The Ginger Snap is a seasonal twist on a Dark ‘n Stormy, with all the flavors we crave this time of year – spiced rum, ginger, and cinnamon.
Winter is coming. The Winter Solstice technically occurs towards the end of next week, but I’m already there. Even though I live in Southern California now, I’m a baby person who can’t handle any sort of weather even bordering on inclement. The cold has started to creep in and I haven’t been able to shake it. […]
This past Saturday, I had the incredible opportunity to spend the day with nearly 1000 badass lady entrepreneurs in downtown Los Angeles serving up some Yerba Mate Tea Cocktails with Argentinian Yerba Mate. Create & Cultivate, in its 6th year, is an uber hip conference, networking event, and lady fair for women looking to build […]
Do this booze blogger a solid and vote here, please! Since moving to Los Angeles from New York City, my relationship to the seasons has become…complicated. I still crave all of the things you would during the colder months – cozy fires inside, hot cider, crunchy leaves underfoot. But because this place is so head […]
Ah, eggnog…one of the most divisive holiday treats. It’s up there with candy corn and fruitcake and sweet Manischewitz wine.

As I’ve mentioned before, it’s […]

Would you like a…taste? ♪ ♫ Bow chicka wow wowwww. ♪ ♫ We’re taking cocktail porn to a whole new level with this little number. The spiciness is […]
Hold on to your winter hats, folks, have I got a heavenly treat for you! Boom. About a month ago, during the first blizzard-y squall that took hold of New York City….or was it the second? To be honest, it’s all blending together in a dirty, slushy mess in my head, not unlike the frozen sludge covering […]
Did you make New Year’s resolutions this year? How’s that going for you? Now that we’re full-on into mid January, have you stuck to your guns or chucked those notions of perfection out the window? In the past, I’ve done the ‘Dry January’ thing and I considered doing it again this year, but then I was like…”no”. I’m […]
Oh, hi! How does a steaming cup of spicy sugar butter sound to you right about now? I’ve always loved the idea of hot buttered rum but I haven’t always been crazy about the actual variations I’ve had over the years. Sugar? Butter? Spices? Rum?? Yes, to all of that! But once that combo is […]
