Wise Guy – Lime Sage Infused Vodka

May 18, 2012

A few weeks ago a long rectangular box arrived at my door step. A box large enough to hold say… a one liter bottle of a libation of sorts. Based on the box’s size and origin I immediately assumed it contained a very well packed bottle of that famous Texan award wining handmade vodka, Tito’s! [...]

Toblerone Cocktail

March 30, 2012

It’s hard to top the feeling of enjoyment and satisfaction you get when taking a bite of your favorite candy bar, and while I truly enjoy eating my calories, there are times when drinking them is just as enjoyable. Made without a drop of chocolate liqueur, yet tasting just like the popular Swiss chocolate Toblerone. [...]

Caramel Apple Bon Bon Martini

March 10, 2012

Sorry I left you dry these past two Fridays… I’m going to attempt to make up for the lack of libation recipes these past two Fridays with this caramel apple bon bon martini. It was inspired by some of the desserts I made for the Oscar inspired party I catered a couple of weekends ago, [...]

The Josie Mojito

February 24, 2012

The inspiration for this cocktail was simple and straightforward. It came in a small box in the form of an assortment of Routin 1883 Syrups. Add a bottle of Dragon Berry Rum a colleague gave me for Christmas and the general idea was born. Coming up with a name for it on the other hand, [...]

Double Stuf Oreo Martini

February 17, 2012

This wasn’t as easy an infusion as I expected it to be. I initially started by infusing regular Oreos, but after a week of “infusion time” I tasted my concoction and decided I wanted more of the “Stuf” flavor versus chocolate. So started over and decided to use Double Stuf Oreos instead. Sharing is cool! [...]

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Shooter

February 3, 2012

Time to confess… so, I’ve had this bottle of Torani Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough syrup tucked away on the left hand side of the top-most shelf of my pantry for some time now. It’s been sitting there a little longer than I care to admit. It’s partially hidden behind the constantly rotating boxes of cold [...]
