Honey Deuce Cocktail

August 24, 2023 by pamflo

Inspired by the signature cocktail served at the US Tennis Open, the Honey Deuce pays homage to the classic summery combination of vodka, lemonade and a splash of raspberry liqueur, making it a true delight for both casual fans and seasoned tennis enthusiasts. This cocktail is reminiscent of the iconic tennis ball, with delicate floating honeydew melon balls adorning the glass. Its sweet and tangy flavor profile, balanced with the gentle warmth of vodka, transforms every sip into a moment […]

Singapore Sling Cocktail

December 28, 2021 by pamflo

A classic tiki cocktail is not only colorful, fruity and lavishly garnished, but often has a folklore surrounding the recipe. For any experimenters looking to create a vacation in a glass, the Singapore Sling is an easy cocktail to impress your guests at a holiday party. The original drink was developed in the early 20th century at the Long Bar in Singapore’s Raffles Hotel and has since become the island’s national drink. Singapore Sling has a pink color from the […]

Blueberry Shrub

Blueberry Shrub

September 10, 2015 by pamflo

A shrub, isn’t that a tree? Indeed it is, but it’s also a “drinking” vinegar. A shrub dates back to Colonial America, when it was a very popular drink and a way to preserve fruit prior to the invention of refrigeration. A shrub is a syrup that combines fruit, sugar and vinegar, and can be added to sparkling water to make a homemade soda, or added to alcohol to make an easy cocktail. Berries, peaches, pineapple and plums work well. The sweetness can […]

Ingredients for Jar Salald

Salad in a Jar

April 23, 2015 by pamflo

Jarred salads are hardly a new idea, but certainly a smart one! Only your imagination will limit you. I like the combination of greens, seeds, fruit and grains. Consider a mixture of greens/herbs, grains, nuts, salsa, a variety of veggies and/or fruit, and a protein or two. Salad preparation is easy and can be made ahead. This makes a great “on the go” meal, just shake vigorously and dig in. The dressing works best as the bottom layer, the next […]
