Read MoreWhat makes a smash, a smash? I like to think of a smash-style cocktail as the less fussy, more forgiving variation of a julep. It’s pretty open-ended and variable, as long as you include herbs, fruit, sugar, and some sort of base spirit.

Read MoreI’ll be real with y’all—this is the first time I’ve ever made limoncello! I know there are several methods and ways to make it, but I am pretty thrilled with how this turned out! It’s perfectly sweet, not bitter at all, and it definitely doesn’t have that unfortunate lemon cleaning product flavor.
Read MoreThe Banana Daiquiri is a classic staple in cocktail culture. It’s best known in its appearance in The Godfather Part II, when Fredo foolishly asked Michael how to translate “Banana Daiquiri” in Spanish. Michael’s quickly faded smile indicates how fed up he is with his childish older brother — his idiocracy on full display.
