We’re right smack in the middle of fall now, and all the pumpkin-y goodness that comes with it. The Starbucks red cups are here and so are the lines of people waiting to get their drinks. If there’s one thing I love about the Holidays, it’s waiting in line. Just kidding. I hate waiting in…
Summer Mojitos
This is the perfect sipping drink for the hot days of summer. Enjoy at a summer BBQ, or all by yourself. We keep a Mojito base in the fridge for an even quicker preparation. I love the refreshing flavors of this drink. Just make sure to keep enough fresh mint around. If you’ve got enough space…

Basil Lemonade Champagne
Sometimes, experimenting with flavors is a lot of fun.

And trust me, even if you did drink something…

See, Crystal’s family has a tradition on Thanksgiving that I think is pretty awesome. While the food is being prepared, everyone gets together to enjoy each others company while also enjoying a Bloody Mary or…
Mint and Lemon Infused Water
We all know that we need to drink a lot of water. I find it hard to drink the allotted number of glasses of water, because water is boring. It’s void of taste, besides minerals. And sometimes that’s just what I’m looking for. Other times, I need some flavor. The problem with flavor is that…

Salty Dog. Screw Driver. Cosmopolitan. Lemon Drop. Harvey Wallbanger. Kamikaze. What do all of these things have in common? Vodka and Citrus. Flavored vodka is really popular right now. You can find just about any flavor you want on the shelves at the liquor store these days. The average price (depending on where you live)…
Mint-Lime-Cucumber Flavored Water
It’s the middle of the summer. You don’t have an air conditioner, and its hot! You sleep with the windows open all night, and you live like a vampire in the day, shades drawn, trying to keep the sun out as best you can. You’ve got it down to a science — a routine. Maybe you’ve…
