End-of-the-World Whiskey Sours
Every now and then someone declares that The End of the World is coming and I take it as an opportunity to make this Armageddon Drink recipe. Just in case.
The easiest chocolate Frappe' with a nutmeg twist
This is the easiest and quickest frappe' to sip every summer night on the stup.
Rhubarb Lime Spring Spritzer
When a neighbor let me pick rhubarb, I found ALittleZaftig's recipe for One-pot Rhubarb Cordial, Sauce, & Compote (http://www.food52.com/recipes/12016_onepot_rhubarb_cordial_sauce_compote). When I finished making it tonight, I really wanted a cool, refreshing drink in my hot kitchen on this early June night.. A little sweet, a little tart, a lovely pale pink -- this is the result, delightful!
Tuscancello Fizz
Summertime dinners in Tuscany end with limoncello and the scent of lavender wafting through the soft air. This fizzy drink pays a tribute to those evenings. (You can make your own lavender-infused simple syrup or buy a bottle of Monin brand. You can also make your own limoncello or use your favorite store-bought brand.)
Mexican Market Float
We love all the wonderful flavors of soda we find at the Mexican markets in our area and Jarritos is our favorite brand. Used to be we only saw these unusual flavors available in old fashioned glass bottles at restaurants. My son likes Tamarindo (tamarind) and I've decided to take it to the next level by using it in a float. (Photo found at Walmart.com)
Dandelion Clementine Cooler
If you like the classic Campari and soda with orange you'll like this farmer's market beauty. The bitterness of dandelion with the brightness of the clementines is right on time. Have a look. - frankieolives
ZESTY HALF AND HALF
I love ice tea and drink it all year long. There is always a jar brewing on my countertop; what is called sun tea. A big squeeze of lemon juice or two or three are always added...no sugar. In restaurants I often order that drink named after a famous golfer. I love the combo of ice tea and lemon juice. Sometimes it is called a half and half because that is the ratio of ice tea to lemon and water. My version has a rim of lemon zest to punctuate the flavor of the lemon.
Salty Poodle
This drink is not as strong as a greyhound or a salty dog, but it is cuter and more user friendly--like just about every breed that has been mixed with a poodle! - NWB
Cranberry Spritzer
I love infused vodkas. Cranberries give this drink a great tart flavor.
Watermelon Anise Seltzer
The quality of the watermelon used is important. It needs to be ripe and sweet- the kind that releases its aroma as soon as you slice it and the flesh of which seems to dissolve when eating it ( as opposed to the fibrous, light pink and watery varieties). I personally believe that it benefits the fruit if it is well chilled prior to slicing it. If you have a cold brook to lay it in for a while, even better. The rest of the ingredients also should be chilled well, but pay attention to the anise liqueur as it tends to crystalize at too low of a temperature. I am sorry that I am not able to submit along a photo, but the watermelon season is not quite here yet.
Mock Jaboticaba Pop
This recipe was inspired by a friend of mine that lives in Hawaii. She has a jaboticaba shrub growing on her property. A little while ago she was telling another friend of ours and myself about the fruit on the tree. We asked her to try making a jelly out of it, and then of course send us some. She had never canned anything before and we were sort of far away to be able to help her, so her first attempt ended up being more of a syrup. Her second attempt resulted in a jelly and she sent us jars of each. The syrup is perfect for making soda with. The fruit remimded me of something between a blackberry and a cranberry and so with a little tinkering I came up with my mock jaboticaba syrup.
Summer Seltzer, Winter Wellness
When a friend told me she and her husband were drinking Turmeric-Ginger Tea during cold season, I asked how they made it, and she came with a recipe in hand, without another reminder! I made it and was deeply pleased with it. But now it's summer, the temperature's reading in the 80's, and I wanted something cold when I came in from gardening. So here's the summer version, thirst quenching and energizing. I've left it at the purist stage, but the original directions included sugar and milk, if you prefer.
Apple-Mint-Lime cooler (Lemonade)
A tasty combo of Apple juice, spritzed up with Lemonade and the herbiness of Mint. Garnish this recipe with a mint leaf and a lime wedge. Cheers!
Avocado Sea Salt Shake
This Sea Salt And Avocado shake recipe has the creamiest, dreamiest texture imaginable and the slight hints of salt and coconut really put it over the top.
Frothy Sweet Almond Drink (Shrab al Loz)
This delicious Syrian almond drink is served at parties and happy occasions. You may not want to wait for a celebration to make this shrab al loz recipe though!
Rhubarb and Basil Spritzer
I'm just back from a fabulous day spent preserving and canning rhubarb creations at Mrs. Wheelbarrow's beautiful home with other Food52 peeps, including our fearless leader Amanda. As per usual with a Food 52 event, the food was amazing and plentiful: homemade cheeses by SallyCan, frittata, salads, homemade sausages by the Charcutepalooza Queen herself, and other spreads, pickles and preserves....and the desserts! There was plenty to choose from. Yours truly was in charge of beverages, and I wanted something light and refreshing. I have had strawberry and basil cocktails before, but the theme of the day was Rhubarb - so here is my take on a Rhubarb and Basil Cocktail. They're refreshing and light as promised, not too sweet, and you can booze them up or down or not at all according to your preference.
Banana-date shake
This shake is a meal on the go, IMO. It's light enough so that it doesn't way you down , gives you lots of energy, and cools you down, as well.
Orange Freeze Float
On particularly hot days, my mother would break out the blender and make this frosty recipe for orange freeze floats. This is the perfect sherbert treat!
Raspberry Lambic Float
This comes from my friend Danny. My friend Danny who hates dessert. Several years ago we used to have these Iron Chef offs. Four of us would each make two dishes in amuse bouche form. Then we invited two friends to be our Jeffrey Steingartens. They would blind judge and deem someone the winner. I don’t think Danny won for this dish but he should have. I recreated this recipe last summer when having my annual girls, weekend with my god-daughters (I made theirs with raspberry soda). The picture is a larger format then what the recipe calls for.
Cure for the Common Kir
Mommy's little summer secret . . .
Dirty Palmer (Green Tea-Ginger)
I make ginger green tea syrup - it's great in Greek yogurt but delicious with very fizzy water, vodka, and lemonade.
Peppermint Lemon Stick Cocktail
For this Lemon Stick recipe, simply jam a hollow peppermint candy into a lemon as a straw, and you have an instant treat. It's sweet, juicy, sour and minty.
Southern Comfort Orangie (Orange Juice)
This is a twist on the whiskey sour cocktail. We love this Southern Comfort with Orange Juice recipe when the weather gets hot, and after all the work is done.
Lime Mint Spritz
Moving to the desert has given me a new obsession with cold drinks- you can only convince yourself to chug so much water! This recipe sprung from a local deli's lime spritzer offering that I craved every day last summer and the fact that I just can't tame my mint! So what if I accidentally re-invented a mojito? I certainly won't judge if you a splash of rum (preferably white).
