Bahamian Sky Juice

Filed Under > Entertaining

bahamian sky juice

A few weeks ago I hoped on a flight to soak up the sun and sip down some Bahamian Sky Juice at Atlantis, Paradise Island.  Sky Juice, in my humble opinion, is a local treasure.  A mixture of sweet milk, coconut water, and a little ginny ginny gin over ice…well it doesn’t get more refreshing than that.  So whether you’re state side or on island time I promise this is a cocktail you’ll adore!  truly, MKR

Jose Cuervo History In A Bottle: The Pineapple Margarita

Filed Under > Cocktail Hour

pineapple margarita

When the good people at Jose Cuervo asked me to take part in celebrating 219 years with their History in a Bottle Campaign I jumped at the opportunity.  I mean who am I to say no to the good folks who invented the margarita?  Created in 1795 with agave harvested from volcanic soil Jose Cuervo has a rich, and very fascinating history.  A history you can experience yourself through watching the video below or downloading their augmented reality app.  I of course toasted Jose Cuervo in true WOM fashion by mixing up a pineapple margarita with their Tradicional Silver Tequila.  A margarita I guarantee you’ll be sipping on for Jose’s next 200+ years.  Cheers!  truly, MKR

 WOM Petite treat stand, on SALE!  ||  Wilton rainbow jimmies  ||  Wilton flower cookie cutters

Growing up my parents used to treat me to the most amazing sprinkle sugar cookies from Hamilton Pastries, and ever since I have been a lover (like no joke serious lover) of sugar cookies.  So when Wilton sent me a jar of their rainbow jimmies I thought immediately of those cookies I adored as a child and using my families sugar cookie recipe and a whole lot of festive sprinkles I was able to whip up a batch that was as good as I remembered.  truly, MKR
