Recipe + Vintage Glasses : Micheladas

 My grandpa in Mexico, had a tradition of a 3:00 "coochie coochie" time, a time for a drink and some snacks and lots of jokes. In honor of my gramps, I made some micheladas. These are not up to par with the ones we had in Mexico, but they are wonderful and refreshing on a warm summer day!

Ingredients:
Corona
a few splashes of Maggie sauce
2 dashes of Worcestershire sauce
2 key limes
tobasco
sea salt rim

Use a lime to rim the glass, then dip it in salt, start with about 2 limes worth of juice, a few squirts of Maggie and Worcestershire then add tobasco to taste. Finally, top off with corona. Cheers to you Papa Bu!

Drink Recipe + Good Friends: Margaritas!

My darling Twill just arrived home! I am so excited to have my bestie back in town, oh how I missed her sweetness. So in honor of the lovely lady, I threw a little cocktail party at the pad. Margaritas are my favorite, and Heather asked for Strawberry ones, so I decided to learn to make a truly great version on the rocks (no fancy appliances needed here!).

Ingredients:
Classic Lime:
2oz Tequila (100% blue agave, silver)
1oz Triple Sec (Cointreau is recommended)
1 oz fresh lime juice
4 strawberries muddled 
Sugar and cinnamon for the rim
Ice

*for classic lime, use a salted rim with a little ancho pepper
