My goal with this cocktail creation was to come up with a drink recipe that would actually help “heal” a hangover. A little “hair-of-the-dog” with healing powers. Just to be clear, in no way am I saying that alcohol is healing. It's not. But I'm gonna drink it anyway, so I will healthy it up anyway I can. I go in phases. Sometimes I drink artisan cocktails. Sometimes I go for months and all I order is a classic dirty martini. Then there are wine times. Oh, and beer. The main reason I switch things up is because I tend to get headaches from alcohol. Sometimes they seem to be worse with wine and sometimes with cocktails. So I switch it up. Anyway, I started to think about how to fix this issue. I mean, I help people with elimination diets all of the time. By eliminating certain foods for a month or so I can figure out what’s causing problems. Hmmmm….. if this works with food, why not with alcohol…. and because I know that the likely culprit is a form of dehydration and inflammation, I'm trying to create cocktails with ingredients that will both hydrate and reduce inflammation. If nothing else it's a fun quest... Grapefruit helps detoxify the body — which is exactly what you need to do to get the excess alcohol out of your system. It is high in vitamin C and lycopene. Vitamin C will help keep away a cold and lycopene is one of the things that helps keep your body from producing tumors. Eating grapefruit really does cool your body off, so if you are feeling overheated, grab this fruit. It’s also good for the digestion, can lower cholesterol, and helps boost your immune system. Strawberries help get rid of excess alcohol in your body and they are good for your heart and they even help reduce plaque in your mouth. Limes help to regenerate fluids, so they are great to combat dehydration symptoms. They also contain a lot of vitamin C and they can actually help energize you. In Asian medicine, we use coconut to strengthen the body, reduce swelling, and stop bleeding. This margarita has some coconut water to help with hydration and to give you all of the amazing benefits of coconut. This fun recipe is linked in my bio.

Candy Limes!! This year for Cinco I needed a little extra something for my drink garnish. Here’s how to make them! Ingredients: •6 limes •¾ cup water •1 cup sugar Instructions: •Cut the limes into thin rounds. •Mix water and sugar in a sauce pan. •Bring to medium heat. When the sugar is dissolved, add the lime slices. •Simmer for 15 minutes, until the white pith looks translucent (thicker slices may take longer). •Place the lime slices on a non-stick baking sheet or foil. •Pour some extra syrup over each slice. •Let the limes sit for 1-2 days or use a dehydrator if your impatient like me!! Use for garnishing or a little treat! #cincodemayo #healthiercocktails #margarita #mangonada #tequila #easycoacktails #candylimes

Lighter Fair Gin & Tonic 2 ounces gin 3 ounces Fever Tree Grapefruit soda Mixer 1 tsp Top Hat Provisions Tonic Concentrate 1 tablespoon lavender syrup 6 Drops liquid stevia I absolutely love the delicate balance in this lighter (on the palate and the waistline) Gin and tonic. The grapefruit and lavender are essential flavors of summer. I also love using @tophatprovisions gin and tonic concentrate; it is unsweetened so you can add your own sweetener to taste, and in this case use stevia for a lower calorie cocktail. Shake all ingredients (except grapefruit soda) with ice, strain into glass with ice. Pour soda over the top. #healthiercocktails #stevia #cocktails #mixology #craftcocktails #girlcocktails #spirits #tophatprovisions #colorfulcocktails #originalcocktails #uniquecocktails #funcocktails #cocktailrecipes #alternativesweeteners #naturalsweeteners #healthylifestyle #slimcocktails #gincocktails #gincocktail #grapefruitcocktail #lavenderrecipes #pinkcocktail
Another Negroni Week Tribute. Negroni Verde Maybe my delve into this classic cocktail is all about color. After my “Violette Negroni” my next offering is this lovely herbal green variation. Negroni Verde 1 1/2 ounces gin 1 ounce Lillet Blanc 1/2 ounce Ver Liqueur Garnish with orange twist Add all ingredients to shaker or glass, fill with ice and gently stir. Strain into prepared glass with one large ice cube. For this cocktail I used the simply wonderful Coauthored Volume 2 Gin by Temple Distilling. This gin is an herbal palatal wonder!

