It's Weekend Cocktail Time! Time to shake it up and get on with your weekend. We've got another quick cocktail from Erin Hawley called the Grapefruit Sparkler. This bright bubbly beverage is perfect for all your holiday celebrations this year. From Erin: The Grapefruit Sparkler makes for a great holiday party drink.
Pair gin with vermouth and you get botanicals on top of botanicals. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but bring sherry into the mix and you'll find something both more smooth and electrifying, with hints of marcona almonds and a wonderful savory bite.
For the Punch: In a pitcher or punch bowl, combine gin, tea, bitters, and oleo-saccharum. Stir to combine and let sit for at least an hour at room temperature or up to overnight in the refrigerator. To serve, add ice to rocks glasses, pour in the punch and add a lemon wheel and celery stalk for garnish.

Here's a tasty seasonal twist on the beloved cocktail classic, the Old Fashioned. Not only is the smell of roasting citrus ah-may-zing, this Roasted Orange & Rye Whiskey cocktail is everything you'll ever need. Ever! 1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
I feel like I'm the queen of lazy cocktails. You can constantly find me of simple syrup for a quick-fix cocktail. Let's back up before the lip-stick smudged glass, wine ring stains on my counter, and spent citrus segments all happened. This drink was born from my laziest habit: the last pours of wine in the bottle.
It's been quite a week! I need a stiff drink. Sunday, I threw a birthday party for my blog, which is turning four this week. The party was such fun, but it was was a lot of work. I made a ton of Creamy Sesame Noodles, six batches of Berry, Plum and Rose Sangria, and several dozen Mint Chip ice cream sandwiches.
Save for a brief, childhood period of father-daughter bonding, I've never been one for watching (or playing) organized sports. Now I find the "stupor bowl" more of a nuisance than anything else. Traffic in the city becomes unbearable. People (let's just call a spade a spade - men) light Muni buses on fire (not that I can blame them).
I am a collector of recipes. Most recently I saved a recipe for infused drinks and then decided to make my own, starting with this lemon basil infused soda. Pinterest has become my salvation from clutter but I still tear a few recipes from the printed pages of magazines.
