Cheers to the Weekend: Cold Brew Coffee Cocktail & Cake

When it comes to coffee consumption, I lean toward the Lorelai Gilmore school of thought, ie: more, more, more! I like black coffee with a splash of cream in the morning (followed by a refill). I like short, concentrated cortados in the afternoon, or iced lattes when it’s hot. When it comes time to cheers to the weekend, why stop the coffee? Pair it with a splash of bourbon, and we’re en route to a Cold Brew Coffee Cocktail. What else is in store for the weekend?

Strawberry Detox Water To Waste Less and Drink More

Hulling strawberries is a must, but don’t be so quick to toss those strawberry tops. They still hold a lot of flavor. Unlike other water infusion recipes, this Strawberry Detox Water enables you to use the whole fruit. You’re not just sacrificing fruit to become all soggy and flavorless. Bonus points if you compost the tops after drinking the water too.

Cheers to the Weekend: White Wine Sangria and Cakes

This weekend, I'll be sipping with a view and with my best girl beside me (we love a dog-friendly rental!). We'll be posted by the lake in Deep Creek, Maryland, but here's a little wine inspiration for your weekend. This is also a nudge to soak up the warm days and crisp, cool nights of autumn, with a glass in hand.

Blackberry Jalapeño Margaritas and Cakes

I'm 34 now. Why would I leave my dog, go out, and pay for margaritas, when I could sip from home and watch true crime shows?!? Allow me to introduce you to these Blackberry Jalapeño Margaritas. They're worth staying home for. (The 30's bring so much wisdom, friends. If you're in your 20s, just know it gets so much better, or at least, way more comfortable.) Cheers!

Sun Tea Style Herbal Tisanes for Flavorful Hydration

“It’s funny how eight glasses of water a day seems impossible, but eight glasses of wine can be done in a meal.”  I’m not sure to whom that wise observation should be accredited (aside from the world of Instagram memes), but isn’t that so true? Why is it so hard to drink enough water, but glass after glass of wine goes by with ease? Sun tea style herbal tisanes offer a refreshing and flavorful way for you to achieve your summer hydration goals, so you can have that glass(es) of wine later.
