Happy Hour

Ok, who's ready for the most invigorating

cocktail.ever. This cocktail just screams FRIYAY!

And who's happier about the Happiest Hour of the day...than us!

It has seriously been the hottest it has ever been in Tampa Bay.

Were talking super humid and miserably warm.

You sweat just opening your front door.

I wish I was kidding. But it's intense. And I want to dream of cooler temps...

however it's not close.  A Refreshing Cool Cocktail is just what the doctor ordered for

this Friday's Edition of Happy Hour!

One of my sweet girlfriends introduced me to this New Effen Cucumber Vodka.

It's a staple for your at home bar! It so versatile and so mixable.

Great for a Traditional Mule or Martini.

So this is my recipe for a quick easy and refreshing Cocktail:

Effen Cucumber Vodka

Limeaide

Fresh Cucumbers and Fresh Lime Squeezed

Over Ice

Garnish with 

Grab some friends and celebrate the weekend

with a fresh hand crafted cocktail! 

We work hard so lets play hard!

May today be the Fridayest Friday that ever Fridayed!!!

Happy Hour

Happy Friday Friends!

Back to School Edition!

Well...today was the 1st day that my 3 B's were

all in school for the first time! That's what I am talking about

for a Friday! What better way to kick "back to school" in with a Friday Happy Hour!

Who's ready? Let's take this Friday up a notch! 

I have a delicious bottle of red wine for you that's under $25.

It's terrific and great a value. Score. Meet Unanime Gran Vino Tinto from Argentina.

Not only do I think this Wine Rocks, but so does Wine Spectator with a lot of great accolades.

This wine will have you at hello with it's deep and lush rich tones. It's a blend of 

Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, and Cab Franc. This wine is dense and hefty 

with layers of flavors that are well balanced. Take a sip of this wine 

and you will have piles of blueberry, black plum, and cassis and on the finish 

you will taste espresso and dark chocolate. Yes please.

Unanime is smooth and inviting. Great for that Happy Hour as we 

celebrate the first days of school. You can find this Unanime at Total Wine Stores.

Crack open a bottle on this Friday and Enjoy your weekend.

Wishing all a wonderful school year!

Thanks for stopping by!

Cheers Friends!

Happy Hour

Happy Friday Friends!

Need something fun and easy for Memorial Day Weekend!

Oh. My. Goodness. These little Spiked Seltzers say it all!

This is my delicious and refreshing drink made easy...easier!

Jumping on the boat or going to the beach you gotta try these refreshing cocktails on the go.

The Spiked Seltzer is only 140 calories, 6% alcohol, and comes in delicious flavors

like Lime, Grapefruit, and Orange.

I would say it's healthy with simple ingredients.

Drink it out of a can or in a pretty glass with a Citrus Wedge....this is Happy Hour!

I like these for on the go little cocktails as is, 

but you can use the Spiked Seltzers with other Cocktail Recipes.

You can find these Spiked Seltzers at most Super Markets.

I found them recently at Publix on a BOGO.

Try all the Flavors!!!

Yippie!!!

Presentation is everything. So I grabbed a few cutie things

at the Target Dollar Spot to spice up my Happy Hour.

How adorable are these collections of Pineapples and Flamingos.

Happy Memorial Day My Friends!

Enjoy your Happy Hour!

Cheers!!!

Happy Hour

Happy Hour is the Best Hour!

So Welcome, and it's beginning to look like Margaritas from

a Nash Bash in Nashville, Tennessee. 

Margarita's just scream fun with friends.

And this time of the year it is that refreshing "go too" cocktail.

It's all about how they are made and with fresh ingredients.

All Margarita's are not equal and we all remember a time we 

had that not so good Margarita....it usually leaves a mark!

In a bad way! If it tastes like the Ocean..it's probably not good.

 I just got back from one of the best trips ever...

from one of my new favorite cities Nashville, Tennessee and had the pleasure

of being with some great friends who joined me in a Margarita Lunch

at one of Nash's Hot Spots Saint Anejo. 

Put it on your list. It's a must. If you crave good Mexican and fabulous Margarita's

jump into the Gulch in Nashville, Tennessee and check out this Bar/Restaurant

for not only an excellent atmosphere but good eats.

It's adorable and guaranteed a good time. 

Now to the best part.

MARGARITA'S!

Twist my arm with these AHH- Mazing Fresh Cocktails.

I am pretty sure we could all replicate these beauties at home by the pool too!

Saint Anejo uses quality 100% Blue Agave 2 oz Pours of Tequila.

I always recommend a quality Top Shelf Tequila.

 Never go bottom shelf with Tequila. Be Kind to your body!!

Patron, Don Julio, Tezon, and Herradura are all good for a Margarita.

There are 3 types of Tequila: Silver Blanco, Gold Reposado, and Anejo.

In this case go with a Silver Blanco. 

All Fresh Ingredients are what makes a great Margarita.

Fresh Limes, Fresh Oranges (if you prefer), Agave Necter, and Silver Tequila and 

we are bartending! Add a Splash of water. Bam!!!

Skip those Pre Made Mixes!

A fresh Margarita like this always invites you for another.

It's not your one and done kinda of flavor!

Saint Anejo has an amazing specialty selection of Margaritas including:

Ginger Rosemary, Cucumber Habernera Lime, and a Jalapeno Pineapple Cilantro.

Check out some of my favorite Margarita Glasses Here and Here for fun at Home.

So it's Fri-Yay Friends! Gather around a Pool or Table 

and make some fresh Margarita's. And if you are jazzed up enough to

hit a Bash in Nash check out Saint Anejo for a delicious Happy Hour!

Cheers Friends!

Have a great Happy Hour!!!
