Don’t you just love Girl Scout cookie season?!
One of my favorite Girl Scout cookies is the Thin Mint. I love eating Thin Mints on their own, but I also enjoy using them in fun, experimental recipes.
For this recipe, I used them as my inspiration for a chocolatey dessert martini, which combines chocolate vodka, chocolate milk liquor, and creme de menthe. The glass is drizzled with chocolate syrup and the rim is dipped in crushed Thin Mints. It’s so good! (more…)

My husband came up with this recipe for ginger margaritas and was kind enough to lend it out to feature on the blog. He’s so amazing!
They’re so delicious I don’t know if I can drink a regular margarita and enjoy it as much anymore. I love the accent of the ginger flavor and the homemade simple syrup element. (more…)

I love Chelsea Handler. I love her wit, spunk, and all around funny nature. So, when I wrote my first cookbook, Kitchenability 101, I really wanted to include a cocktail recipe in her honor.
The result is the recipe below, which I created while she was on a Belvedere vodka kick. It’s essentially a really tasty pomegranate martini recipe that I ever-so-fondly dubbed The Chelsea Handler.
It’s festive and sweet – the perfect libation for New Year’s Eve!
