A fun way to present cocktails at a party is to serve them in a bottle. To make these Orangina sunrises, some of the Orangina is poured out of the bottle to create room for the rum, amaretto, and grenadine. Put the cocktails together before the party starts and fill a large cooler with the bottles.
Valentine's Day is an excellent excuse to experiment with chocolate cocktails. I'm especially interested in this recipe because it creates a cocktail that tastes like a brownie!
This drink has a rich, glossy color and a decadent, smooth taste.

During the holidays I was so busy that I didn't have time to experiment with different cocktail recipes. Instead, I found one that I absolutely loved and made it throughout the season. Actually I'm so obsessed, I'm still shaking it up!

Yesterday was the first day of fall, or autumnal equinox. This means it's just about time to put away the ice cream maker and pull out the crock-pot. If this is sad news to you, you may need a drink to help you cope.

Amaretto
A liqueur with the distinct flavor of almonds, though it's often made with apricot pit kernels. The original liqueur, Amaretto di Saronno, is from Saronno, Italy - although many American distilleries now produce their own amaretto. It is usually served straight, on the rocks, or mixed into a cocktail and is often an ingredient used to enhance baked goods or desserts (as seen in my recipe for [recipe|nid=111352|type=link]).
