Salty Saketini

December 21, 2016 | 193 Comments

Looking to jazz up your Christmas cocktail, but not ready for the hard stuff? I’ve got the perfect savory drink for you – the Salty Saketini.

After a recent visit to Japan, I became close friends with rice wine… more commonly known as sake. My whole drinking life I thought I despised this wine simply because of the way I was drinking it. You see, sake is meant to be enjoyed in it’s most pure state… not dumped in a jug of beer!

I also learned that it’s best enjoyed cold, ice cold.

PLUS – there’s some good news when it comes to sake. When consumed in moderation, sake is said to help moisturize your skin, prevent high blood pressure and reduce the risk of cancer.

So roll-up your sleeves and break out that cocktail shaker. You’re ready for your next detox-retox cocktail.

What is Detox-Retox?

May 10, 2016 | 1 Comment

Let’s go back to this idea of “balance”. Detox-Retox is my way of adding some healthful elements to your favorite party cocktails. Why not add a little green juice to your vodka? Hydrate while you dehydrate. I can’t promise that it will save you from popping a few advils the next morning, but I can tell you 21-and-overs that you’ll enjoy these drinks. So detox while you retox. It’s the best oxymoron ever.
