I know the title sounds a little crazy…..but hear me out! I think most people definitely don’t think of ice cubes as anything other than simple drink cooling tools but they can be so much more! Exhibit A below – how pretty do these look !? Essentially you can dress up your party with a little water and flowers! Ice cube trays in general are so versatile for life (freezing herbs with oil or leftover coffee etc.) but they really step it up when it comes to your next special event!
This new Spring weather has me counting down the days until we can be sipping drinks on the patio…and I say “new” weather since we just had a freak ice storm last weekend! Crossing my fingers that this 15 degree Celsius weather stays with us and takes us right into summer.
As we are heading into Spring finalllly, I thought I would share some amazing cocktails that really get me in the mood to open my windows and enjoy the nice breeze. It’s been a while since I shared some amazing things from other entertainers and I can’t wait for you to check out the below!
1. ROSÈ HIBISCUS MIMOSAS from HOW SWEET EATS

Now these are calling my name for the next brunch I host or even for Mother’s Day. They contain tea so I am officially stating they are more healthy than not (please don’t tell your doctor I said so!). The colour from the hibiscus leaves is amazing and you never have to ask me about anything containing rosè – I always say yes!
One of my favorite tips when hosting a party is to have an area where guests can entertain themselves. This could be a photo booth backdrop area or “make your own” activity which allows some entertainment for guests while you put together the last minute touches on your food items.
With a fun suggestion from my sister Patrycja, we decided to spice up our last get together and create a “build your own” Caesar cocktail bar! I always have so much fun putting these types of things together because the possibilities are endless and your imagination can run wild.
I love me a kick-ass girl’s day but it definitely does not happen enough! I feel like February is the perfect time to plan a day together, whether it consists of hosting a Galentine’s Day party or just gathering on the couch for one epic V-Day night. Don’t stress if you cannot do it near the 14th – anytime throughout the month will work! If it’s after the 14th you get the bonus of discounted candy/chocolate – hint hint. Having everyone together is always so much fun therefore whenever you can make this happen is great!
This Lime Berry Refresher is the perfect drink to serve at your next party coming up…….possibly New Year’s Eve anyone?? If you have forgotten – it’s tomorrow!
This drink makes life easy – simple ingredients that don’t need to measured too carefully and can be adjusted depending on your sweetness level. Also feel free to add in your favourite alcohol OR keep it a mocktail – tastes great both ways!
