What is the first thing that comes to our mind when we get an invitation to a party? THE DRINKS, right? People who love to party – be it attending or throwing one at your place, would agree that the drinks steal the show. So, you can now imagine how much power the Bartender holds!…
Cocktails
Strawberry Margarita
Try this Strawberry Margarita for an easy twist on a classic cocktail. Apparently, I’m on a bit of a Strawberry Margarita kick. But strawberries are in season and it’s hot, so can you blame me? This is a super easy summer cocktail to mix up. All you need are a few strawberries, some lime, tequila, and…
Aperol and Gin Cocktail
This Aperol and Gin Cocktail is an easy drinking delicious cocktail for summer! I am totally ready to kick back on the deck with one of these in hand! It is HOT and I don’t think I have any motivation to move, but I could probably get it together long enough to shake up this…
Cinco De Mayo Cocktail Round-Up
Who’s ready to celebrate Cinco de Mayo? Me! And hopefully you as well. We are traveling this weekend so here’s a round-up of some of my favorite recipes to celebrate with this week. Any drink that uses grapefruit is a winner in my book- try this Grapefruit Margarita. Looking for something a little different? This Pepper Jelly…
Mexican Mule Cocktail
Man, I could really go for a Mexican Mule cocktail right now. We are in the process of looking for a new apartment and things are starting to feel a little stressful. The housing market isn’t great around here unless you’re selling so this hasn’t been terribly fun thus far. I’m eager to just find…
Raspberry Moscow Mule
Try this Raspberry Moscow Mule for a springtime variation on the classic cocktail! Doesn’t it seem like Moscow Mule mugs are suddenly everywhere? I mean, I obviously love the cocktail, but it seems like every store now wants to sell the classic copper mug. I guess I’m okay with it, it just seems a little…
Old Cuban Cocktail
Love Mojitos but looking for a little twist? Try an Old Cuban Cocktail! It’s official, spring is here! Of course, we’re talking about spring in New England, so it’s still 35 degrees in the morning but the temperatures have been climbing all day and should hit 70 in a few hours. And it looks like…
Meyer Lemonade
Homemade Meyer Lemonade is naturally sweet, delicious, and so easy to make at home. I had every intention of posting a regular Sunday cocktail this week. But when faced with a bag of meyer lemons on sale, and temperatures in Boston creeping up to 50 (and even flirting with 60), I made Meyer Lemonade instead….
Blueberry Margarita
This blueberry margarita is a refreshing twist on the classic cocktail. We’re sticking with the spring theme this week with this delightfully refreshing blueberry margarita. We are traveling this weekend so I’ll keep this nice and short- this is a cocktail you’re going to want to make. Fruity and tart, this goes down nice and…
Spring Thyme Spritzer
This gin and aperol based spring cocktail is a light and delicious way to ring at the start of the season! Did you enjoy the first weekend of Spring? Here in Boston, it snowed on Friday and Saturday, but it’s bright and sunny and looking very Spring-like today. Of course, it’s still 31 degrees (feels…
