A Beggar's Banquet, not the Rolling Stones Album, but the beer-tail. into highball glass of ice: -1/2oz lemon juice -3/4oz maple syrup -1 1/2oz bourbon -about 5oz beer (i used Devil's Backbone, Vienna Lager) While sipping this perfect end of summer, pre fall drink, we're chatting about the goodness fall can bring. Sometimes it's stress free clear skin, sometimes it's not. Adult acne is a thing and it's time to stop living life in shame. I'm here with you...judgement free. Cheers!

This week we're doing what all good bartenders do which is make a riff off of someone's cocktail that they also made a riff off of. Originality doesn't exist. Let's make my play on a siesta which is a play on a hemingway daquiri turns margarita. On the chat and yap front, let's talk fitness journeys and how they're never linear. We all have our paths to health and it's okay to fall off the same way it's okay to pick it back up. I hope this resonates with you <3 To shake with ice: 1.5oz blanco tequila .5oz campari .75oz lime FRESH .5oz simple syrup strain over fresh ice in a highball top with sparkling grapefruit soda cheers!

we're staying calm, cool, and collected here in season 2 and this week we are flippin out, Literally. Our first flip cocktail on the pod: freeze coupe muddle basil and cucumber in shaker add whole egg 1 oz lime 1 oz simple syrup 2 oz gin dry shake (no ice) shake with ice strain into coupe garnish with cucumber ribbon cocktail pick cheers! Sip on a velvety, herbaceous, gin flip while this week we chat about slowing down. It's easy to forget to smell the roses and appreciate the now and present. Our 20's feel like a rush to get to the next, but I thought we learned after childhood to never wish for the next phase because we'll miss being a kid. Rushing doesn't get us anywhere productive and to love life is to love what's in front of you, no matter how small.

This weeks cocktail is a hot n skinni which i came up with on the fly for someone who liked spicy, vodka, no bubbles, and easy.

HOT N SKINNI muddled jalepeno (amount is your heat level preference) 2 oz vodka 1 oz fresh lime 1 oz agave shake with ice/strain in coupe this drink can easily have a rim if you're a rim fan. Try lime with a spicy salt/tajin, or normal salt. that too. or none! Drink visuals on Instagram @sips.with.sav

Failing is okay, and in our 20's we're made to think it should all go easy, in order, and perfect.
