My View: Fleur De Lis

My new favorite Brunch cocktail is the Fleur de Lis. My Husband and I enjoy making a special breakfast at home every Sunday and we've added these cocktails to our menu. Inspired from one I had in New Orleans. 

1 Part Grand Marnier
2 Parts Lillet Blanc
Top with Champagne, or in this case Sparkling Rose, and a lemon twist. 
Delicious!

Vintage Finds of the Week: Barware





Tis the season for cocktail holiday parties! If you're hosting one this year do it in vintage style with these vintage finds of the week. To start with pour your best bourbon and scotch from this art deco decanter set from Idle Holler ($20). Already have a decanter? Be sure to label it for your guests with a vintage decanter label such as the scotch decanter necklace from Dust Design Co. ($35). Shake those cocktails with a stainless steel vintage shaker and glass decorated with essential recipes from Ginchy Gear ($12). And if those recipes aren't enough to satisfy your crowd be sure to have a vintage bartenders guide on hand, like this Old Mr. Boston Guide from Serendipity Treasures (4.95). Shake it up and have a blast!

Vintage Finds of the Week: Glass Juice Reamers

I recently purchased this lovely vintage glass juice reamer (above) from Serendipity Treasures for my at home bar. Not only will it be perfect for fresh cocktails but also for salad dressings as well! I'm so excited! For this week's vintage finds I have found a couple other reamers for you. A must have in a vintage kitchen!
