  • It goes without saying it’s always #nationalcocktailday around here, but let’s not let that get in the way of celebrating today! This is one of my favorite cocktails I have ever mixed up, the Scandinavian Picnic, a feast for the eyes and palate. Caraway from the Aquavit, celery, green apple & cardamom are a killer flavor combo. The garnish doesn’t hurt either: celery curls, wisps of dill & fennel flowers balanced on an apple slice 🍏🌱🌼
  • These bebé carrots! 🥕🥕🥕 This gingery 24 Carrot cocktail I whipped up for @sugarandcloth is the perfect spring drink topped with the cutest tiny carrots. Because we all need baby carrots in our life — trust me, you do — I shared my online source for them over on my site along with the link to the recipe on #sugarandcloth #cocktailsandflowers
  • Happy first day of spring!! It’s by far my favorite time of year, from the sunny days with cool breezes, all the best produce at the market at once & of course all of the flowers in drinks, and sometimes I mean ALL of the flowers like this Flora & Juniper cocktail (and yes I deconstructed a rose and put it back together on the drink because it didn’t look quite how I wanted it to) 😂 Be sure to use #cocktailsandflowers when posting your floral tipples so I can see all the cocktail flower power 🍹🍸🌸🌻🌻💐🌷🌹🌺 #firstdayofspring
  • Although St. Patrick’s Day is pretty calm these days for me, I used to win all the Irish Car Bomb races back in the day, true story 😆🏆 If you prefer mixing up Irish cocktails at home for tomorrow’s celebrations, whip up this natural green Golden Matcha Sour. Earthy matcha, ripe 🍐, and edible gold literally make this Irish whiskey drink shine! ✨ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ✨GOLDEN MATCHA SOUR✨ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •2 oz Irish Whiskey, I used @egansirishwhiskey •2 oz pear juice •3/4 oz lemon juice •3/4 oz simple syrup •1 egg white •1 tsp matcha powder •optional spritz Absinthe, I used @stgeorgespirits •garnish: edible gold leaf, pear slices ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Add the first 6 ingredients into a shaker without ice and shake (also dry shaking) for 30 seconds or so to whip the whites. Add ice and shake for 12 seconds to chill. Strain into a coupe. Spritz Absinthe over the glass with an atomizer if using. Using a clean, dry paint brush, brush the edible gold leaf on to your glass. Garnish with skewer of pear slices.
  • What cocktails are you going to Sálinte with this St. Patrick’s Day?! I skip the green beer and prefer to mix up green cocktails at home like this Irish Hopper, an Irish Whiskey take on my guilty cocktail pleasure the minty, chocolatey Grasshopper. Recipe on my site ☘️🥃
  • A friendly PSA that it’s Martini Monday AND #misotheragdoll now has an account @miso.theragdoll! Follow along for lots of cuteness and shenanigans with the floof (I am already preparing myself for the day when he has more followers than me.) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In non-cat related news, this Rhubarb Aquavit Martini is *chefs kiss*. It’s a great savory martini option that offers a much different profile from your typical onion or olive. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ RHUBARB AQUAVIT MARTINI⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 2 1/2 oz rhubarb infused aquavit, I used @venusspirits⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 1/2 oz dry vermouth⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀lemon peel⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ garnish: rhubarb ribbon, fennel fronds, edible flower (I used cilantro flowers) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Chill a stemmed glass by adding ice to the glass. In a mixing glass with ice, add rhubarb aquavit and vermouth. Stir. Dump ice in the glass. Strain the cocktail into the coupe. Express lemon peel over the martini and discard. Garnish by with rhubarb ribbon, flower & fennel. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ RHUBARB INFUSED AQUAVIT 2 cups aquavit (or gin) 2 cups rhubarb, chopped ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Chop rhubarb into pieces and add with the aquavit or gin to a mason jar. Shake and let set in the fridge for up to two weeks. Test as you go. I left it for a whole two weeks and had lots of delicious rhubarb flavor and not much bitterness to it. Stain through a fine mesh strainer and store for up to 6 months in the fridge. #catsandcocktails #imbibegram #thirsty #cocktailsandflowers
