People always ask me what my favorite drink is. While what I drink is primarily dependent on my mood, my all-time favorite is an Arnold Palmer (half unsweetened iced tea and half lemonade 🍋). I'll never get tired of this drink. Sometimes, I'll play around with it and add mint to it or top it with a little club soda. So refreshing!

🥃 Bourbon Smash with fresh basil instead of mint-YES, PLEASE! Cheers to the weekend! 🍋🥂

I was surprised to see Long Island Iced Tea on this list. That is my early 20's throwback! "GO HARD OR GO HOME!" Right?! This is a good list with a lot of my favorites!

What's your favorite on this list?

The margarita was the best-selling cocktail of 2023, according to data from NielsenQ (NIQ). Other top sellers include the espresso martini, old fashioned and spritz.

💐During spring break, I challenged myself by trying a new cocktail each day inspired by various IG cocktail enthusiasts. Every single drink was delicious, and there were too many to choose from. I had so much fun making and tasting these drinks! I'm in love with hibiscus syrup.🌺

It was really hard to choose a favorite. It was a tie between the Hibiscus Mezcal Margarita and the Lemon Meringue Martini. On the last day, I created my version of a spicy hibiscus margarita, using elderflower liqueur. So yummy! The one drink that I didn't get to make was an Aperol Coconut Margarita, which sounds interesting. I was out of Aperol, though, so I'll try that one some other time. 🍋

A couple of highlights from my weekend: My youngest is officially a teenager and my son was excited to assist me at one of my classes. He asked me when the next one was! LUCKY ME!☘️🌈💚💚

🛒Shopping for your mixology class is such an IMPORTANT part of the entire mixology experience.

Maybe reward yourself after you shop while you are at it. 😉

👀Watch me shop and prep for my next class that I am having with a few of my neighbor friends. ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️

💝 Galentines with these lovely ladies was a blast. What a fun theme! I loved all of the pink and the pink cocktails were a hit!🍸

I laughed so hard with this fun group of friends last night. 😃 I love that the game of 🏀 brought them together.

After testing out my new recipe for the blood orange margarita this weekend, the elderflower liqueur modification was highly favored over the original orange liqueur. 🍊

Cheers to laughter and joy!🥂

💞 Another lovely couple's class turned into the perfect date night💞

Cheers to love and the gift of experience.🥂

I am deeply honored to be a part of the mix.😃

Last night was about the gift of experience and the perfect date night.

💕 Couple's classes are such a treat. They are intimate and so chill.

🫗🥃This lovely couple learned how to dry-shake egg whites; smoke an Old-Fashioned, and use an atonimer to coat their glass with absinthe for the Sazerac. These were all great cocktail selections that included fun techniques.

Cheers to date nights!🍾🥂💕

I've played around with other words (spirit-free and zero proof), but "mocktail" just feels more authentic. 🍹

How I learned to (almost) love the term that everyone hates.

Sunday 🏈 Mixology

This Fantasy Football league (a.k.a. Mrs. Roper's Regal Beagles) has been together for 20 years and they were so fun to mix with. They were a riot! The host came up with some creative names for the drinks.😆 I love the 🏈 theme.

Cheers to good times with friends!🥂

Cheers to the weekend!🥂

I'm crafting flavored syrups for a party tomorrow night while enjoying this delicious whiskey sour made with Early Times Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey- Bottled-In-Bond (just finished the bottle-new fave:).

Fresh lemon juice🍋
Agave Nectar
And Fee Foam (non-egg alternative)🥚
Minus the cherry garnish 🍒

I love egg whites - don't get me wrong. It's just more convenient and less to clean when using the Fee Foam.

Now bring on the SNOW!❄️☃️

Speaking of the gift of experience: I had such a wonderful experience at The Art of Cocktail Making Class at The Conche in Leesburg.

Josh, our mixologist, was wonderful and knowledgeable. The cocktails were all delicious.

We made:
French 75
Paper Plane
Black Manhattan

Snack:
Sweet n Sour Cauliflower
Garlic/Parm fries

The last drink was called Good Vibes, which Josh made for us, which was paired with a delicious dessert.

Good stuff! 👍🏽
