Sailor's Soda (21+)



Am I the only person quarantine has converted into a mixologist?

Since being home and having ample downtime, I have taken to mixing up cocktails with ingredients on hand and others I get my hands on through grocery delivery/mail ordering such as juices, syrups, etc.

Which brings me to the concoction shaken today: Sailor's Soda as I like to aptly call it. I tincture of vitamin C ladden juices and gin the beverage could have boarded pirate ships of the olden days and cured scurvy (or so I'd lkke to think).

Check out the recipe below. It's bright and easy on the palate but definitely packs a punch!



Recipe:
2 oz pineapple juice
1 oz guava nectar
1 oz lemon juice
1/2 cut up lemon
1/2 cut up lime
1/4 tsp of sugar or sugar substitute
2 oz gin
A splash of Club Soda
Ice

Mix all the ingredients in a shaker with the ice (reserve 1/2 the lemon and lime pieces). Shake well until mixed.

Pour into a glass over ice and top with a splash of club soda. Add the lemon and lime pieces to garnish.

ARG! (I couldn't help it)
Sip and enjoy!

Vegan Meal Prep

Hello Dames and Dolls! I finally caved! This week I meal prepped. I always see cute pics and used to see coworkers who meticulously portioned colorful, fragrant foods into little plastic and glass containers. I also thought each time "Who has the time?" Well, since Corona, I now do. And I did just that. First, came grocery shopping, then as life goes I had to delay prepping by one day. But finally, I gloriously prepped. Keeping everything somewhat simple and using  containers from Amazon , I prepped: Hummus and Veggies Potato and Kale bowls Chili with tortilla strips Burger Salad Fresh Fruit Fruit and Yogurt Parfaits Granola with Milk Granola with Yogurt Smoothie Bowls I listed all the breakdowns/recipes on my IG, @doseofvegan_, so be sure to go check it out!

Disney at Home: The World of AVATAR Pongu Pongu Night Blossom

Hello all! I am so glad to be back! I am back with a new 'eatspirational' recipe. The summertime heat of August has got me CRAVING the deliciously sweet and tart frozen Night Blossom drink from Animal Kingdom. On my recent visit to Disney World, I had the frozen concoction boozey version with the rum added.  **The Disney trip vlog will be uploaded this weekend :) Be sure to check out my Youtube channel for the happiest adventure on Earth! I like  most sweet frozen drinks so the Night Blossom was definitely on the must-try list. Tangy and sweet layers of desert pear and green apple are topped with popping boba and as I mentioned before, there is a 21+ version that includes a heavy handed portion of rum. The beautiful result is an 'Instagram-able' cup of frozen candy-like beverage. Disney uses several different companies for flavoring syrups and lemonade but this one is super simple; Monin for the syrups and Simply brand limeade. You may need to order your popping boba on...
