My latest go to cocktail is an easy mix, Crown Royal and  Cranberry. I’ve been on a cranberry kick lately, and I always have Crown Royal around, but I’ve never paired the two together. If you’re a fan of shots, you’re probably well aware of the ingredients in a Washington Apple shot: Crown Royal (whisky),  apple schnapps, and cranberry juice. I’m not a huge fan of shots, but when I ran out of Ginger Ale to go with my whisky, I looked to Crown Royal’s website and decided to try mixing in cranberry juice. To my delight, it’s a delicious mix.

Ice Wine Martini

A few weeks ago, I met some friends up at Vinotecca, a wine bar in Royal Oak, Michigan. After a bottle of Fizz Champagne (I highly recommend trying this), the bartender suggested the Ice Wine Martini. I ended up liking it so much that I bought a bottle of Ice Wine so that I could [...]

DeKuyper Burst Bar Shots from Jim Beam

In college, I would combine champagne with Red Bull in a shot glass and my friend and I would call them “Rachel and Megan shots.” Clever, I know, but that just goes to show you how non-creative I am when it comes to shots (or how much of a wuss I am). I had since [...]
