Happy Hour

Whether you are meeting friends by zoom, or face-to-face in the backyard, you don’t have to settle for less than satisfying snacks and drinks. Scroll for some of my fun bar creations and get the recipes for easy, make-ahead “shareable” bites.

Apple Pie Old Fashioned

Is this a cocktail that tastes like dessert, or a slice of apple pie that tastes like a cocktail? The answer to this riddle, of course, is yes. 🍎🥃

Figroni!

I’m celebrating Negroni Week at home, with an easy fig infusion that puts a fun twist on the classic Italian apertivo.

Fuzzy Navel Spritz 🥳

I’m celebrating my birthday with a trendy, not-so-sweet twist on the classic drink I enjoyed in my earliest “legal” days. Cheers!

Pumpkin Spice Espresso Martini

No espresso machine required for this fun, autumn-themed cocktail. It’s bold, delicious and coffee-forward; did I mention there’s no pumpkin? 😉

Cinnamon Espresso Negroni

It’s Negroni Week, and I’m twisting up a classic with coffee liqueur and my favorite fall spice. Cheers!

Lemon Cream Pie Cocktail

Pineapple-Coconut Margarita

A tropical twist on a classic for National Margarita Day, along with my personal tips for making a great cocktail at home.

Pomegranate-Amaretto Holiday Spritz

This pretty drink is bursting with seasonal flavors, and I have a few tips for making a no-alcohol version that makes it suitable for all your holiday guests!
