The Salty Pup: Dry January Recipe
Happy New Year! I know a lot of people are participating in #dryjanuary this year, so I though I'd provide a few non-alcoholic cocktail recipes over the next couple of weeks that are just as special as their boozy counterparts! Some will be variations on classic cocktails, while others will be unique. First up: The Salty Pup, a variation on one of my favorite citrusy cocktails- The Salty Dog: I used pomelo instead of grapefruit as the base for this recipe because I love the a

Homemade Peppermint Patties
These homemade peppermint patties are my new favorite thing. They taste just like the York kind, but even better. We're currently working on a recipe using honey as a sweetener, so be on the lookout for that! But for now, here's the original recipe: 1/4 cup softened butter 1/3 cup light corn syrup 1/2 tsp peppermint extract (I like Frontier Co-op's organic Mint Extract) 3 cups powdered sugar 2 cups dark dipping chocolate · Mix butter, corn syrup, peppermint extract, and powde

Rhubarb Mint Spritzer
I love using Dry Sparkling's sodas in my cocktail recipes. They're pretty subtle tasting and never too sweet, and I find they work especially well with fresh ingredients.

I build this cocktail in the glass, similar to a mint julep, because I don't want to lose any of the peppermint oils after crushing. The mermaid stemless wine glasses pictured can be purch

Rose Hip & Vanilla Meringues
This is my first attempt at making flavored meringues, but they turned out quite well! They were surprisingly easy (although time consuming.) I used very fresh eggs -like from this morning- and I think it may have actually made the whisking more difficult. I hand-whisked mine but you can, and probably should, use a stand mixer. I made two batches, one with just vanilla and one rose flavored. Follow the instructions separately for each batch. The towel pictured can be purchase

DIY Coffee Bitters
I just began experimenting with making our own bitters at Glass Goat, including the coffee bitters here. I used my favorite coffee beans, the Hayes Valley Espresso roast from Blue Bottle Coffee in Oakland, California. I'm about halfway through the process with these right now, so I thought I'd share how it's going so far. I used instructions from the kitchn and tweaked them a little to make my bitters. I also have lavender, juniper, and orange and clove in the works right now