Honoring The Kick Off Of Negroni Week! This colorful take adds some sweetness, as well as a floral essence while still maintaining the bitter base of a classic Negroni.

This is my first submission for the Home Bar Awards September challenge: “Drink Your Veggies” GARDEN VARIETY G & T 2 ounces Gin 3 Ounces Tonic 1 ounce fresh cucumber juice Fresh mint leaves Grapefruit wedge In a shaker, muddle mint leaves with a small amount of granulated sugar. Add fresh cucumber juice and ice and shake for a few seconds. Double strain through fine mesh strainer (to remove any pulp) into Collins glass with ice. Add gin and tonic. Express light spritz of fresh grapefruit over the top. Garnish with grapefruit and/or cucumber wheel and fresh mint. * you can make your own cucumber juice at home if you have a juicer. I do, but to save time I just went to my local juice shop and ordered straight cucumber juice. I am going to freeze the extra juice in cubes and save them for a later day. @homebarawards Gin: @bluespiritsdistilling Tonic: @buzbeeswelshtonicsnptsww #healthiercocktails #cocktails #mixology #craftcocktails #girlcocktails #spirits #spiritedcocktails #prettycocktails #colorfulcocktails #originalcocktails #uniquecocktails #funcocktails #cocktailrecipes #alternativesweeteners #naturalsweeteners #healthylifestyle #slimcocktails #greencocktail #summercocktail #ginandtonic #gincocktails #homebarawards
Muere Feliz (Die Happy) 1 ounce Reposado Tequila 1 ounce Dark Rum 3/4 ounce lime juice 1/2 ounce Campari 1/2 ounce Demerara Gum Syrup 1 1/2 ounces Fever Tree Grapefruit Soda Can’t decide between a Daiquiri and a margarita? How about both? While this creation is more of a marriage between a Siesta (my FAVORITE tequila based cocktail) and the Daiquiri, the margarita base remains the same. Yes the name is a little morbid, but this is how I felt when I tasted this little experiment! The tequila remains the dominant spirit in this cocktail, but it’s softened and sweetened by splitting the base between the tequila and the dark rum. Demerara gum syrup adds further sweetness and depth. I balanced out the added sweetness by increasing the lime juice from 1/2 ounce to 3/4. I hope you don’t die, but I hope this cocktail does indeed make you very happy. Now excuse me, this cocktail and I need some quality alone time… Add all ingredients (except grapefruit soda) to a shaker and shake with ice until chilled. Strain into a margarita glass with one large ice cube, pour soda over top and very gently stir once to integrate. #healthiercocktails #cocktails #mixology #craftcocktails #girlcocktails #spirits #spiritedcocktails #prettycocktails #colorfulcocktails #originalcocktails #uniquecocktails #funcocktails #cocktailrecipes #alternativesweeteners #naturalsweeteners #healthylifestyle #slimcocktails #pinkcocktail #tequila #liberandco #daiquiri #margarita Rum: Jonah’s Curse Tequila: Casamigas Demerara Gum Syrup: @liberandco
Trying to pack in these summer cocktails before summer is over!! I love different cultures and ethnic cuisines, so creating cocktails with ethnic flavors is a lot of fun.

Another light summer refresher, in the spirit of a spritz. shaking this cocktail with a candied jalapeño medallion adds just the perfect amount of a very light kick of spice, while still remaining subtle and not overpowering the other ingredients. Spicy Mango Refresher 2 ounces reposado tequila 2 ounces mango juice 1 ounce club soda 1/2 ounce agave syrup 3/4 ounces lime juice Fresh cilantro 1 candied jalapeño medallion In a shaker, muddle cilantro with agave syrup*. Add lime juice, tequila, and jalapeño medallion, shake with ice until chilled. Strain into glass packed with ice, pour mango juice and soda over the top.

Yuzu Basil Spritz 3 ounces Sparkling Wine 3 ounces Fever Tree Yuzu Lime Soda 1/2 ounce Yuzu Juice 1/2 ounce Yuzu Liqueur Basil leaves This light, refreshing summer spritz is perfect for a late summer afternoon.

