Refreshing

Seasonal

This week we’re watching another classic - The Simpsons. This show will always hold a special place for me because it was a daily watch growing up. I love the characters, the flaws, the over the top stories and the reminder that even in the face of extreme dysfunction, there are things worth holding on to. Here’s to 33 seasons of America's favorite train wrecks and hopefully 33 more! DOH!🤙

I'm just a guy who, like most people two years go, found himself with a lot free time and a bar full of odds and ends and figured out he liked making cocktails while in quarantine! I love to cook and experiment in the kitchen, this seemed like the next great frontier to scratch that creative itch!...

Muddle pineapple and jalapeño in a shaker tin. Add remaining ingredients and shake with ice. Double Strain into rimmed glass. Enjoy.

Editor's Note

Grilled pineapple and smoked jalapeño add layers of char and heat to this split-base Margarita. A smoky, spicy, and tropical riff on the classic.
