Blood Orange Martini

July 16, 2020

Where our Gin lovers at? When we discovered Beef Eater’s brand new Blood Orange Gin in the Wine and Beyond July Flyer, we just COULD NOT wait to craft up a delicious cocktail with it!

We LOVE Blood Oranges, but sometimes they can be hard to find! (Try the Italian Grocery store- we usually have luck there!) But the best part about this cocktail is that IF you can’t find real Blood Oranges you can still enjoy that Bold citrus flavour with just a hint of sweetness by using this particular Gin!

These Martinis make for the Perfect, Refreshing Summer Beverage- whether you are sipping lakeside or in your backyard!

Heres What you Need:

  • 2 Oz Beefeater Blood Orange Gin
  • 1 Oz Cointreau
  • 2-3 Blood Oranges, juiced (sub regular oranges if you can’t find any!)
  • Handful of Ice
  • Thyme for Garnish

Method:

  1. Add all ingredients into cocktail mixing glass (a jug will work too!)
  2. Stir all ingredients until well combined
  3. Pour into glasses
  4. Garnish with Thyme and an Orange Wedge
  5. Cheers!

Spring is in the Air! I don’t know about you, bu Spring is in the Air! I don’t know about you, but I’m getting the urge to redecorate, AGAIN! Sorry, husband! 🤪

Whether it’s spring fever or cabin fever,  I’ve never spent more time fixing and switching up our space than in the past year. The folks at the home improvement stores practically know me by name! šŸ™ˆ

But what happens when you’ve found the pampas grass, end table or plant baby of your dreams and can’t get it to fit in your small car or the back of a taxi? 😩

@communauto_yeg to the rescue! They have several amazing SUV’s in their fleet boasting awesome trunk space. With car sharing service available for a few hours, or even a few days (in case you decide to take your DIY-ing to the next level), you can tackle any home Reno project you dare šŸ™Œ

Unsure how to get started with Communauto? Check out our blog post (link in bio) for lots of helpful information!

I know a Girl, she puts the COLOR inside of my wor I know a Girl, she puts the COLOR inside of my world ✨

...and that’s an understatement! To know Frankie is to Love her! Truly!

This little lady brings so much joy, laughter and sweetness to everything and everyone around her. Which is a very good thing - considering she prefers to rise before the sun, has a serious stubborn streak and is a tiny tornado always leaving a trail of crumbs in her wake! 🤪

In all seriousness, she is such a bright light in our lives, and has taught me more in the last three years than I ever thought possible. I am grateful to God everyday that He chose me to be her mama. šŸ¤ 

Happy T H I R D Birthday my love, may you never change!
