This is a recipe that I use all year round but that is especially fitting for the summer! A creamy smoothie that tastes like cake without any of the gluten, grain, and animal products!

Contains NUTS.

Free of gluten, grains, dairy, and eggs.

Vegan.

This is great if you have some raspberries that have to get used stat! I prefer it to taste like raspberries, so there's a lot. :) And it's so refreshing in the summer!

My celebration of lovely, lovely tea!

Cannot go wrong with a hot pink margarita! Prickly pears or Opuntia are edible fruits on a flat cactus which are sweet to taste and a sight for sore eyes.

Here's the perfect recipe of the common Gin&Tonic cocktail

Friends, fancy drinks, cake, a canopy of stars -what more do you need? My entry for the Birthday Bash challenge.

BIRTHDAY BASH

Birthday Bash

Birthday Bash! When life gives you pineapples...add rum! Cool off and celebrate the day with this classic frozen cocktail by the pool.

Birthday Bash Design Challenge - have your cake and drink it too!

This Watermelon Spritzer is super simple, and extremely versatile! Add an adult beverage to it for a little bit of kick for an upcoming party. Yummy!

When fresh strawberries and blueberries are in season here in the Pacific Northwest "Sloppy Milkshakes" is our preferred quick and easy treat. What makes these milkshakes "sloppy" is that no blending (or use of a blending machine) is required. Sometimes I only cut up the biggest strawberries and leave most of the berries whole.

What about a glamourous strawberry sunset cocktail for your next Birthday Bash? The beautiful hibiscus flowers are also edible.

Nothing says Happy Birthday better than a table full of sweets, drinks, decorations and of course two flamingos!

What better way to celebrate a 'Birthday Bash' than with good food and drink? Extra bonus points if you can read the caption without bursting into song :)
