We made it. And by we made it I mean we – made it to the long weekend, we made it to warmer weather, and we made it to the weekend which marks the beginning of “white pants” season. Not like I follow those rules anyway. Does anyone follow the “no white pants after Labor Day or before Memorial Day” rule? I feel like with the right chunky knit or light scarf, white jeans totally work in early spring, but what do I know about fashion? I’m a FOOD gal!

Speaking of food, what goes better with food than a fun, bright and fizzy little cocktail? Um, nothing. Absolutely, positively, nothing is the correct answer.

It’s liberating sharing cocktail recipes on Miss Allie’s Kitch. I feel like I’m letting you glimpse at a part of my soul. My inner party girl that’s just DYING to have a conversation with you about YOUR favorite drinks, favorite places to travel, favorite places to grab a pair of white jeans (I hear Madewell is a hot spot).

Well, let’s pretend we’re making a cocktail together today. Chances are, we won’t have much time for crafting as we’re going to be focused on gabbing. I’ll grab a bottle of my new favorite (yes, it’s that amazing & versatile) Pomegranate Cocktail Mixer by Powell & Mahoney. If you’ve followed me for a bit, you know how much I love their cocktail mixers. I mean, simple & straightforward ingredients bottled for me to create delish boozy treats without breaking a sweat. Count me in.

We’re mixing the sweet pomegranate syrup in with floral elderberry liquor (another fave of mine!), squeezing in a bit of lemon for freshness and rounding it all out with a healthy splash of dry champagne.

Mason Jar Margarita

a party in a jar, baby. 

Classic Margarita Made in a Mason Jar

Mason Jar Margarita

Happy Cinco De Mayo, friends! Full disclosure – I cannot take full credit for this recipe. J and I were in the kitchen one night and he saw this clever little video on Facebook that screwed the bottom blade of a standard blender to a mason jar and then put that into the base of the blender to make a mason jar smoothie. I mean how clever, right! Less mess, easy prep time – what a life hack.

Mason Jar Marg

Well, as we were gawking at the video, we were powering through a bowl of guacamole with taco meat on the stove and we thought… let’s make margaritas. AND IT WORKED LIKE A CHARM. He’s the brains behind a lot of my cocktail recipes, and I couldn’t let you think that I took all the credit for this life changing masterpiece. Who’s ready for a fiesta??!!!

 

Let’s get to it!

WHAT YOU’LL NEED (measurements below):

Mason jar

Blender base and screw in blade

Tequila (whoop whoop)

Margarita mix

Lime juice

WHAT YOU’LL DO:

The night or at least two hours before you want to make your margarita, freeze your favorite margarita mix into an ice cube mold. When you’re ready to make your margaritas, take out the frozen margarita mix, the base of a blender, the screw on blender blade, a mason jar and all of your ingredients.

Making a Mason Jar Margarita

Add the frozen margarita mix, lime juice, tequila and liquid margarita mix into the mason jar. Screw on the blender blade*. Place the jar into the blender base and pulse until blended. Make sure you’re just pulsing in order to be a bit more gentle on the mason jar.

Remove the jar from the base, unscrew and you’re good to go! Cheers & Happy Cinco De Mayo!

Spicy Whiskey Lynchburg Limeade

a spicy, bright & exciting cocktail with a wee bit ‘o Irish magic 

Spicy Lynchburg Limeade

Before we slip (or sip) into today’s recipe I want to get one little, teeny, tiny detail straight…I am VERY Irish. So, St. Patrick’s Day is a big deal, and has become even more so since I met J.

Lynchburg Limeade

To put things into perspective for you, my father, a good Irishmen born into a good Irish family of a mere 12 children, still eats Lucky Charms (with the little, lucky Leprechaun) every Saturday morning before his favorite soccer team, Liverpool, plays. He may or may not have tried to persuade all of us to buy him plaid, golf knickers for Christmas one year. I kid you not (SORRY DAD!).  J’s family is so into St. Patty’s that his Mom preps corned beef and cabbage, Shepherd’s pie, and Irish soda bread the entire week before the holiday. It’s one of my favorite meals.

Now that we’ve got all of this straight, we’re going to dive into one of the more popular aspects of St. Patrick’s Day…THE COCKTAILS.

Hot Pepper Limeade

 

In my day, I may have spent a St. Patty’s or two perched on a bar stool, looking down into a neon green beverage, wondering “what in the world actually turned it that shade, and are my teeth going to be permanently stained green after 3 sips of this sugar laden sucker?”.

St. Patrick's Day Limeade

In recent years, I tend to stay away from artificial & sugar infused cocktails when I decide to indulge. I’ll also admit, as much as I love playing around in the kitchen, I’m not one to labor over crafting a beverage. I prefer to mix a few flavors together, pour over ice and go.  This tends to put me in a pickle when I want something fun & festive.

Limeade with Whiskey

 

Hot Pepper Cocktail

In this recipe, I’m using a Powell & Mahoney Craft Cocktail Mixer because I am absolutely in love with the simple & natural ingredients. If I WERE going to invest the time into creating a cocktail mixer, my creations would probably resemble their recipes, but THANKFULLY, they’ve done all of the work for me. We’ll actually be mixing their Jalapeño Margarita with Whiskey to make our own (and arguably more delicious) version of Lynchburg Limeade. Traditional Lynchburg Lemonade, mixes whiskey and lemonade but I thought it would be fun to give it an Irish Kiss.  Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Let’s get to it!

Jalapeno Limeade

 

WHAT YOU’LL NEED (measurements below):

Whiskey

Triple sec

Lime juice

Jalapeno slices

Powell & Mahoney Jalapeno Margarita Mix

Tonic water

Lime wedge (for garnish)

Ice

Lynchburg Limeade

WHAT YOU’LL DO:

Add whiskey, triple sec, lime juice, 2-3 jalapeno slices, and Powell & Mahoney Jalapeno Margarita Mix into a cocktail shaker. Be sure to muddle well, breaking up the jalapeno slices, releasing the heat from within, which gives you that little bit of extra spice. If you prefer, you can always add less or omit the jalapenos if you like less heat.

Limade with Whiskey & Spice

Add ice to cocktail shaker and shake vigorously until the cocktail is chilled. Fill a glass with ice, pour the limeade mixture into the glass and top with tonic water. Give it a good stir and add the lime wedge and a few jalapeno slices! Cheers!