Twilight Time 2 ounces Empress 1908 Gin 1/2 ounce maraschino cherry syrup 1/2 ounce lemon juice 1/4 ounce grenadine 1/4 ounce Top Hat Provisions Butterfly Truth Serum As an artist I am a lover of color. My home is filled with lots of art, and packed with color wall to wall. So it seems like a natural progression that I want to bring that love of color into cocktails, when applicable. This ode to twilight (the time of day) uses Empress 1908 indigo gin, and one of my favorite discoveries: Top Hat Provisions Truth Serum. A beautiful purple zero calorie (yet all natural!!!) mixer, which can add that punch of color to any cocktail without adding sugar, calories or changing the flavor profile. 1. First, In a separate glass, gently mix 1 ounce of gin, lemon juice and grenadine. Set aside. 2. In your serving glass, start with pouring your maraschino cherry syrup at the bottom of the glass. (I used the syrup from a jar of Great Value cocktail cherries. Look for the one with no added dyes, and no corn syrup). 3. Next add crushed ice. 4. Gently pour your previously mixed gin, lemon and grenadine as your next layer. 5. Third layer, gently pour 1 ounce of straight Empress 1908 Gin. 6. Lastly, pour Truth Serum over the top. Voila! Garnish with purple flower.

Dizzy Dragon 1 ounce White Rum 1 ounce ROKU Gin 1 ounce Coconut water 1/2 ounce dragon fruit syrup 1.5 ounces Dragonfruit Purée (frozen) In a glass, place dragon fruit purée (slightly thawed so it’s slushy), add dragonfruit syrup over top, (I used Monin brand). Stack with crushed ice. Pour gin, white rum and coconut water over ice. Garnish and serve. I like the balance of a split base cocktail in this case, using white rum and a Japanese Gin. Neither overpowers the dragonfruit. I found no need to add an acid as the dragon fruit contains enough natural citric acid to balance the cocktail. If you can’t find dragon fruit syrup, a simple syrup or stevia simple syrup works just fine. #healthiercocktails #stevia #cocktails #mixology #craftcocktails #girlcocktails #spirits #spiritedcocktails #prettycocktails #colorfulcocktails #originalcocktails #uniquecocktails #funcocktails #cocktailrecipes #alternativesweeteners #naturalsweeteners #healthylifestyle #slimcocktails #tropicalcocktails #dragonfruit #pitaya #pitayacocktail #pitayadrink #dragonfruitcocktail #japanesecocktail #gincocktail #pinkcocktail #purplecocktail
Soak up the last few weeks of summer by the pool with a stevia-sweetened cocktail.

my favorite tequila cocktail by far is called a siesta. A classic siesta uses simple syrup and grapefruit juice. I have lowered the calories and sugar in the version that I make myself at home by substituting liquid Stevia, and fever tree grapefruit soda mixer. it tastes fantastic and you definitely don’t miss the sugar. I enjoy using both a reposado and a Blanco tequila together in this cocktail. Ligero Siesta (My ideal version of a Siesta) 1 ounce tequila blanco 1 ounce tequila reposado ½ ounce Campari ½ ounce lime juice 5 drops unflavored liquid stevia 2 ounces Fever Tree Grapefruit Mixer put all ingredients (except the grapefruit soda) in shaker with ice and shake until chilled. Strain into margarita glass with large ice cube in the center. Slowly pour grapefruit soda over the top. @fevertree_usa #healthiercocktails #stevia #cocktails #mixology #craftcocktails #girlcocktails #spirits #spiritedcocktails #prettycocktails #colorfulcocktails #originalcocktails #uniquecocktails #funcocktails #cocktailrecipes #alternativesweeteners #naturalsweeteners #healthylifestyle #slimcocktails #tequila #tequilacocktails #siesta #siestacocktail #tacotuesday #tacotuesdaycocktails #lowsugarcocktails

