Cocktail Recipes

Cocktail Recipes for all your sipping pleasure.  Sipping on an ice-cold cocktail is a great way to relax.

Frozen cocktails are a big hit during the hot summer months.

My favorite are fruity frozen cocktail recipes to help keep the heat at bay.

Herbal Cocktails

If you want to be one of the cool kid's plant yourself an herbal cocktail garden.

If you live in a sunny state you can harvest fresh herbs all year long using the fresh herbs you have grown yourself.

Throw a garden party and serve an herbal cocktail to your friends.

Rum Cocktails

Rum cocktails are my favorite. Many of my favorite cocktails are made with Bacardi Rum.

Frozen Blue Hawaiian: The Blue Hawaiian is one of those fruity cocktails perfect for the summer months. I love a frozen Blue Hawaiian with all the flavors of a tropical cocktail like pineapple and coconut. A splash of Blue Curacao turns it a delightful blue color.

Coconut Mojito: I created the Coconut Mojito after enjoying one at Bahama Breeze during a girls night out. I wanted to be able to enjoy a tropical Coconut Mojito from the comforts of home. (Bahama Breezer Coconut Mojito copycat recipe)

Blueberry Mojito: Blueberries are available at different times of the year depending on where you are. Save a hand full and made a Blueberry Mojito.

Pom Cherry Mojito: The Pom Cherry Mojito is a twist on the traditional Mojito recipe in that it starts with POM pomegranate liqueur.
