Well hello there, it's my friend, the margarita!!! Was there ever a more perfect cocktail for the summer?! Tart, sweet, strong, salted rim, and served over ice for a refreshing way to celebrate the day. I don't think so. I first shared this recipe for easiest pitcher margaritas back in 2019. Since then I have made this pitcher margarita recipe countless times. I served it to numerous people, and thus, I continued to tweak it ever so slightly until it was absolutely … [Read more...]

Happy almost last day of 2020!!! 🎉 Whew-y that was one crazy year. Frist, Covid happened. Then, we lived through a Midwestern land hurricane in August, record breaking winds of 140 mph.

For anyone who love that spicy sweet combo/fruity drinks this one is for you! Fruity strawberries make this drink the perfect cocktail for you to sip on all summer long! It … [Read more...]
Pineapple Mojitos
Pineapple Mojitos are perfect on a hot day. They are refreshing, minty, slightly sweet with pineapple, and have a hint of lime! Friends, I know two things to be true for August: 1) It gets to be so incredibly hot and humid outside that you feel like you could cook an egg on the sidewalk (not that I would ever do that; gross!) 2) It's time to shove our faces full of fresh summertime produce....because it's end-ish of summer/peak season for all those lovely fruits and veggies! These Pineapple … [Read more...]
