pOlar berry latte

on 0 105 Views

This Polar Berry Latte is a luxurious brew of white chocolate, hazelnuts, and blackberries that’s like being wrapped in a warm fuzzy blanket! I mean, is there anything better than being snuggled up on the couch in a fluffy blanket with a cup of coffee? Maybe a puppy or two on your lap and a good book???

With just the right amount of blackberries to give it a slightly fruity taste but not enough to overpower all the other flavors and the oat milk pairs perfectly with the white chocolate creating something that is one of the best lattes I’ve ever made…or had!
I can confirm that it was a hit with my husband as he sat there with his mug looking at it with a mad scientist look on his face with whipped cream on his lip lol! Give it a try this winter and see if it doesn’t give you warm-fuzzy feelings! Or make you stare crazily into your cup lol!

A cocktail variation of this may be coming around the corner…we’ve already tried a few different liquor combinations that have been absolutely delicious! What liquor would you like to see in a Polar Berry cocktail combo??

apple pie dOnuts

A delicious cinnamon rolled cider donut topped with warm apple pie filling, buttercream, and don’t forget the slight drizzle of caramel sauce!
It’s like having a cupcake, donut, and slice of apple pie all at once and it’s amazing!

I was inspired to make these after trying them at a bakehouse close to the eye veterinarian where we take our pups. At first bite I knew I had to try to recreate these…

From time to time we have to take our dogs to the eye vet, and it’s a good hour away for us so we usually like to make a trip out of it. On the way, we listen to some true crime podcasts and do a little online reconnaissance of restaurants in the area, plan a takeout dinner, and maybe a little cup of joe from a coffeehouse somewhere in the area. That’s how I found these little babies…they looked so good in the clear container sitting on the dashboard on the way home…it was torture looking at them!

After a couple of test runs, I’ve perfected making them! It takes a little bit of effort but with the help of some apple cider concentrate, they taste legit like you just walked out of a cider mill! Even though there is already snow on the ground I’m not ready for winter and not willing to give up fall yet…well at least not till the day after Thanksgiving!

pumpkin patch cOcktail

on 0 85 Views

Forget pumpkin pie, this may be the best way to have pumpkins yet!

A bit of pumpkin butter and some cider mixed in with brandy and orange liquor…the hardest thing about making this drink is trying to limit how many you consume…it’s so dang tasty you might need someone to cut you off!
This is my take on Half Baked Harvest’s Haunted Pumpkin Patch Margarita and I’m in love with it!
I used an apple cider concentrate mixed with water but you can use any apple cider and it would be equally as tasty.

Alternatively, you could make this a mocktail by replacing the brandy with more apple cider and the orange liquor with orange juice.

One last suggestion, with any leftover apple slices I recommend dipping them in the sugar rim that is remaining and having a snack…yummy!

dulce de leche cupcakes

on 0 105 Views

Cupcakes are meant to be shared…or are they just individual portions for you to enjoy without having to cut into a cake??!

With a spice cake that is soaked with rum and filled with a gooey bite of dulce de leche and topped with dulce de leche swiss meringue buttercream these cupcakes may just make you think twice about sharing!

It may still be hot outside but fall is definitely in the air…pumpkin spice is out in force this year and is it just me or is it out extra early? While this may not be pumpkin spice it certainly gives fall vibes!

cherry lOng island iced tea

on 0 343 Views

Amped up with cherry flavor this long island iced tea is the refreshing drink you’ve been looking for this summer!

I’ve always found long island iced teas way too strong so I set out to create one that actually tastes good. And bonus…if you don’t want alcohol in it you can easily omit it with this recipe! Letting the cherries marinade in the tea overnight brings out the fruity notes in the tea but if you don’t have the patience to wait that long you can still enjoy right away and mix up your drink but I highly recommend letting the mixture sit overnight. Either way it’s super delish!