Japanese Whisky Sour 1 1/2 ounces Japanese whisky 1 ounce Yuzu liqueur 3/4 ounce Yuzu juice 3/4 ounce simple syrup (or stevia simple syrup, recipe in comments). Shake all ingredients with ice, strain into chilled glass tumbler with whisky ice ball. I personally love this derivative of the classic whisky sour. It is a little lighter and a little sweeter; a strong yet delicate flavor profile is created here with the swap of a traditional bourbon for Japanese whisky, and Yuzu for lemon juice. I Also reduced the base spirit by half an ounce to add a Yuzu liqueur. I used Suntory Japanese Whisky, which is a light sweet whisky with delicate honey and floral notes. Suntory is a light and cheerful whisky that is far less forceful than a traditional bourbon. It is also a very affordable Japanese whisky as many can get quite pricey. Calling this a whisky sour light might be appropriate, and it is nothing less than delightful libation. *the background is a painting I did of Japanese Yuzu, appropriate for this creation. #healthiercocktails #stevia #cocktails #mixology #craftcocktails #girlcocktails #spirits #spiritedcocktails #prettycocktails #colorfulcocktails #originalcocktails #uniquecocktails #funcocktails #cocktailrecipes #alternativesweeteners #naturalsweeteners #healthylifestyle #slimcocktails #japanesewhisky #yuzucocktail #japanesecocktail #whiskysour #whiskylover #whiskycocktail
It is late summer, therefore state fair season. This sweet but oh so sour little cocktail is an approachable state-fair riff on a classic Jack Rose cocktail. For the acid, rather than choosing a lemon or lime I went for a split of both for the sake of balance (and not choosing sides when it came to citrus.) There is a lot of Apple to be had here with using a split base between Apple brandy and candied Apple rum. This cocktail is bright, tangy, sweet and a low-heat. The perfect end to a day at the fair! Candied Apple Pucker 1 ounce laird’s apple brandy 1 ounce Largo Candied Apple White Rum 3/4 ounce grenadine 3/4 ounce split lime/lemon juice Shake all ingredients in a cocktail shaker until chilled, stain into chilled coup glass.

I wanted to create a Scottish cocktail not only using Scotch whisky, but incorporating some flavors of a Scottish meadow. This is a boozy cocktail, but also very approachable and softened by the added herbal infusions. Clan-Destined 1 ounce Scotch Whisky 1/2 ounce Cognac 1/2 ounce lemon juice 1/2 ounce simple syrup (or stevia simple syrup) 1 dash lavender bitters 1 sprig fresh rosemary Basil leaf Sage leaf 1/4 tsp granulated sugar (for muddling) Put simple syrup and granulated sugar in a cocktail shaker, add rosemary, sage and basil and gently muddle. Add remaining ingredients and shake with ice until chilled. Double strain into chilled coup glass.

“Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world…” I’m sure at this point in the world of cocktails just about every name has been taken and every idea has been done. We can only be as creative and original as we can in our scope of what we know and what we are aware of. That said, what a name for a gin cocktail featuring a classic gin?! I used Plymouth for this cocktail; a classic juniper balanced gin. Casablanca. The name invokes not only movie quotes, but images of open markets, colorful tapestries and spices. Saffron and cardamom are used in this cocktail to invoke the flavors of a middle eastern market. Saffron strands make this one a pricey cocktail, but the infusion of flavor and color are worth it. This is a heavy bold cocktail for sure! This is one of my very favorite creations, I hope you enjoy it too. Play It Again Sam 2 ounces classic-style gin 1/4 ounce cardamom syrup 1/4 ounce Simple syrup (or stevia simple syrup) 1/2 ounce lemon juice 4-5 strands saffron 4 drops Angostura bitters Mint leaves Prep: 1 day prior to (or morning of) cocktail, pre-measure gin and infuse with saffron strands. In a shaker, start with cardamom syrup and simple syrup and mint leaves. Gently muddle mint. Add gin (with saffron strands), and all additional ingredients. Shake with ice until chilled. Double strain into chilled coupe glass.

