cilantro-salted tomatillo green bloody marys | bittersweet seasons of change

vodka

I love the challenge of taking any vegetable in my garden – at any stage in its life cycle – and turning it into a cocktail. The abundant amount of sunny, 75-degree days kept me donning shorts, pouring the rosé, and harvesting all of the kale, chard, herbs, edible flowers, tomatoes, and tomatillos my garden […]

glow, baby, glow | cucumber, honeydew + kale shots from jules aron’s book, “zen and tonic”

spring

Chocolate and peanut butter. Doughnuts and coffee. Netflix and pajamas. Rosé and poolside sunning. Gin and juice. There’s a strong theme going on here: perfect pairings.

citrus salt-rimmed tangerine margaritas

winter

Lies, I’ll tell you! I’m looking outside my studio window at the peacefully falling snow. We were bracing ourselves here in Denver for well over a foot of snow, and all we received was a scant eight inches. I was actually looking forward to a serious dumping of the stuff. I want to be snowed […]
