Come with me to FRANCE to discover Pineau des Charentes, one of my favorite products for sipping or using in cocktails. #ad21+ To start if you aren’t familiar with Pineau des Charentes it’s a fortified wine made with grape juice and blended with Cognac then aged in oak barrels. The result is a beautiful liquid with notes of dried fruits, nuts, and spices that pair perfectly with everything from cheese to charcuterie to desserts. It’s perfect for cocktails and I love using it in my martini’s (see the recipe in my book). When I tell you that Pineau upgrades your cocktail -I mean it! I did not know that this product existed until 2018 when I was on a trip to Cognac and I was totally blown away by the flavor, versatility, and quality. So much so that I included some recipes with it in my book. It’s literally my favorite “secret” ingredient for cocktails as well as a fun sipper during aperitif hour- paired with a meat and cheese platter of course! So, I was SUPER excited to go on this trip to discover Pineau des Charentes in its entirety including the craftsmanship, the people, the culture, the makers, the bartenders, the food, the beautiful power pairing, the history and the culture of the region of Pineau des Charentes. I was totally immersed for 5 full days and learned so much that I am excited to share with you!

Let’s celebrate National Cocktail Day with a refreshing spring cocktail featuring @belledebrillet. As a lover of all things French, I’m especially drawn to this elegant liqueur made with two of my favorite things, Williams Pears & Cognac. It takes the equivalent of 18 pears to craft each bottle of Belle de Brillet. With notes of delicate pear and vanilla, Belle de Brillet adds a touch of sophistication to any cocktail. Perfect for both sipping and mixing, it’s a versatile staple for any home bar. For this special occasion, I’ve whipped up this sour cocktail that gives a little bit floral with undertones of vanilla and fruits from the pear & strawberry. A twist on the classic whiskey sour and inspired by a pear glass I found on a trip to Paris, this cocktail is a must to celebrate National Cocktail Day or for everyday sips with friends. Click the link in my bio or visit @belledebrillet to explore more about the brand, where you can purchase and get more recipe ideas for spring. The Perfect Pair Ingredients 2 ounces Belle de Brillet 3/4 ounce Lemon Juice 1/2 ounce Strawberry Syrup (*recipe below) 1 Egg White (Optional) 5 dashes Aromatic Bitters Method Add all ingredients to a shaker Shake without ice then shake with ice Double strain into serving glass Add dashes of aromatic bitters Garnish with strawberry *Strawberry Syrup Ingredients 1 cup water 1 cup sugar 1 cups strawberries, chopped Method Add all ingredients to a saucepan Simmer on medium until sugar is dissolved Remove from heat and cool Strain and enjoy #ad #BeautifulBooze #NationalCocktailDay #belledebrillet #maisonbrillet #naturallyenchanting

Super excited to partner with Total Wine & More again to showcase this delish Spicy Grapefruit Marg featuring Don Roberto Añejo Cristalino Tequila which is sold exclusively at Total Wine & More. Don Roberto is a family first tequila and aged to perfection with exotic tropical notes. It is available in 4 expressions including Plata, Reposado, Añejo & Añejo Cristalino. I decided to take my margarita up a notch and use the Añejo Cristalino to exemplify the citrusy notes of this tequila.
Mark Bloody Mary fixins’ for my friends to make all their brunchy bourbon dreams come true. This project was a great partnership with Maker’s Mark to help promote their #CocktailsForCleanups campaign, which is helping to clean up oceans and waterways around the world. Water is such an important part of the character of bourbon, and it was AMAZING to see this first hand when I visited Maker’s Mark a couple of years ago. You can also multiply the recipe and mix it in a pitcher to create a great batched cocktail for a group as pictured above.
When you have an interest in preparing drinks at your home and any other place, you can acquire some basic bartending skills. Moreover, shaking is one of the best ways of blending your non-carbonated drinks (Whiskey Sours and Mojitos). Sweetening is one of the popular bartender techniques, as you need to add sugar syrups to your drinks. Professional bartenders choose citrus fruits, like oranges for this technique.
Super excited to partner with Total Wine & More again to showcase this delish Strawberry & Chamomile Sour featuring Don Roberto Reposado Tequila which is sold exclusively at Total Wine & More. Don Roberto is available in 4 expressions including Plata, Reposado, Añejo & Añejo Cristalino. I decided to use the reposado to create a fun and tasty sour with strawberries and chamomile. I also love the versatility of this product as it’s great for sipping as well as cocktails especially this cocktail because it has tasting notes of coconut and vanilla.
