While Alex and I are busy enjoying the summer heatwave, soaking up the sun rays on the patios of Ottawa’s finest delicatessens and epicurean eateries (with new reviews in the works!), I thought I’d keep everyone’s mouths watering by adding some of my best drink recipes!

A self-proclaimed bartender extraordinaire (Miss Mixologie), I have quite the repertoire amongst friends and guests alike. While busy working on our most recent reviews, I would love to share some of my most favoured drink concoctions.

N°1

York Street Sling
(A different take on the Singapore Sling)

1oz of Vodka
0.75oz – 1oz of Cherry Brandy (to taste)
Fill glass with ice and orange juice
Add 2 sweet wild cherries to the drink (try not to substitute for maraschino!)

A surprisingly simple drink recipe, but extremely delicious and refreshing.

Now to start working on those restaurant reviews…
Bottom’s up! ;)
xoxo

These people are in fact my neighbors, so I will have to hold my punches on this one. I’m not sure why I would ever order online with them ever again, I did once, and it took over two hours. When I called, they eventually told me that there was only one driver for 3 stores, and he was new today.

Great, thanks alot Quiznos, A little notice would be nice considering this was supposed to be my meal.

Never order Quiznos delivery!
