Dead Man’s Icy Hands
How to make a Dead Man's Icy Hand and Halloween Punch...
Coconut-Lime Lemonade
In a large glass filled with ice, combine good-quality lemonade with a teaspooon of cream of coconut (it needs to be at room temperature in order to liquefy), and a generous squeeze of fresh lime (optional: add 1.5 oz rum to each glass to transform this into a perfect summer cocktail hour beverage).
Lemonade Spritzers
Serve over ice, and garnish with fresh lime rounds, strawberry slices, or even watermelon wedges.
Cayman Islands Rum Punch
Like Mudslides, the Rum Punches in the Caymans are nothing short of spectacular. Even without alcohol - which is how I had 'em - they're just exactly what you want to be drinking on a hot day at the beach.
Raise Your Hand If You’d Like A Grownup Milkshake
Mudslides are pretty much the Caymans' mascot (well, those and Rum Punches). They're also grownup milkshakes, and so delicious.
Cupcake Vineyards Wine
Dad and I came across Cupcake Vineyards wine at the wine store a couple of weeks ago, while shopping for Mom's birthday dinner (click here to check out the Lemon-Chocolate Birthday Cake we made). We didn't buy it, because we were on the hunt for a white...but I think it just sounds spectacular.
Listen to the description of the 2009 Red Velvet (about $12/bottle): "It's reminiscent of a blackberry chocolate cupcake with a mocha coulis. Shows an incredible nose of chocolate, deep rich blackberries, red fruits and a creamy mocha finish that is unmistakable in its intensity and length."
In other words, I would like to fill a bathtub with the stuff and roll about in it for hours, please.
Has anyone tried Cupcake Vineyards? Is it as wonderful as it looks?
Boxed Wine = Not Necessarily Bad
I associate boxed wine with a summer I spent living in Australia with my then-boyfriend in what could best be described as a frat house with zero university affiliation, and thus zero reason to keep any semblance of order whatsoever.
