When I am craving a green juice, but I don’t want to pull out my juicer, I make this Green Blender Juice. It is easy to make and requires less clean up than my juicer.
Nothing says fall like pumpkin spice, and enjoying these flavors in a warm drink is a great way to embrace the cooler temperatures of the season. This pumpkin spice chai latte is easy to make and has healthier ingredients than one you would buy at your local coffee shop. It is made with real pumpkin and sweetened with pure maple syrup.
Adding a fruit syrup or liqueur is a fun way to dress up a glass of Prosecco or other sparkling wine. In this recipe I make a blackberry and sage syrup and sweeten it with honey.
This refreshing citrus cocktail was created while we were on vacation with friends on Oak Island in Lake of the Woods. This remote island is accessed by boat from a small town in northern Minnesota. Before we crossed the lake to our friends’ cabin, we gathered supplies at the neighborhood grocery store, grabbing an assortment of citrus fruits to use with a small citrus juicer.
Growing up we took summer vacations at a lake in the Midwest with my mother’s extended family. One of the relatives would make different batches of special cocktails in the evenings for the adults in the group.
Pomegranate Ginger Fizz is a festive cocktail that’s fun to serve during the holidays. The pomegranate juice gives it a pretty color and adds a nice dose of antioxidants, too. The honey ginger syrup provides just the right amount of sweetness with a mild ginger flavor.
Bone Broth is simple to make and can do amazing things for your body. It is helpful in healing and restoring gut health, protecting joints, supporting the immune system and boosting detoxification. It has also been shown to assist with sleep and improve skin and hair health.
I really enjoy a good margarita. Drinking one transports me to a beach and puts me in vacation mode. In the summer, it is nice to take advantage of the seasonal options and use fresh watermelon for a twist on this classic cocktail.
This lemonade is so simple to make. The recipe uses the whole lemon, peel included, so no juicing is required. The essential oils in the peel not only add great flavor, but also help to boost immunity, aid digestion, and neutralize free radicals. The lemonade is sweetened with a honey simple syrup, so no refined sugars, artificial colorings or flavorings. It is wonderful on its own or you can add vodka for a refreshing summer cocktail. Enjoy!
