Such a perfect and easy summer cocktail! This Strawberry Basil Sangria is exactly what your summer BBQ or picnic needs! Did you have a good holiday weekend? We WORKED. We pulled weeds, bushes, edged, and spread mulch.
Hello everyone! How was your weekend? Ours was really nice and relaxing. We grilled, and had a fire pit, spent some time with friends, and of course, little league Mr. Allie and I are loving how little league forces us to just slow down, focus on our family, and enjoy the beautiful Spring weather.
A play on a Dark 'n' Stormy cocktail using fresh, seasonal stone fruit.
How to make crockpot apple cider at home! Set in the morning or before bed & 8 hours later you will have a house that smells amazing and fresh apple cider! Have you ever heard of mouth hallucinations...? Wait. Who am I kidding? Of course you haven't. I just coined this term yesterday.
Oh, delicious bubble tea. I could subsist on those sweet, chewy tapioca pearls. This is a problem because the only place that serves it on my side of town has recently decided to use old boba in their tea. Fresh boba is chewy, soft and lightly sweet.
There was a time when I would only drink (and serve) margaritas in the summer. That pretty much still holds true except for this blood orange margarita that I'll start craving right after the holidays when blood oranges come on the market. Beyond that fantastic cocktail, there is just something about them that screams summer to me.
You have about a month to make these before Clementine season is officially over. Don't miss it. Have you ever had a Clementine? They are tart, tangy and have a slight sweetness to them. A cross between a mandarin and a sweet orange, they are easy to peel and taste slightly different than both.
Margaritas were the first cocktail that I learned to mix, and I developed a taste for them at an early age. Too early, most Americans would agree. When I was in high school, a super cool young woman named Kim rented a room in our house.
I made this amazing blackberry lemonade using SPLENDA ® Sweeteners as part of a sponsored post for Socialstars #SplendaSweeties #SweetSwaps. All opinions are my own. I love lemonade and especially in the summer time. With Fourth of July this weekend it feels like it is officially summer and this blackberry lemonade is the perfect summer time drink.
So spring is here! At least it was, until a few days ago, when mid Missouri decided to put it in reverse and go back to winter for a week or so. But the leaves are back, the dandelions are back, the dogwoods are flowering and the cardinals are chirping.
