Cherry Almond Smoothie

January 4, 2016 By Emily

Really, the title of this post should be "Cherry Almond Pie in a Glass" because it's that yummy! This smoothie was created because I had an abundance of frozen cherries in my way-too-small-freezer. My first idea was to throw some almond butter into the mix because cherries and almonds are meant to be. Then I thought, "why not bump up the almond flavor by throwing  in a tiny bit of almond extract?" Almond extract; talk about a ton of flavor! The result was -"why do I have to share this with my … [Read more...]

Pear Mimosa

December 28, 2015 By Emily

Friends, can you believe that New Year's Eve is only a few short days away? Seriously, where did 2015 go?! Did everyone have a good Christmas? Did Santa bring you everything you asked for? Did you spend time with family sipping hot chocolate by the fire place? Let me know; I'd love to hear the highlights of your Christmas! To celebrate 2015 coming to a close and the start of 2016 I just knew I had to make a special drink to toast with as the clock strikes 12. To me, some kind of champagne … [Read more...]

Pear Coconut Green Smoothie

November 30, 2015 By Emily

  Hey, Friends, how was your Thanksgiving? Did you eat a lot of turkey and pumpkin pie and spend time with your family? Did you spend the long weekend relaxing by reading a book or watching a movie? Ahh, I love long weekends; they are refreshing and very necessary every once in a while, don’t you agree? After all of that cooking and eating wonderful, comforting, rich holiday foods I think it’s time that we take a little break from cooking for a day. Heck, why should we even take the … [Read more...]

Coconut Pumpkin Spice Latte

October 12, 2015 By Emily

  Hi friends!!! There is so much excitement going on right now! As I am writing this post I am sipping on a homemade pumpkin spice latte! Or maybe that’s just a major caffeine high that I am feeling. If you don’t know by now, I am a tea drinker through and through. There are only a few occasions when I enjoy coffee; it needs to be loaded with sugars and flavorings, and the milk needs to be steamed so I don’t taste it’s evil nastiness (I hate the taste of cow’s milk!), and all that other … [Read more...]

Cherry Limeade

July 3, 2015 By Emily

Welcome to July! How did we get here and what happened to June? Summer is hands down my favorite time of year. I love spending time outside, even on hot days. You know those really scalding hot days where all you want to do is sit in front of a fan and not move? I experience those types of days often throughout the summer, especially because we don’t have central air in our charming, 105-year-old house. Don’t worry, we have 2 window air conditioners, but there are still parts of our house that … [Read more...]

Fresh Raspberry Margarita

May 29, 2015 By Emily

I am the first to admit that I have consumed my fair share of margaritas made from a bottled mix. During college my roommates and I really enjoyed margaritas. We would buy the pre-made mixes at the store and whiz them up in a blender. We also enjoyed a pitcher of margaritas at our favorite Mexican restaurant, and we would definitely take advantage of the 99 cent margarita nights on Fridays at a local restaurant. I mean, come on, 99 cents for a margarita! That place was buzzing with broke … [Read more...]

Strawberry Rhubarb and Honey Drink (2 Ways)

May 18, 2015 By Emily

Guess what, guess what! I have a little vegetable/fruit/herb garden growing in my backyard. Aside from growing a few potted herbs on the small porch of our old apartment, I have never grown a single thing in my life.  I cheated and purchased the already half-grown plants instead of starting them from seed. But hey, if I can keep them alive, that’s all that counts. Actually, we already lost one strawberry plant (yup, we got two of them). Some little critter dug it out of the ground only a … [Read more...]

Irish Coffee

March 16, 2015 By Emily

Happy St. Patrick’s Day friends, a day early, but close enough! If you tuned in for Friday’s post and Monday’s,  then you know by now that I studied abroad in Ireland my Junior year in College. Therefore, you know that I am smitten with Ireland and anything Irish. For this St. Patrick’s Day I wanted to share an authentic Irish drink. I was never much of a beer drinker while I was in Ireland. Bulmer’s Hard Cider was my drink of choice. I drank hard cider way before it was cool to drink it … [Read more...]

Coconut Bellini

February 16, 2015 By Emily

  Happy Monday, Friends! This particular Monday Robust Recipes has reached a milestone. A reason to celebrate. Today, Robust Recipes officially has 100 recipes!!!   Can you believe it? I sure can’t! All of that time spent cooking, sometimes re-cooking recipes, photographing, writing, and editing pictures has somehow turned into 100 recipes. Okay, I have a confession to make.   This recipe is actually my 99th recipe. Apparently I can’t count. Math was … [Read more...]
