Drinks
Flavor combinations are a major inspiration for me. They encourage new product creations...which invariably lead to new uses and recipes. With a nod to the alchemy of talented Mixologists everywhere, I've decided to introduce some drink recipes that hinge on the specific ingredients in some of my products. These are a mix of cocktail originals and variations on classic non-alcoholic drinks. Since even water can be overdone, it goes without saying that we find a balance between constraint and worthy indulgence. With that, you have barbecues, poolside parties, movie nights, showers, birthdays, card games and serene moments with a good book to relish and make extra special! Enjoy...
