Move Over Mimosas & Bye Bye Bloody Marys...your favorite Weekend Brunch Cocktail is getting an Autumn Upgrade! This Spiked Apple Cider tastes EXACTLY like liquid Apple Pie so you already know these babies go down nice & easy. Pair it with some Paleo Pumpkin Pancakes or an Apple Cider Donut and you’ve got yourself a delicious (and boozy) start to #SundayFunday! This cocktail is Dairy, Soy, & Gluten Free and if you leave off the whipped cream, it’s Refined Sugar Free as well!

Every morning after my run, the one thing I look forward to more than anything is my Collagen Peptide Smoothie. It refuels my body, taste delicious, and gives me a chance to do my morning scroll! Everybody loves a Strawberry Banana Smoothie, but making them at home can be discouraging if you don’t know the right ratios, ultimately ending up with a watery smoothie. The key to getting the perfect consistency is freezing your fruit overnight, so be sure to prep ahead if you plan on making this in the morning! It’s naturally sweetened to perfection, but the flavor can be further enhanced with the addition of some freeze dried strawberries!

Fall is almost here and it’s my favorite time of the year! I‘m an Autumn baby so I really enjoy the cooler weather, slurping on soups, getting spooky on Halloween, and most of all...Pumpkin Spice Lattes! If we’re being honest, I enjoy just about any latte, but there’s something nostalgic about a PSL that lets you know all things Fall are on their way!

My Iced Pumpkin Spice Latte recipe is super creamy, has the perfect amount of sweetness, and if you use a milk frother, you’ll get some INCREDIBLE sweet foam action! It’s #MealPrepSunday in my kitchen today, so I’ll be getting next week’s food together while sipping on one of these babies all afternoon long! ️🎃

This one is for all of my Mint Chocolate Chip Lovers! It’s officially Day 1 of the #SeptemberWhole30 and I’m kicking it off with a Smoothie recipe that I sip on at least 3-4 times a week! I’ve posted this recipe once before, but I’m reposting to stress how important it is to freeze the your produce first to ensure a creamy, flavorful Smoothie! I’ve made Smoothies using room temperature or refrigerated fruit in the past, but I always had to add ice to get a smoothie consistency which totally diluted the flavor. By freezing the fruit & veggies first, you don’t have to add any ice whatsoever, giving you the most flavorful Smoothie possible!

I prepare my “Smoothie Packs” in advance for the week so I can just pop them out of the freezer and blend when I’m ready to go! It only takes about 5 minutes of prep and makes for a super quick and nutritious breakfast. Just freeze your Spinach and Banana in a small ziploc bag together overnight, add all of your other ingredients to the blender in the morning, pop in one of your Smoothie Packs and blend!

Prior to Quarantine, I was fortunate enough to be working Drag Brunch every weekend at different venues throughout the area! In addition to the great food and incredible audiences, I pretty much always had access to a Mimosa! I’ve tried quite a few variations and definitely had some incredible ones, but I think the recipe my boyfriend Jimmy Boone put together is at the top of the list! It’s tropical and fruity, yet still very light (and low calorie, 153cals each)! Infusing the Vodka with Pineapple first took away any bitterness to ensure you don’t “taste the alcohol” and the Orange Mango fruit juice he used added the PERFECT amount of sweetness to the Prosecco, making for one hell of a drink! I had 4 of these last night and can vouch that they are not only delicious, but VERY effective🤪

Crazy Craft Cocktails are a lot fun, but they’re also A LOT of work and tend to require ingredients that you don’t always have on hand. I love a Margarita, but if you look at the ingredients of a store bought mix, you may notice they’re LOADED with High Fructose Corn Syrup and added sugars🤢 I’ve fallen in love with this Paleo Margarita recipe because not only is it super clean & ridiculously simple to get together, but the ingredients can pretty much be found ANYWHERE! I’ll be sipping on these for the rest of Summer and saving the Craft Cocktails for the bartenders once Bars re-open post quarantine! Check out the recipe below and enjoy your weekend!🥂
