outside but in this era where social distancing is more important than ever, here is a little liquid inspiration.

Read MoreIt’s been about two months since my epic summer vacation and I’m still missing my girls and the incredible time we had exploring the Adriatic corridor. This post is my homage to the time that we spent in Croatia. This past summer was my second trip to the beautiful country, and it was nothing short of remarkable. My first trip, I went to Split and explored the Dalmation Islands. This trip, was a quick trip to Dubrovnik aka Kings Landing! I learned on my first trip to Croatia that they are one of the most industrious countries in the world when it comes to Lavender.
Read MoreA few months ago I went on an epic vacation with my friends to Montenegro. We sailed around the coastal country for seven days living our best lives. We would dock daily in a new town and head out for exploration where we would inevitably stop for a drink at a cute cafe. Whenever we did that, I would always order an Aperol Spritz. Something about sipping on a spritz outdoors with a beautiful view of the sea really eased me into vacation mode. Ahh…if there is anywhere I could be at this exact moment it would be right back in Montenegro. Between the picturesque views of the beautiful mountains that butt up against the sea, the incredibly fresh and flavorful seafood Montenegro was nothing short of amazing.

That's because I really pick my drinks based on the occasion or mindset i'm in. So what occasion does a Greyhound fit in?

It's right around late March/early April, when the mornings are still brisk when you first wake up and the sun is out and ready to great you with a warm hug. Yes, it's the tail end of winter and the very first moments of spring. The scent of the first blooming cherry blossoms lingers in the soft distance and it's so euphoric.
Read MoreGrowing up, Milkis was a treat that I would indulge in whenever I was out shopping with my mom. Especially during the summer months. We would be navigating in and and out of the terminals and street markets and eventually pause for a refreshment break. I would grab the milkis and chug it down for instant refreshment and gratification.
Read MoreI love spicy drinks! I know, I'm a rare bird but let me go ahead and say that if you don't like spice, you can just eliminate the spicy ingredients and be left with a refreshing tequila cooler. I mean, at that point the name of the cocktail won't make sense so you might as well just pivot over to a margarita :) Just Kidding.
