Peach Berry White Wine Sangria

Welcome back to QCK! The end of summer heat wave is here! I'm trying to enjoy it because before we know it, it'll be too cold to even consider going outdoors. But I'm definitely not interested in turning on my oven or standing over a stove. So instead, I'm going to eat some leftovers, drink …

Blackberry Moscow Mule

Welcome back to QCK! Happy Friday! I have been completely unmotivated to cook or write all week, honestly I haven't even been hungry at all. Just tired. So I spent some time listening to my body instead of pushing it and it worked! I'm feeling better. So I'm back today with a new recipe for …

Blueberry Basil Gin + Tonic

Welcome back to QCK! Summer is coming to a close, sadly. That means there are very few days left to enjoy ice cold drinks on a patio, farmers markets, and fresh herbs, berries and stone fruit. In my opinion, the best way to savor the last month of summer is to enjoy all it has …

Mango Pineapple Smash

Welcome back to QCK! It's Memorial Day Weekend and we've been talking a lot about BBQ and how to throw the perfect BBQ, which has been so much fun. But no perfect BBQ is complete until you have the right cocktail, or mocktail if you chose. One of my favorites is this Mango Pineapple Smash. …

Jalepeño Honey Paloma

Welcome back to QCK! I'm so excited because next week we'll finally be getting into 80° weather here in MN! Usually, I'd love to spend the day on a patio with margaritas (I'm basic, judge me.) but since that's not a real possibility at the moment, I'll be making my own drinks and sitting in …
