Hi Friends....how are we doing? How is working from home going? How is remote learning going?
We are getting through it all here...I am not sure about you but I have more hope now that I have heard the president has a plan.... a gradual plan but safe plan and we will slowly get back to normal...that is the hope I need to push me forward...the hope I was lacking over the last 5 weeks....so yes I am more hopeful now...still sad...mourning the joyful events that have been cancelled for my girls...but focusing more on the joy.
I thought I would put a fun post together because who of us doesn't need a little fun right now? My blogging friend Andrea started a YouTube channel called "The Yeti Bartender". She kills me but I love watching her and she always has great recipes to share.
She got me thinking of some cocktails I have recently "pinned" and Rob and I thought they would be fun to make and try during this quarantine...so sharing a few with you today. Please let me know if you try any of these...I would love feedback!
The first one will not be tried until we are "free" to get together again and I will be making this and serving it to my besties.....
Hippie Juice
Doesn't that sound like the perfect girlie drink? Fruity and refreshing and perfect for summer!
Next up
The Dirty Banana
This one sounds more like a dessert and oh so yummy...you can even make a "virgin" one for your kiddos and pour it into fancy glasses
Lastly, is Andrea's cocktail
The Peach Bellini Martini
I made these for Rob and myself on Friday night and they were absolute perfection! Perfect spring cocktail- refreshing and just strong enough. Side Note: If you can't find peaches or don't want to make your own puree, I found a totally easy hack. I bought organic canned peaches at Whole Foods, drained the liquid and threw them in the blender and they provided the perfect puree to rim the glass AND add to the cocktail FTW!
There ya have it...just a nice little distraction when you are looking for something different to help you decompress after a crazy quarantine week!
Mmm! Can't wait to hear how the pink drink turns out, it sounds so good!!!
