Amatriciana & Boulevardier


This is a really, really loose recipe off of a traditional Amatriciana pasta, which is one of my favorites, but using some of the ingredients I have an abundance of at home. The fattiness, richness, and spice that you get from this pasta dish really pairs SO well with a riffed Boulevardier.

Cantaloupe Bee's Knees

This is what you’re gonna wanna sip on when the weather pretends that it’s summer (but it’s really spring) and your AC isn’t pumping to its full capacity yet. It’s bright, a little sweet, and super refreshing (thanks to that fresh cantaloupe juice)!

Strawberry Shrub Mocktail

I love making shrubs for mocktails (or even cocktails!) because they’re full of flavor, acidity, and sooo versatile. Shrubs are crafted by blending water, fruit (occasionally complemented by other botanicals), sugar, and vinegar, resulting in a tangy syrup that infuses drinks with a lovely range of flavors and complexity.

Rum Martinez

A quick simple stirred cocktail always makes me take a sigh of relief. While I love rolling up my sleeves and getting creative with some complicated drinks, sometimes it’s nice to dial it back with something classic. I had a pretty nice bottle of Flor de Caña rum and wanted to put it good use, so made a cheeky lil Rum Martinez!

Mom's Garden

I call this one “mom’s garden,” because growing up she had the most amazing home grown cherry tomatoes and an absolute gorgeous raspberry bush! With all of this warm weather we’re getting, there’s nothing more nostalgic for me than picking fresh tomatoes or raspberries after a day of hanging outside in the sun.

Earl grey and mezcal is the combo you didn’t know you needed! Got the inspo for this at Altar Bar in Brooklyn, New York. It’s so so delicious and a super fun way to infuse some of your favorite spirits with your favorite teas.

Miso Martini

Y’all asked for savory cocktails and I promise this one delivered 😮‍💨 it’s salty and strong with a punch of umami. Definitely takes a little bit of prep work but if you’re into the weird stuff it may be worth it!

Watermelon Chipotle Margarita

You know we love a good margarita around here, but this one might be my favorite one yet! It’s got such a unique flavor from the smokey/spicy vibes from the chipotle tequila, the freshness from the watermelon juice, all ties together soo good with the warmness from the honey syrup!

Averna Sour

It’s time for a super yummy rum sour! I love using Flor de Caña rum in a sour-style cocktail because it’s aged in small white oak bourbon barrels (and sealed with plantain leaves), not to mention at the base of a volcano! This cocktail is tart, strong, and herbal – so delish.

Cucumber Sake Sour

This sour is so unbelievably refreshing and smooth, and a little lower in alcohol content than your traditional gin or whiskey sour because we’re using sake! Sake has some lovely, delicate flavors that work so well with the freshness of cucumber and citrus.

This one is from Difford’s Guide, because sometimes even I struggle to find uses for Suze — but this one absolutely hits. It’s a lovely balance between strong, bitter, and tart!
