Looking back on Easter as a child, I remember how excited I was to dig through my Easter basket. Full of chocolate bunnies, malt ball Easter eggs, Peeps, golden coins, and my favorite Cadbury...

We’re celebrating Cinco de Mayo the best way we know how, with a classic margarita. Combining top shelf tequila, fresh squeezed lime juice and just a splash of orange juice our margarita recipe is the epitome of natural and refreshing. So grab your pals, break out the chips and guacamole (recipe HERE) and mariachi the night away. truly, MKR
I’ve always adored The Derby. It may be because it falls on my birthday. Or it may be because it’s a day that celebrates extra large hats, pastels, and dainty lace gloves. Or it may be because I get to sip a mint julep while celebrating my birthday and wearing an extra large hat and dainty lace gloves. Yep, thats it. And this year for The Derby, I bet big and created three different ways to enjoy this festive libation. The classic julep, a strawberry mint julep and a tangerine julep complete with fruit filled ice molds, (simply buy THESE and freeze the juice with a tad bit of puree the night before). So Loves grab your hat, pick your horse and happy Derby! truly, MKR
Here in Atlanta there’s nothing more symbolic of warmer weather than fresh Georgia peaches. And with the warm weather finally here I figured I needed to find a way to shake and stir my the States most symbolic fruit into a must have cocktail. Enter my Boozy Peach Lemonade. By combining the tartness of lemons with sweet Georgia peaches and spiked with a little infused vodka, well my Loves you now have the perfect warm weather, very Southern libation. Cheers! truly, MKR
2 ounces peach flavored vodka such as Absolut APeach
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup hot water
2 1/2 cups fresh squeezed lemon juice
1 cup fresh peach juice or puree
3/4 gallon cold water
thyme to garnish
Instructions
In a 1 gallon+ container, place sugar and hot water, and stir until sugar dissolves.
Add lemon juice, peach juice, and cold water, stir. To get 1 cup of fresh peach juice peal 5-8 peaches (dependent on size) and juice in juicer or Vitamix. For a puree simply peal, slice, and muddle well.
Add vodka, stir until well mixed.
Pour lemonade over glasses of ice, squeeze slice of lemon on top of each, and garnish with a sprig of thyme.
**If you are using a peach puree rather than peach juice don't add to entire mixture, just muddle well and add to each glass before pouring.**
