HAWAIIAN MULES + A RELAXED GIRLS NIGHT

Saturday night I hosted a little girls night at my house.  Really hoping this will become at least a monthly thing!  It's so fun to entertain and experiment with crafting different cocktails.  Having simple snacks like a cheese plate, a "featured" cocktail, and some fresh flowers really brings everything together with minimal effort.  Relaxed, simple, and fun are always my goals when having anyone over.  We've all been into mules lately so we let the Hawaiian mules be the focus of this gathering.  

To make: 

Approx. 1/2 cup of pineapple vodka 

Half a can of ginger beer (we like goslings brand)

Splash of pineapple juice 

Squeeze of fresh lime 

Garnish with fresh pineapple, serve, and enjoy!

LETS DRINK : BLUEBERRY MULE COCKTAILS

It's Wednesday, so if your weeks been anything like mine you might be in need a mid-week cocktail.  I have to give my friends at The Kissing Tree Vintage (my #businessandbooze buddies) mad props for taking this drink to another level!  

Disclaimer : if you already like Moscow Mules as is, you may become addicted.  Consider yourselves warned.

Here is what you need to craft this delicious drink:

1/4 cup of vodka

ginger beer (about half of a can)

2 tbsp of blueberry syrup 

A squeeze of fresh lime juice and a slice for garnish

*this quantity is based on one drink, so if you're wanting to get wild maybe add a little more vodka. 

haha.

To make the blueberry syrup:

Bring 1 1/2 cups of water to a boil.  Add 1 cup of blueberries, reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes.  Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sleeve. Add 2 to 4 tbsp of sugar to desired sweetness.  (this amount will last you for plenty of drinks!) 

CHEERS!
