Zulay Milk Frother - My New Favorite Kitchen Gadget
I've never been a super fancy at home coffee drinker, but I have to admit that a single product changed this. Recently Zulay Kitchen #gifted me one of their best selling milk frothers to try out and this product is quite literally life-changing. This has completely changed how I make all of my drinks in the morning.
My Favorite Matcha Recipes - Ranked
I recently was #gifted a few products from Zulay Kitchen, and one of them was MATCHA! I'd never tried matcha before, but had actually just listened to a podcast about how great it was (Thanks SYSK) and had really been wanting to check it out. You can obviously drink Matcha just as green tea itself, and it's GREAT that way (My favorite is iced with a little agave syrup), there are SO many ways you can incorporate it into your diet. While there are too many to try each and every one, I checked out some of the best looking ones for you! I have to admit, I'm really on a matcha kick now and honestly loved every single recipe. BUT some were definitely better than others, so here they all are ranked! So order some Zulay matcha and get cooking!!
Mousetrap + Bluegrass Baking Co Pimento Italian Sandwich
In case you haven't seen, Mousetrap and Bluegrass Baking Co are currently collabing on a Grab + Go Sandwich Challenge and there's never been a food competition I haven't entered so here we are! My meat based sandwich not only contains meat, but is honestly a meat-lover's meal. This is my take on a Pimento Italian Sandwich!
My Favorite Galentine’s Day Cocktail
I got to celebrate Galentine's Day early this year with some of my favorite people! We got together for an awesome brunch, and of course ya girl covered the cocktails. I mixed together a super fun amaretto raspberry lemonade, but added a fun bubbly twist with a bottle of champagne and Sprite, so of course I had to share the festive recipe with the world.
Pimento-Stuffed Pretzels
I've gotta admit, Pimento Cheese is hands down my favorite food I've discovered since moving to Kentucky. It's perfectly creamy with the added bonus cheese chunks and pepper pieces. I could legitimately live off of Pimento. Here's my creation mixing the best two foods to exist: Pimento cheese and pretzels.
The Easiest Prosecco Floats
The heat this summer has had me DYING for some good drinks. After playing around with various float recipes, I've decided the Prosecco Sorbet Float is definitely my new favorite summer drink.
