Frozen Apricot Daiquiri

Frozen Apricot Daiquiri

I love farmers markets and big displays of fresh produce and it's one of the many reasons to love summer.  Don't get me wrong, there are plenty of bags of frozen fruit in my freezer.  Those are perfect for smoothies and frozen cocktails.  But they don't have the ability, while I'm wandering through the fruit stalls, to grab me with their fresh aroma and demand to be purchased.

Lychee Martini

Lychee Martini

Do you remember when the world was supposed to end?  It was around May of 2011 when the rapture was supposed to occur.  Since we're all still here, the folks who were predicting it were clearly a little off...and maybe even more than a little off, if you know what I mean.  And before you start thinking that I've gone a little off, I guess I should explain what all this has to do with lychee martinis.

Pineapple Mojito

Pineapple Mojito

Spring is quickly giving way to summer around here with temperatures moving into 80's.  Still not oppressively hot, though.  Perfect for beach days and picnics, street festivals and afternoons in the park.  And, of course, tall cool drinks on the porch.
