Poinsettia Cocktails // Prosecco with Orange and Cranberry. Perfect to sip on Christmas morning or for your New Year’s Eve party.  I always overbuy Prosecco or champagne every holiday season. (And cheese, for some reason.) I don’t know what I think is going to happen, but I usually have an extra two or three bottles […]

Traditional Glogg Recipe or Mulled Red Wine is found everywhere in Scandinavia. Spiced and slightly sweet, this warm red wine will keep you warm and cozy. A few weeks ago, Wes and I took a very quick trip to Copenhagen. I fell in love with Scandinavian life and it is on my list to go […]

Fresh mango margarita on the rocks with lime salt and sugar rim. Refreshing and delicious!

I couldn’t wait […]

Cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, and citrus make this homemade spiced apple cider perfect for a chilly day. A few weekends ago we had a party at our house. 100 people-ish kind of party. It was so much fun, and as far as parties go, it was low maintenance. The hands down most popular thing that we […]

There really isn’t such thing as a bad beach day – all days spent with sun and sand are considered good in my book. But, when you add an icy cold adult mason jar beach cocktail, it goes from good to excellent. For this particular trip to the beach I made Mango Blackberry Mint Lemonade and […]
