Grilled Pineapple and Peach Silver Tequila Cocktail

August 30, 2016 by Vanessa Leave a Comment

My Grilled Pineapple and Peach Silver Tequila Cocktail reminds you of one of those fancy, chef-inspired drinks featured on Food Network. The catch? There isn’t one. It’s actually easy to make assuming you can turn on a grill and a blender.  Essentially, all you have to do is grill fresh pineapple and pitted peaches until grill marks appear and blend them with lime juice, ice, honey, and tequila. Cheers!

Spiked Watermelon Lemon-Lime Cocktail

It’s time for me to reveal one of the summer’s best cocktails. I can’t keep it to myself any longer! It would be unfair of me not to share my super refreshing Spiked Watermelon Lemon-Lime Cocktail since the blazing heat of summer is trying to melt you.

This cocktail, an ideal drink after work or as a weekend refresher, is just what we need to hang on to summer and survive the sun’s scorching rays. Lemonade, Pinnacle Cake Vodka, watermelon, and lime juice make it oh so refreshing! The watermelon is sweet and the lemonade with lime gives it a citrus zing.

Bright in flavor and color, this beauty is ready for a pageant crown and sash.
Everyone needs a cocktail like this on a hot summer day. Fire up the blender!

Plug in your blender or Magic Bullet (<< the best small kitchen appliance ever!) and follow this super simple recipe.

(I seriously hope you enjoy this drink since I broke my camera lens trying to get into a place to shoot it. Yep, you read that right. So, I have two confessions. 1.) This photo was shot with my iPhone. 2.) I’m a total clutz. I blame it on my height. I’m about as graceful as a running giraffe.)

Oh well. I think I’ll make myself feel better while sipping this cocktail. Cheers!

It’s 5 O’Clock Somewhere Guava Cocktail

June 24, 2016 by Vanessa Leave a Comment

I used to work in a high stress job around over 500 people a day so Jimmy Buffet’s lyrics “it’s five o’clock somewhere” didn’t just run through my head on Fridays but all week long. If you’re like me, one sip of this frothy tropical cocktail and you’ll feel like your toes are sinking into the sand.

When we visit Mexico and stay at an all-inclusive resort, we hear dual blenders firing behind the bar to serve poolside tourists all afternoon. It’s 5 O’Clock Somewhere Cocktail doesn’t require any complicated prep or a blender. Simply shake it up and strain into a ice filled glass and you’re on your way to an oasis. Just add flip flops and a lounge chair.