I absolutely love Luna Moths! I love their slightly magical celestial look, and their luminous green wings. The name of my art business is actually called “Farfalla De La Luna” (butterfly of the moon). All that said, I thought it would be fun to make a green colored cocktail inspired by my favorite moth, milky wings and all. In this recipe I actually used a citric acid solution in lieu of lemon or lime juice. One thing that always bothers my brain with cocktails is the limitations of using only lemon or lime as they each have their own flavor profiles and can easily overwhelm a cocktail. I have had way too many cocktails at a restaurant that taste (to me) too much like lemonade. I looked into how to use citric acid in a cocktail and I’m glad I did, because you get the acid balance without changing the flavor profiles of the cocktail that you are trying to bring forward. (Solution recipe in comments). What worlds can you create if the flavors of lemon and lime do not factor in!? Luna Moth 2 ounces gin 1/4 ounce pistachio syrup 1/4 ounce simple syrup (or stevia simple syrup) 1/3 ounce citric acid solution 2 dashes Absinthe Mint leaves Egg white Put the pistachio syrup and simple syrup in a shaker, add mint leaves and very gently muddle. Add acid solution, gin, absinthe and egg white. Dry shake minimum of 30 seconds, add ice and additionally shake until chilled. Double strain into coupe glass.

A feminine twist on a classic Charlie Chaplin cocktail. Here a contemporary style gin replaces the sloe gin in the original recipe. Sloe gin is much sweeter than classic and contemporary gins, so the acid in this recipe is reduced and a small amount of sweetener added. Lemon replaces lime as the acid to let the gin shine through, and also to let the spritz of absinthe balance the cocktail. (You will need an atomizer). And what is a feminine cocktail without lace? Egg white adds a pretty froth and a nice texture. Sarah Bernhardt 1 oz. Gin 1 oz. Apricot Brandy 3/4 oz. Fresh Lemon Juice 1/4 ounce simple syrup (or stevia simple syrup, recipe in comments) 1 egg white Spritz absinthe Lightly Spritz the inside of a chilled coupe or martini glass with absinthe.

Where has all the rum gone??!!! Apparently into this Caribbean version of a White Russian!! A little taste of the Islands is what we are after in this rum based riff on the classic cocktail. Dark rum replaces the base spirit of vodka. A coffee liqueur or Kahlua works in this recipe. I also used a blonde coconut sugar simple syrup (recipe in comments.) Barbados Brew 1 1/2 ounce dark rum 1 1/2 ounce coffee liqueur 1/2 ounce coconut sugar Simple syrup 3/4 ounce coconut milk (full fat, canned). Pour ingredients into ice filled tumbler and stir, pour cream over top.

This is a fun cowboy themed riff on a classic white Russian. Black coffee liqueur replaces Kahlúa, and bourbon stands in the place of vodka. If you can find crown bourbon barrel aged maple syrup perfect! But regular maple syrup also works. This one packs a nice kick! Saddling up immediately afterward not recommended. 🤠 White Hat 1 1/2 ounces bourbon 1 1/2 ounces coffee liqueur 1/4 ounce bourbon maple syrup 3/4 ounce heavy cream In a shaker dry shake the bourbon, coffee liqueur and maple syrup, this is to breakdown the maple syrup and incorporate it into the drink.

This cocktail is a riff on a classic: Between The Sheets. The original is a Pre-Prohibition Classic, and a divergent of a Sidecar; it is a very boozy sipper cocktail, best enjoyed in a tumbler with a large whiskey ice ball for maximum chilling and minimal dilution. This fun little riff adds some spice to the game with cardamom syrup and Angustora Bitters. It is important to stay just shy of 1/2 an ounce of cardamom syrup as the sweetness can throw the cocktail out of balance. Under The Covers 3/4 ounce Xo Brandy 3/4 ounce Elijah Craig Bourbon 1/2 ounce Cointreau Just shy of a 1/2 ounce cardamom syrup 1/2 ounce lemon juice 4 drops Angostura bitters Shake all ingredients with ice, strain into chilled tumbler glass with a couple large ice cubes or whisky ball ice cube.

