What a different a year (and a day) makes ...

Last year, December 1, I was at @heinzfield cheering my boys on, in my alpaca poncho, with a beer in-hand. 🍺
This year, December 2 ... I’m cheering them on from my quarantine couch, in my pajamas, with a doctored-up toddy. 🥃

🍯🥃 Talk toddy to me ... 🥃🍋 Quarantine

🍯🥃 Talk toddy to me ... 🥃🍋
Quarantine log, day 4: feeling just ok, and I can’t stop watching cheesy holiday movies. Hot toddies have been my only comfort. I’ve started adding CBD to many of them. Neighbors and friends are taking great care of me ... my fridge is full of soup.

Drop movie recs and TV shows to binge and your favorite hot toddy riffs in the comments. 👇🏼

P.S. Remembered why I don’t ever set cocktail shoots up on the floor ... check out the last pic. 🐶

🌵💦 POST-WORKOUT ALTOS x WATERLOO RANCH WATERS, ANYONE? 💦🌵

Has anyone else eaten Thanksgiving leftovers for their last four meals, too? 🦃 After so much stuffing, I was stuffed. So after a much-needed workout today, I was craving a ranch water.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again … when you make a simpler cocktail, you have to use great ingredients. And @AltosTequila and @waterloosparkling make a delicious ranch water. (My little trick is to add just a pinch of sea salt. A little extra sodium helps you stay hydrated too, so there’s that.)

Waterloo also has some other flavors that make for a delicious flavored ranch water. (I love the blueberry!)

🍹 THE PERFECT THANKSGIVING WHISKEY COCKTAIL 🍹

I’m staying home for Thanksgiving this year. With everything going on, traveling to my family who live in an area with low cases seemed irresponsible. So I was delighted when my #quaranteam decided to do a very small Friendsgiving meal.

My amazing friends @BeautifulBooze and @littlelanemedia wrote a gorgeous cocktail book (DM for a link), and yesterday when I was tasked to bring a cocktail for Friendsgiving, I thumbed through the book and was excited to find a cocktail that sounded perfect. I made a couple small changes (switched out whiskey for apple brandy and included more bitters to help prime our bellies), and it ended up to be the perfect pre-dinner cocktail.

The Still Austin whiskey was the perfect spirit for this cocktail thanks to its warm notes that are perfect with a Thanksgiving meal (vanilla, nutmeg, cornbread, and a little cocoa). Even better, they donate to The Health Alliance for Austin Musicians that provides affordable healthcare for Austin musicians with sales from The Musician.

1.5 oz Still Austin The Musician Straight Bourbon Whiskey
1 oz dry vermouth
.75 oz lemon juice
.75 oz chai tea syrup (1 water : 1 sugar, add a tea bag for every cup of water)
Angostura bitters
grated nutmeg
lemon rind garnish

Huge thanks to @elisecordell and @mwalkerj for letting me destroy their kitchen making these beauties.

🥃 OCTOMORE 11 INSIDER’S GUIDE 🥃⠀
⠀
I really love a heavily-peated scotch … I know that it’s not for everyone, but I do love it. There’s nothing like a cool night on a porch, wrapped up in a blanket, enjoying a peaty dram.⠀
⠀
So, I was quite excited when I got the chance to try some of Octomore’s newest release in the Octomore 11 series, said to be the wold’s most heavily peated whiskey. 💨 (Octomore releases their new scotches in a series with serial numbers (if you will)—11.1, 11.2, etc. ... you can learn more in chapter three!)⠀
⠀
To help us appreciate the release to the utmost, they recruited some whiskey “experts" to create a guide, called The Octomore 11 Insider's Guide. Broken into six “chapters” (the first of which can be found on the link in my bio), it gives us guidance to appreciate the whisky with all our senses, learn about its origins, and even pair it with some food.⠀
⠀
“The Octomore 11⁣⁣” is made up of @whiskymonster, @whiskeyfellow, @thescotchgirl, @thescotchtress, @thewhiskeyjug, @scotch_trooper, @marvelatwhisky, @dram_dude, @barrelraised, @thecharredcask,⁣⁣ and Nathan of The Scotch Noob⁣.⠀
⠀
If you’re a whiskey lover, check out this guide. I’m no stranger to tasting (I happen to be a judge for the @jbc_awards 😏) and I never shy away from a chance to learn more about whiskey and how to properly taste and appreciate spirits! ⠀

🔥 READY FOR S’MORE CAMPING? 🔥⠀⠀
⠀⠀
I’m beyond excited to go camping next weekend … it’s the best way to get out of town and enjoy nature during these crazy times. And … it gives me a great excuse to spark up a bonfire and roast some marshmallows!⠀⠀
⠀⠀
@iamsarahmize and I toted along some of @shinerbeer’s S’mores Birthday Beer to West Texas when we ventured out there in June. And I’ll be snagging another six pack before my camping trip next weekend!⠀⠀

SCHWEPPES 1783 COCKT

SCHWEPPES 1783 COCKTAIL MIXERS MAKE HOLIDAY MYO BARS A SNAP⠀⠀⁣
⠀⠀⁣
#ad On a recent trip to @TomThumbTX, I finally found Schweppes's new, elevated cocktail mixers … just in time for the holidays!⠀⠀⁣
⠀⠀⁣
While I usually batch out a cocktail for my family before holiday dinners, I also like to put together a "make your own bar" setup so we can make our own cocktails, and @schweppesus 1783 will be the perfect addition to it this year. I like Schweppes 1783 because it is expertly refined and uniquely crafted.⠀⠀⁣
⠀⠀⁣
Flavors: Schweppes 1783 Sicilian Lemon Club Soda, Schweppes 1783 Tahitian Lime Ginger Beer, Schweppes 1783 Ginger Beer, and Schweppes 1783 Bitter Lemon Tonic (my personal favorite!) ⠀⠀⁣
⠀⠀⁣

Santa's sleigh ain't got nothin' on my ride ... 🛵💨⁣
⠀⠀⁣
⠀⠀⁣
@FoxtrotMarket has some of my favorite goodies, so this holiday season they'll be one of my go-to spots for gifting. Not only do they have my favorite gummy mixes (Predators vs. Prey FTW), delightful wine selections, and the most delicious candles, but they'll deliver them in under an hour.⁣
(And that delivery option is gonna come in clutch when you forget to get a hostess gift or a friend texts, "Hey, going to drop off your gift this afternoon!")

What’s everyone drinking this weekend? 🥃🍸🍹
