Champagne & Grapefruit Adult Popsicles + zzysh®!

August 2, 2017 Amanda Plott
grapefruit-popsicles8.jpg

Messaging below is intended for ages 21+ and is intended to be enjoyed responsibly, in moderation.

It's summer and it's hot. Like real hot here in Texas. The sort of heat that will take your breath away when you step outside. There isn't a whole lot you can do to stay cool outside of water, fans, and some nice cold fruit either. One of my favorite summer fruits has to be grapefruit! It's refreshing and bright and perfect to help beat the summer heat.

Another summer favorite of mine is sparkling wine; namely brute rosé! I love that it's crisp and refreshing. Outside of drinking it, I like to come up with fun recipes and ideas to use wine and sparkling wines in recipes; giving me many different ways (other than drinking it) to enjoy an opened bottle repeatedly!...

Skinny Bloody Mary Deviled Eggs

November 14, 2016 Amanda Plott

I'm not sure what it is about this time of year that always gets me thinking about appetizers. Maybe it's all the holidays and parties going on. Of course, I'm always one that's ready to go big or go home; thinking outside of the box and keeping things new and exciting in the world of food. So, here we go!

It's no secret that deviled eggs are one of my favorite appetizers. They're easy, can be elegant or down-home, and are extremely versatile. Plus, who doesn't enjoy finger foods? That being said, you can't go around plain ole' jane ole' deviled eggs. At least, not around me. I'm always trying to think up fun ways to put a twist on this old comfort food classic...

'Drunken' Birthday Cake Gummy Bears

June 13, 2016 Amanda Plott

My birthday is coming up in a week, and so of course... this just had to happen.

I've been chewing on the idea of soaking some more gummy bears, since last time was rather well enjoyed by all. With my birthday just around the corner, I wanted to change it up a bit and make things a bit more festive. And what says birthday better than cake?

One of my most favorite cakes is funfetti or confetti cake; white cake with plenty of rainbow colored sprinkles. So, that's sort of where the idea of this started to come together. What could I possibly soak rainbow gummy bears in that would be birthday-esque?...

Skinny Mixed Berry & Cherry Margarita

February 15, 2016 Amanda Plott

As the weather continues to warm up here and with spring drowning nearer, I thought it would be a great time to get a new skinny fruit cocktail out there. Margaritas are one of my favorites. Why? Because they are so easily made to be a skinny drink, plus you can get your fill of fruits in there too!

This skinny margarita is easy to mix up, and what's better is that it's full of some good stuff. Not just fruit either, but probiotics as well! It's light, bubbly, and perfect for the nice warm afternoons that we're having here in central Texas...

Skinny Mixed Berry Mimosarita (Mocktail + Cocktail)

December 28, 2015 Amanda Plott

With New Year's just around the corner it's always a party around my house. And with all of that, I wanted to be sure to get some fun lighter takes on my favorite sparkling treats and eats that could also be family friendly! One of our family traditions is to go pajama bowling on New Year's day, and this year is no different. Almost everyone is piling up at my house on New Year's Eve and I'm planning on making up some yummy breakfast enchiladas and these lovely mimosaritas to go along with them for New Year's day brunch!

Since I always like to involve my little girl in everything, and not everyone cares for alcoholic beverages, I decided to be sure and have a mocktail of this cocktail ready to go for her and anyone else that might want the same. This way, everyone can be a part of the fun and no one is left out in any way...

Skinny Watermelon Agave Margarita Poptail

June 12, 2015 Amanda Plott

I love a good margarita, especially in the summer. Who doesn't? Recently, with the temperature climbing quickly here in Texas, I've become somewhat addicted to the idea of poptails. What's a poptail...? Well, it's the amazing notion of putting a popsicle and cocktail together into one amazing treat!

I've seen poptails done in a few different ways, whether mixing your ingredients and freezing together or adding a nice fresh popsicle to your favorite mix-ins. Today I decided to do my take on a Watermelon Agave Margarita using these amazing, local to me, GoodPops.

As the popsicle melts down the fresh fruit inside the GoodPop shows it's beautiful self with small chunks of watermelon and the cold frosty ice of the melting popsicle working together to tame the tequila and triple sec; working as a healthier replacement of a 'sweet and sour' mix...
