Peach Lemonade Coolers

Peach Lemonade Coolers
Set the table-scape and call me Sandra Lee, because its cocktail time and it's semi-home made. Last week, my husbands sister and her family visited from Vienna. I knew for a short trip, we would not eat at home much, but I had bought plenty of snacks to have on hand for when we were home. Including a ton of Georgia peaches. I may have overbought just a little, because I still had a handful of peaches left when the house emptied out. So I just improvised. The next night, I used the last peach and forgot to peel it first. Peach Lemonade Coolersinspired by The Naptime Chef 2 medium sized, ripe peaches, peeled, halved and pitted 1/2 cup lemonade 1 ounce vodka of choice Puree the peaches and lemonade in a blender until smooth. Pour vodka over ice in a rocks glass.

Sweetened Raw Apple Cider Vinegar Elixir I have received quite a lot of interest from my post on raw apple cider vinegar. So many of you want to know how to make apple cider vinegar just a little bit more "drinkable." Well I have a great solution.

Homemade Wine 101 I have never claimed to be a very sophisticated kinda gal....Gourmet, I am not.....When it comes to food I like good ole homemade stick-to-your-ribs comfort food.When it comes to drink I like good old fashioned sweet tea, coffee, Chai Tea and Diet Coke.(whenever I can make it into the city of course its Starbucks, Mocha Frappuccino, caramel macchiato, pumpkin spice Latte, sooo many yummy fattening drinks from there!) And wine? well .. lets just say I'm a cheap wino. Now, don't get me wrong, I drink alcohol occasionally, like maybe once a month or so. I don't like beer, Mixed drinks are ok, but give me a glass of wine and I'm happy. Even better than any store bought wine is homemade wine!! Then I stumbled upon what they call "Prison Wine" Prison Wine... that sounds easy enough! Fruitsugarwater That's it! Homemade Wine 101... The reason I don't use air-tight lids is the fact that your wine-in-the-making will be fizzy while it "cooks" and build up pressure. Peach = yummm! any questions?
