Capri in a Cup

Hey Fab Friends!

Every time I sip Limoncello I am immediately transported to the Amalfi Coast in Capri where I had tried it for the first time. I was blown away! If you aren’t into sipping an Aperol Spritz this summer, try one of these delicious limoncello drinks! They are really fast and completely hit the spot on a hot summer day.

what you do:

Simply add limoncello, vodka, and lemon juice to your chosen glass and then top with champagne and garnish. Then immediately head to the patio to enjoy!

This has really been my summertime cocktail. So refreshing. Garnishing it with fresh basil really adds another fresh element.

Next up!

Another easy one. And here is what you do: add equal parts : limoncello, vodka, and lemonade and throw those over ice and enjoy!

These drinks are perfect for wrapping up another summer in the sun. I hope after reading this you head to the store for some limoncello! I also hope that this fabulous Friday meets you with a some fun and a delicious, chilled cocktail!

“Why’s the Rum Always Gone?”

Happy Friday! We made it!

This post is going to be verrrrry fast and to the point today because this girl hasn’t had time for anything! I’ve been following the Johnny Depp trial and today finally are the closing arguments. I only thought it appropriate to do a “Pirates” themed cocktail.

I’m super sad Johnny won’t be involved with the Pirates franchise anymore so so pay a little homage to that, I give you the “Why’s the Rum Always Gone” cocktail. This super easy drink recipe is perfect for summer days and it makes such a pretty color thanks to one of my favorites Blue Curaçao.

Simply add everything to a glass with ice and enjoy!

Have the best Memorial Day weekend!

Blue as the Ocean

Well, here we are the last Friday of August. Hard to believe right? So many are back at school and vacations in the past. Now I know that Summer isn’t over until September 22nd but I’m also guilty of whipping out those pumpkins just a little early.

However…

To celebrate the unofficial end of Summer I thought I’d bring you a drink that’s as blue as the ocean! This super fun take on the classic Moscow Mule doesn’t need to stay in the summertime that’s for sure. Now grab your copper mugs and make a drink with me!

what you do:

Add all ingredients to copper mug except Ginger beer, then add crushed ice and pour Ginger beer the over ice. Garnish and serve!

I really like having Blue Curaçao on hand because you can do so many things with it. It’s also a liquor that you’ll have around for a while because it isn’t often used. This is a key ingredient for making a green or purple drink, or in this case a vibrant blue one.

Have a wonderful weekend and have a cocktail or two!
