Pomegranate Rosemary Gin and Tonic

Pomegranate Rosemary Gin and Tonic

Pomegranate Rosemary Gin and Tonic

A gin and tonics is a classic cocktail that I like to give a festive spin on for the holidays with pomegranate and rosemary. This fun holiday cocktail is easy to make and is so pretty to serve at any gathering you might be attending or hosting over the month. The color of this cocktail alone is reason enough to make this delicious holiday version of a gin and tonic and it truly requires minimal effort which is something we all want during the holiday season. This recipe for a pomegranate rosemary gin and tonic will surely become a favorite drink to serve up every holiday season.

Easy Mojitos

Summer might be coming to a close, but that doesn’t mean we have to say goodbye to delicious and refreshing cocktails like the classic mojito! Mojitos originated in Cuba and are made with a few simple ingredients that result in one of the most delicious cocktails that are mildly sweet with the perfect balance of tartness from the lime. These easy mojitos are scaled down for two servings, but can very easily be made into a pitcher size for entertaining.

Anti-Inflammatory Spiced Rum Golden Milk

I was sitting at my hair salon in Baton Rouge over the weekend and my hair stylist started telling me about this amazing new Indian Cajun fusion restaurant in New Orleans where he had a delicious turmeric cocktail.  He said it was an after dinner drink and that it tasted amazing!  Ever since then I haven't been able to get that cocktail off of my mind!  I love a turmeric latte so I knew I would love a cocktail version of it just as much!  My anti-inflammatory spiced rum golden milk is going to your new favorite post dinner cocktail (or anytime cocktail for that matter)!

Skinny Margaritas: My Diary of Us

Skinny Margaritas

I'll be honest, this cocktail almost didn't happen.  Between moving next week and everything else going on including being exhausted, I was reallllll close to letting the ball drop on this week's Thirsty Thursday.  It was between my daily nap and shooting this cocktail.  But...I couldn't let you all down, so here you go, because that's how much I love you!  Today I whipped you up the tastiest and easiest skinny margarita!

It's almost summer and I know most of you are watching those figures, but there is absolutely no reason that you can't still enjoy your happy hour.  My three ingredient margarita is low calorie and will leave you with no guilt and on the right track with your diet.
