Summer Thyme Sangria Will Ease You Right Into the Weekend!
Refreshing Summer Thyme Sangria will ease you right into the weekend. I mean shoes off, feet up, summer breeze blowing in your hair. Are you with me? This light and fruity sipper is gentle enough for brunch. It’s perfect to share with friends. Pretty enough for the front porch yet begs for the backyard! Use your favorite fruits of the season with a bottle of nice crispy white wine. Adding a few other flavor enhancers like vodka, simple syrup, and a sprig or two of lemony thyme (or your favorite fresh herb) add complexity.

Cucumber Basil Martini
I ordered a Cucumber Basil Martini at the Mayan Kitchen restaurant in Chattanooga and knew instantly I’d have to recreate it at home.

Jalapeño & Watermelon Margarita
Jalapeño Watermelon Margarita. One of my friends posted pictures on facebook yesterday of the margaritas she and her significant other were enjoying at a local cantina. Robin had a sweet looking Watermelon Margarita and Tim had a fiery Jalapeño Margarita. Instantly I craved a margarita. A blended margarita.

The Classic Mojito {TGIF}
I think tonight is a great night for a Classic Mojito. I believe we’ve got a touch of Indian Summer breaking through what has been a crazy week of weather and my fresh mint is still thriving in it’s own private garden. I had my first Mojito several years ago while vacationing in Puerto Rico. Already a rum lover….I was quickly hooked. I’ve since made Keylime Mojitos, Strawberry Mojitos, and still my favorite The Classic Mojito.
