Netflix’s “The Witcher” (which dropped Dec. 20) is racking up the views, and I am here for it. Helmed by Henry Cavill (aka Superman), this show is fantastical, complex, and incredibly fun to watch. Those of you who remember my Game of Thrones cocktail series know I loooove a themed cocktail (especially one that’s character-driven), so I present to you the White Wolf, a riff on a Manhattan cocktail named after the monster-bounty-hunter, Geralt of Rivia, a.k.a. The Witcher. Let’s talk about Henry Cavill I had never heard of Henry Cavill before I started watching The Witcher. (I know, I ..read more

Limoncello Recipe for the Holidays
LEMON BABY | Cocktails

4y ago
This homemade limoncello recipe is ideal for the holidays because citrus is in season, it makes a wonderful gift, and it’s easy as peeling lemons and pouring vodka into a jar. It is often served well-chilled from the freezer, neat in a small cocktail glass; however, you can also make some lovely cocktails with it, like a lemon drop. Smooth, sweet and intoxicatingly tasty, this limoncello recipe is a must-try for those with an abundance of lemons such as we have on the Gulf Coast.  What is limoncello? Limoncello is an Italian digestivo (a.k.a. a digestive, something you drink after ..read more

‘Tis the season to be jolly, am I right? This Christmas cocktail makes it a little easier to be the jolliest on the block. It features Jackson Morgan Brown Sugar and Cinnamon Southern Cream, whiskey, and a splash of eggnog. This cocktail is creamy, decadent, and the perfect sipper for the holidays. Glassware by ELM Design I first discovered Jackson Morgan Southern Cream when won their giveaway of a fabulous Staub pumpkin cocotte. As a thank you, I made a cocktail with their Peppermint Mocha cream, which I dubbed “Let it Snow.” I immediately thought of them again when planning for this ye ..read more

Disney releases Frozen II in theaters TODAY, and oh boy, have I got a cocktail to celebrate the return of Olaf, Anna, Elsa, etc. My friend Felice over at Disney Sips (a must-follow Instagram account devoted to all things drinkable in the Magic Kingdom) contacted me to see if I wanted to collaborate with her on this Disney Frozen cocktail for the upcoming release, and the answer was a resounding yes that surely reverberated off of the North Mountain. (See what I did there?) This delicious, boozy milkshake features vanilla bourbon, amaretto, and ice cream, and it’ll surely help you relax and “le ..read more

The Best Fall Cocktail: The Fall Classic
LEMON BABY | Cocktails
by Amanda
4y ago
The aptly-named Fall Classic from Gramercy Tavern is fall flavors in a glass, in the best way possible. I first found out about this fall cocktail from a recipe in Bon Appetit magazine. One of the things I love about this fall cocktail is how incredibly balanced it is. Its base is Clyde May’s, the official Alabama state spirit. Clyde May’s is the official bourbon of next month’s Bourbon by the Bay Event, a can’t miss on the Gulf Coast. A double punch of apple (apple cider and an apple brandy like Calvados or its American cousin Applejack) provides the sweetness, tempered by fresh lemon and a d ..read more

For the finale of Game of Thrones, you know I had to go out in a blaze of glory. Enter this Dracarys flaming Game of Thrones cocktail. It’s a rum-based dragonfruit concoction, topped with a floater of Cruzan 151 and ignited. Because it wouldn’t be a Danaerys cocktail if it didn’t burn a little bit, amiright? (Too soon?)

The Pointy End: An Arya Stark Game of Thrones Cocktail
LEMON BABY | Cocktails
by Amanda
4y ago
SPOILER ALERT: PLEASE DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVE NOT CAUGHT UP WITH THE CURRENT SEASON. That aside, man, is Arya the real MVP, or what? The Pointy End, an Arya Stark Game of Thrones Cocktail, celebrates everything our favorite Faceless heroine is: tart, prickly, and sharp. This Arya Stark Game of Thrones Cocktail is a nod to the classic tequila sunrise, but with a twist: less sweet and more nuanced. Beet juice instead of grenadine provides the bloody tendrils snaking down the sides of the glass, and instead of ubiquitous OJ, I chose to make a rosemary lemonade. So, really, it’s nothing like a ..read more

Wildfire Game of Thrones Cocktail
LEMON BABY | Cocktails
by Amanda
4y ago
SPOILER ALERT: Contains spoilers from past scenes of Games of Thrones. One of the most shocking scenes of Game of Thrones was the explosion of the Great Sept of Baelor, in which Queen Margaery perished, among many others. We know Cersei Lannister orchestrated this, and her weapon was the formidable wildfire, a neon-green, volatile substance also used in the Battle of the Blackwater. This Wildfire Game of Thrones Cocktail is an homage to Cersei’s plot, complete with floating rose petals to symbolize the fall of House Tyrell. Midori is necessary to get that green color, but it’s seriou ..read more

The Lioness: A Cersei Game of Thrones Cocktail
LEMON BABY | Cocktails
by Amanda

SPOILER ALERT. You either love her or you hate her; there is no in between. In my opinion, Cersei Lannister has developed into perhaps the most easily-hated of all the GoT characters (except perhaps her own son, Joffery, who completely got what was coming to him). She brings to mind a ruthless lioness protecting her family at whatever the cost. The Lioness, a Cersei Lannister Game of Thrones cocktail, is as golden and complex as the formidable Queen of the Seven Kingdoms herself. Amanda, a dear friend, requested a gin-based Cersei cocktail, and I am certainly not one to deny my friends thei ..read more
