Offshore Fisherman
A drink inspired by long nights offshore fishing when you need a drink to warm your soul with the cold saltwater spray in the air.
Bourbon Presse
The Bourbon Press is the absolute perfect cocktail for sipping on a warm afternoon (or morning - it's brunch-appropriate too). This recipe is simple and fun.
Minty Lime Kombucha Cocktail
The lovely combination of whiskey, citrus, mint, and kombucha come together in one tasty drink that is full of life and good energies.
Spring Thyme Fizz
You can make it a cocktail or a mocktail - either way it's going to... rock-tail?
Apple Peel Bourbon
The idea for this drink comes from Tara Duggan, who wrote about apple peel-infused bourbon, spiced with a bit of cinnamon and clove, in her cookbook, Root to Stalk. (Get the recipe here: https://food52.com/recipes/31446-apple-peel-bourbon.) It's perfect for strangely hot fall days when Mercury is in retrograde and you want to simultaneously pick apples and sit on a beach somewhere with a cool, fizzy drink. I'm in love with the idea of a cold fall-spiced drink -- it's as good a reason as any to peel a bunch of apples and stock up on ginger beer.
Pumpkin Lemonade
This Pumpkin Lemonade recipe is a refreshing, unexpected way to use up that extra bit of leftover pumpkin puree! Garnish with cinnamon or nutmeg. Serve cold.
Bourbon Street Sour
My friend gave me this recipe but I tweaked her version by adding Italian Maraschino Cherries (Luxardo is a good brand and it makes a world of difference), some of the Maraschino Cherry juice, and switching the whiskey out for bourbon (because it was what I had at the time)... and let me just tell you, it came out to be the most amazing Sour I have had!!! It has nothing to do with New Orleans but I just thought the name was creative. Great for holiday parties!
Linie Aquavit Cocktails - Sunrise Over The Fjord
My new favorite brunch or anytime cocktail. This is a Linie aquavit cocktail recipe that's a spin on a grapefruit mimosa, with a twist of a French 75 thrown in.
Blackberry Mint Cordial
Often times I just like things straight forward, no muss. For this mint cordial recipe, I muddled the blackberries with lime and mint until juicy and fragrant.
Smoked Manhattan
This smoked manhattan is a great drink recipe to serve if you're entertaining and looking for an extra flair in your presentation. You can use any whiskey.
Blackberry French 75s
I have altered the classic a little, swapping Prosecco for the usual Champagne and adding a blackberry syrup rather than simple syrup. The blackberries make the cocktail feel extra summery to me and turn the cocktails a lovely ruby jewel tone.
Frozen Watermelon Margarita
What’s better than an icy cold slice of watermelon on a hot day? An icy cold frozen watermelon margarita! Allow at least 30 minutes to freeze the watermelon. Or, if you want to prepare ahead of time, freeze it for up to 24 hours before you assemble the cocktail.
The Firlock
Cold brew combined with Fernet Branca spirits makes a quintessential brunch cocktail recipe -- a buzzy beverage that creates a bold and boozy twilight effect.
Tom Collins
This classic Tom Collins cocktail is an easy-to-make refresher. A pared-down garnish of a lemon wheel and cherry keeps the focus on the citrusy gin.
Whiskey-Peach Cocktail
Recently I started playing around with how I like whiskey. I'm not cool enough to drink it straight. So I added a little peach with some thyme topping it off with club soda for a little fizz. And let me tell you, this is one good cocktail. Go ahead, give it a try, you will love it.
Clementine Simple Syrup
This simple syrup is just that, simple! With only clementines, granulated sugar, and water, you can make this wonderful recipe.
Candied Blood Oranges and Simple Syrup Infusion
Making this candied blood orange recipe is a truly sensory experience, from the aromatic simmering water, sugar, & orange slices to the translucent slices.
Tropical Pineapple Sorbet
This creamy pineapple sorbet recipe is short and sweet and if you don’t have an ice cream maker, you can make popsicles or freeze it in an ice cube tray.
Whiskey Sour
This whisky sour recipe is a study in simplicity—whiskey, sugar, and citrus. An egg white adds a light, frothy, textural element to the cocktail.
Homemade Alcoholic Ginger Beer
Whether you're a Moscow Mule fan or just enjoy sipping it with ice, making alcoholic ginger beer at home will mean the end of store-bought ginger beer days.
Jeffrey Morgenthaler's DIY Grenadine
This recipe contains a wholesome, 4-ingredient DIY Grenadine for better drinks at home -- plus a gutsy technique for juicing a pomegranate without seeding first.
Blood and Sand
Amping up the scotch and the orange juice by 1/4 ounce creates a more dynamic blood and sand cocktail recipe that fascinates from the first sip to the last.
Limequat Gimlet Recipe
When faced with a bucket of limequats, a lovely cross between a lime and a kumquat, I made this twist on a classic gimlet recipe – and I loved it.
Champagne Jello Shots
These adorable jello shots are perfect for any occasion, especially New Year’s Eve! I saw this recipe on Erica’s Sweet Tooth and could hardly wait to make them for NYE. They’re easy to make and look so fancy with the festive toothpicks. The guests were “oohing” and “aching” when I walked in with these cuties. Make them with any sweet bubbly wine or champagne.
