Kumquat Martini
Our Kumquat Martini is a refreshingly sweet & sour cocktail. This 4-ingredient cocktail is so simple, yet stunning. Ripe kumquats are muddled in a cocktail shaker along with agave or simple syrup, then shaken with your favorite vodka. This icy cold libation is then poured into a sugar rimmed martini glass, and garnished with a few slices of fresh kumquats. What’s not to love about this deliciously fresh tasting cocktail?!
Blood Orange Mimosa
This Blood Orange Mimosa is delightfully refreshing, and the bright crimson color makes this cocktail a show stopper! Mimosas are not just for brunch, and this brilliant cocktail can definitely be served any time of day! Our Blood Orange Mimosa can easily be made ahead, which makes this the perfect drink for entertaining.
Easy Rum Lemonade
Our Easy Rum Lemonade is so refreshing and perfect for a warm summer day. This thirst quenching libation just hits the spot! Fresh lemonade, mixed with our favorite dark rum, and some fresh mint, makes this drink a bit more interesting than the usual rum lemonade. Try it with your favorite rum and enjoy!
Fresh Lime Margarita
This deliciously Fresh Lime Margarita comes together quickly with natural ingredients that will leave you feeling guilt free! Reposado tequila, fresh juices, and no refined sugar give this intoxicating cocktail a smooth and crisp finish.
