She’s alive! It’s been a solid 4 months since my last post, oooooooops!

One day I’ll be good at this blogging thing…but for now ya girl is busy being a sugar mama (I love you honey!) and spending all my free time not on the internet ;)

So let’s get right to it! Here is the cocktail that I served up at my family’s Thanksgiving dinner. Enjoy!

1 ounce spiced apple cider (Trader Joe’s has the best, duh)
2 ounces bourbon
.5 ounce amaretto
splash of orange liqueur
splash of orange juice

Optional garnishes:
fresh oranges, sliced thin
cinnamon and sugar
fresh rosemary sprigs
fresh cranberries
cinnamon sticks

1. Place a small pile of cinnamon and sugar on a plate. Dredge one side of an orange slice in the cinnamon sugar mixture.
2. In a medium skillet over high heat, place an orange sugar side down and heat for 1-2 minutes until crystallized. Let cool for about 10 minutes- they will harden up!

3. Pour apple cider-orange juice ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice and shake, shake, shake!
4. Serve with a couple ice cubes, Rosemary sprig, a few cranberries, cinnamon stick and orange sugar side up!

I hope everyone had a HAPPY THANKSGIVING! Hopefully, you’ll see me on here again soon :)
