The Blue Blizzard

Well. We’ve made it to Friday, Friends.

Chilly out there, eh? It is in my neck of the woods. That’s exactly why I’ve brought you the perfect boozy winter cocktail. It’s very simple, too. I always say to have a bottle of Blue Curaçao around (I’ve had mine for a long time) because you can do some really cool drink colors with it.

Okay, on to the cocktail.

what you do:

Simply throw everything into a cocktail shaker with ice, except the soda. Then, strain into a martini glass and top with the soda.

For the rim:

Dip in corn syrup (but not too much like I did here) and then dip in a white sprinkle.

Have a fabulous weekend!

A One Pot Wonder

Hello Friend’s and Happy Thursday!

Since this is a very crazy work week for me, I am a day late in posting my easy one pot weeknight recipes. So I’m going to get right to the point. I have to say if you like salmon… MAKE THIS! I have absolutely added it to my dinner rotation. Its fast, easy, and melt in your mouth delicious. It’s also low carb if that’s your thing but feel free to add pasta of any kind.
what you need:

what you do:

Add some oil and then your salmon. Season with a little red pepper flakes and cook on each side for about 7 minutes or until done depending on your salmon size. Remove from pan and garlic, and onion. Let simmer for a few until fragrant. Throw in mushrooms. Let them cook. Then add in your cream, milk, cream cheese, and other cheeses. Toss in spinach, let dramatically shrink, and add in salmon. Throw it over some pasta or eat as is.

I hope you get to eat something delicious this Thursday!

An Eggscellent Cocktail

I’ve got a question for you. Would you like to know my special talent? It’s making the biggest effing mess in the kitchen when I make a cocktail. Kidding.

It’s true but my real question is:

Have you ever added an egg to your cocktail?

And really, why do it? Long story short, it adds texture to a drink without adding any extra flavor.

Today I’m bringing you a super cool an quite beautiful drink recipe. This is an easy one that is sure to impress your guests or even just for a girls night.

what you do:

Throw the blueberries, lemon juice, and sugar (I used Stevia) in your cocktail shaker and muddle. Add gin and egg white.

shake, shake, shake!

This recipe makes two drinks, so pour over ice and garnish with lemon. I like Hendricks gin but use whatever you like.

This drink is SO refreshing and absolutely delicious. Have one for me because my weekend is nothing but busy with work.

Cheers!
