Welcome to my little world- I am thrilled that you are here. My most sincere hope is that this little blog is a source of laughter, inspiration and some seriously fabulous food (even if it is vegan!). Is it possible to maintain a vegetarian lifestyle below the Mason Dixon line? Come along with me and find out as I pound the pavement, travel and eat my way through life. Cheers!

Let's Have a Drink- Derby Cooler


With only a little over a week until the 136th running of the Kentucky Derby, it seems only fit to let the festivities begin online. You can find my recipe for a mint julep here but if you are looking for something a little different, why not try a Derby Cooler? This refreshing drink is a bit easier to drink than a julep but equally delicious.

2 ounces Bourbon
1 ounce light rum
2 ounces freshly squeezed orange juice
1 ounce freshly squeezed lemon juice
Dash of grenadine
Garnish: Star fruit or orange wheel

Pour all ingredients except the garnish into a cocktail shaker
filled with ice; mix vigorously.

Strain into 2 cocktail classes filled with ice. Add garnish.

Check back all next week for fun and fabulous Derby 
recipes and Derby party ideas!
