quotes & cocktails

 *sigh* 

A good reminder this Wednesday.

The cocktails we want to highlight today are found here. They all have basil in them...we love the incorporation of fresh herbs, and other unique items, in cocktails. What is your favorite herb to add to a cocktail?

As it is our dad's birthday week, the cocktail for this installment of "quotes and cocktails" is his personal favorite: the simple, yet refreshing Beermosa. We enjoy having these out on the farm on a sunny day!

The cocktail today is a simple summer cocktail. Trader Joe's is now carrying Limoncello and while you can make Limoncello from scratch (recipe here), the one carried at Trader Joe's is an excellent and affordable option - as well as a quick and easy option for an impromptu dinner party.

Recipe  
(add items to a chilled glass in the order listed below)
Fresh squeezed grapefruit juice from 1/2 a grapefruit
1/4 cup Limoncello
1/2 a can of seltzer water
4 cubes of ice

We also suggest adding raspberries and mint!

We love the quotes that are currently printed on the coffee sleeves at Starbucks. Oprah certainly has some inspirational thoughts/quotes. And the cocktails for this week are...

cocktail 1 ** 2 ** 3 ** 4

And, as it is the month of June and Father's Day is just around the corner, our cocktails this week are cocktails every guy should know how to make (at least according to this).
