Chocolate Covered Cherry Spiked Milkshake – Thirsty Thursday
I love ice cream, I love chocolate and I love bourbon. Yep, ice cream and bourbon. It is getting hot outside and the best way to beat the heat is a spiked milkshake. Milkshakes with liquor are awesome! I have created a new spiked milkshake that mimics the flavors of a cherry cordial. It is…

Hurricane #2
So I am getting ready to go through my first hurricane. To get into the spirit of things I decided to make a hurricane cocktail. This is a basic hurricane recipe, but made with grenadine instead of passion fruit juice. Delicious and the ingredients were easy to come by. A good thing when all of…

Pear Martini
The other week I recreated the infamous honey baked ham. In doing this, I used pear nectar. The jar of pear nectar that I had was way too big, so I had a lot left over. I used the remaining nectar to make martinis. Yep, pear martinis. They were so good that you could barely taste…
Strawberry Daiquiri
It has been super nice here in DC. This weekend is supposed to reach the 80’s. So I decided to make a nice refreshing cocktail. This week’s cocktail is the strawberry daiquiri. This is a quick and easy rum based drink, as long as you have a blender. No blender, then this might not be…

A couple of weeks ago I picked up an ice cream maker at the discount store. It was cheap, but it expanded my culinary reach by a lot. So I made this super simple lemon sorbet. After tasting it, I knew it would be the base of an amazing cocktail. So I had a few…
