Have you ever had a guava? I had my first one in Costa Rica almost ten years ago and fell in love with their unique flavor, that is hard to describe until you taste one! While we were in Hawaii a couple of weeks go, my love for the fruit reawakened with all of the guava that was readily available to us wherever we went! I knew I needed to find some when we returned home! While it is hard to find the pink variety here in Texas, I was able to find the white flesh variety at my local grocery store! Both are delicious by the way, so I snagged a bag of them! I used them to create my guava caipirinhas, which is a twist on one of my favorite Brazilian cocktails!

Summer is in full swing and there are so many things I love about this time of year. Pool parties and backyard BBQ's are happening left and right and with that comes the need for a go to drink recipe that can please a crowd. Summertime brings us so many fresh fruits that I can never resist the urge to create refreshing cocktails based upon whatever is in season. One of my absolute favorite cocktails in the summertime is sangria and my sparkling summer peach sangria is perfect to whip up and serve to all of your friends and family all summer long.
Hey guys! I hope you all had a fabulous 4th of July and if you are anything like me, you are already ready for the weekend! We were on vacation last week and I have been trying to get back into the swing of things since Monday and because of the holiday thrown in, I feel like I haven't known what day it is all week! I do know that I am ready for Friday and it's officially one day away which means cocktails are in my near future. Parks has been on another level of crazy this week and this mama could use one or two delicious cocktails about now. My Rhubarb Basil Martini is summer in a glass and is the perfect weekend cocktail!

With summer officially arriving less than a month away, I am gearing up for all things parties, cocktails, and a beach trip with my family at the end of June! I am craving salt water in my hair, sun-kissed skin, and a little relaxation with my favorite people. One of the things I look forward to the most is creating cocktails for everyone to bring down to the ocean to go alongside some delicious snacks while we all soak up the sun! I can't think of anything better than sipping on my ultimate summer Cajun Michelada!
Happy Thursday guys! One more day to get through until the weekend and I am already dreaming about refreshing cocktails because it has been getting hotttt y'all! And when the weather is hot outside there are only two things that sound good and those are being near a body of water and/or drinking a refreshing cocktail. Let's be honest, I'd prefer to be drinking a refreshing cocktail by that body of water, but I'll take either or right now! One of my favorite simple and refreshing cocktails is a screwdriver and I made it even more refreshing by creating a frozen version that is amped up in flavor! My frozen mint screwdrivers are perfect for your next beach vacation or day by the pool!
St. Patty's Day is tomorrow and while I would like to say we have some super exciting plans to celebrate, really I'd just be lying. We do have plans on seeing friends over the weekend, but I can guarantee you that it will all be extremely chill, which is right up my 33 year old alley if you know what I mean. But because I love any good reason to make a cocktail, I will be celebrating through my beverage of choice, which will most definitely contain alcohol. Enter the boozy green elixir, where healthy meets a cocktail and makes for the best of friends.