One thing you may quickly learn about me is that of all the spirits, I am definitely a gin lover. Some people when they hear the word “gin” have a knee-jerk reaction and comment “ it’s like drinking a tree, it was awful!“ Which, sounds like my first reaction to trying red wine; “battery acid!”, lol. But, there is an array of nuance to the world of gin! (That is an understatement.) To be defined as gin the spirit must always contain juniper berries, but the balance and botanicals from there on in are up to the distillery, which is why we have a delightful upsurge of contemporary style gins. I created this cocktail specifically to showcase (and not bury) a well-balanced contemporary gin, and more specifically the Blue Spirit Wind #4. It is a riff on a classic pink lady. Enjoy! Lady of the Lake 1.5 oz. Blue Spirits wind #4 Gin 1/2 ounce lavender vodka 2 dashes lavender syrup 1/2 oz. Fresh Lemon Juice 1/4 ounce simple syrup, or (1/4 ounce stevia simple syrup)* recipe in comments 1/4 ounce blue curaçao 1 Egg White (note on using egg white in comments) Dry Shake all ingredients minimum of 30 seconds. add ice and additionally shake until chilled. Double strain into a chilled Coupe or chilled martini glass. Glassware: @deathandcompany Gin: @bluespiritsdistilling Vodka: @heritagedistilling Syrup: @monin_usa Liqueur: Kuyper Blue Curaçao One pattern you may also find in my recipes is that I try and lower the calories and sugar content of cocktails when possible. I will often substitute lower calorie mixers like Zevia, Fever Tree or Buzbee’s. You will also often see me use a Stevia based simple syrup rather than a sugar based one. You CAN enjoy a fancy cocktail without all the fancy calories attached!! #healthiercocktails #stevia #cocktails #mixology #craftcocktails #girlcocktails #spirits #spiritedcocktails #prettycocktails #colorfulcocktails #originalcocktails #uniquecocktails #funcocktails #cocktailrecipes #alternativesweeteners #naturalsweeteners #healthylifestyle #slimcocktails #gincocktails #lavendercocktails #ladycocktails #floralcocktails #bluecocktails
So here’s what all the buzz is about this week, (yes sorry, things are getting a little punny honey…) My interest in Prohibition Cocktails continues; this is a riff on The Bees Knees. Using manuka honey as your honey in the simple syrup adds a deeper richer flavor to the cocktail. The addition of a honey liqueur adds a slight complexity, as well as substituting 1/2 an ounce of the base spirit from the original recipe which calls for 2 ounces, and using 1/2 an ounce of a liqueur lowers the proof of the drink slightly, the result being (cough, excuse me) slightly less buzz…. 🐝 Bee-Attitude * 1/2 oz manuka honey simple syrup – (method below in comments) * 1 1/2 ounces Citrus-Forward Gin * 1/2 ounce Honey Liqueur * 1/2 oz freshly squeezed lemon juice * 2 drops ginger juice Put all ingredients in cocktail shaker and shake until chilled.

Hello, and welcome to the Dilettante Mixologist!! Although this is my first post on this platform, this is not my first creation nor will it be my last. Follow my page for original creations and lower sugar cocktails. Below Deck is a fun riff on some classic rum and citrus cocktails. Using a manuka honey syrup adds depth and richness to a classic simple syrup and marries well with a dark rum. Your classic lemon/lime juice is replaced here by using half key lime juice. Key lime packs a little more punch than regular lime, and could easily overwhelm the cocktail, so a half key lime half lemon acid is used. A 1/2 ounce of the base spirit (assuming a 2 ounce spirit is used) is replaced here by using a 1/2 ounce of a liqueur, in this case honey. Please enjoy this perfectly balanced sweet and sour cocktail. I look forward to sharing many more creations in the days to come. I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship. Below Deck 1 1/2 ounces dark Rum 1/2 ounce honey liqueur 1/4 ounc lemon juice 1/4 key lime juice 1 ounce manuka honey simple syrup *(recipe in comments) 4 drops orange bitters Put all ingredients in shaker and shake with ice until chilled. Strain into tumbler filled with ice. Garnish with lime wheel.

It adds a vibrant essence and can take a cocktail to a whole nother level without the addition of sugary liqueurs. It makes a really nice afternoon sipper too 😉. Check out the recipe below. .
