Avocado Margaritas – Avocado is added to a classic margarita with a little melon liquor to make for a creamy, fun take on the Mexican cocktail.

Summertime is here! The days are long and hot and sometimes the best thing to get you through them is a refreshing cold drink. I love a margarita and especially a new take on one.

This Avocado Margarita is exactly that. It has all the classic ingredients of a margarita – lime juice, agave, tequila, orange liquor, salt – and a few new ones – melon liquor and avocado. The addition of the new ingredients gives the margarita a creamy texture and different take on the sweet and sour flavor. it’s the perfect addition to any hot summer day.

Here is the Avocado Margarita!

Tips & Tricks

  1. Melon liquor. I actually struggled to find melon liquor, like Midori. I settled for watermelon liquor and it worked just as well.
  2. Drink immediately. Because avocado has a thick, creamy consistency, it will separate from the liquid in the drink over time. Therefore, you cannot make it ahead of time and need to drink immediately after making it.
  3. Fresh lime juice. It is so important to use fresh juice in all drinks. There is a very noticeable difference between a jar/carton of juice and juice squeezed fresh. For margaritas, you always have to go fresh.

    My favorite Epcot drink! I am going to try the new blackberry margarita created by Neil Patrck Harris on my December trip. My son likes to hit up Canada first since he is a beer drinker.

This Blackberry Skillet Pound Cake is SO special! This Blackberry Skillet Pound Cake is SO special! I love this cake because it's so simple to throw together (one-bowl prep!) and comes out crispy on the edges and super moist on the inside!

Rather than rant and rave about this cake in words, I'm gonna let these photos speak for themselves... [swipe to see the most gorgeous slice shots!] 

What makes this INCREDIBLE:
🍰 ONE-BOWL prep (less dishes to wash!)
✨ Crispy edges + moist center (cast-iron magic!)
🫐 Loaded with fresh blackberries
🍯 Caramelized turbinado sugar crust on top
⏱️ Simple to make (even though it's pound cake!)
☕ Perfect with morning coffee or as dessert

The easiest pound cake you'll make:
Unlike other cakes, this cake can be made with ONE bowl. No need to mix the dry ingredients in a separate bowl before adding them to the wet ingredients. Hurray for less dishes to wash! 

You can interchange with any fresh berry on hand if you can't find blackberries – strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, etc. all work!

Woah guys, I need to talk to you about these Choco Woah guys, I need to talk to you about these Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake Pops!

So this recipe was inspired by a trip to a well-known coffee shop. They sell some incredible cake pops there, with the birthday cake being my all-time favorite. But on this trip, I decided to give their cookie dough flavor a chance because I am ALL about the cookie dough!

The verdict? Bleh. It was fine, but I kept thinking about ways it could be EVEN better!

My issues with the coffee shop version:
❌ White chocolate coating (poor flavor choice!)
❌ Didn't taste like a cookie at all
❌ Missing that brown sugar goodness

So I took all my observations and developed my PERFECT version of a chocolate chip cookie cake pop! And you guys, these turned out SO much better!

They're perfect for birthday parties, baby showers, bridal showers, or honestly anytime you want a fun treat that tastes way better than the coffee shop version!

Hot chocolate. It's almost a necessity in winter t Hot chocolate. It's almost a necessity in winter time, right?

Last year I made this incredible peanut butter hot chocolate because, you know, I love all things peanut butter. But this year? I wanted to make a hot chocolate with another one of my FAVORITE chocolate combos: Raspberry Hot Chocolate!

And that raspberry, guys…let me tell you. Adding it to the hot chocolate is like drinking one of those chocolate raspberry truffles from a chocolate shop. So rich and slightly tart. The whole drink is so balanced and I love it!

Making hot chocolate from scratch is much much easier than you'd think. And once you do, you'll never buy those packets again! All you do is heat milk in a saucepan and then whisk in cocoa powder and sugar. Boom – that's it!

For this raspberry hot chocolate, there's just one more step: break down fresh raspberries into a puree by cooking them on the stove for a few minutes. Once it's cooked, you just strain out the seeds and add to the hot chocolate and you have yourself a raspberry hot chocolate!

Perfect for Valentine's Day, cozy movie nights, or anytime you want to treat yourself to something special!

These Smothered Pork Chops are an exciting escape These Smothered Pork Chops are an exciting escape from boring dinners, and honestly? They might be my new weeknight obsession!

Oh my goodness, ya'll. Not only does it smell heavenly, but that flavor is unmatched to any gravy I've ever made before. That fresh thyme really sets it off! 

What makes these AMAZING:
🔥 ONE PAN recipe - yes, all done on the stove!
🍳 No oven or fancy appliances required
💚 That creamy onion gravy is EVERYTHING
⏰ Ready in 40 minutes total
🥩 Bone-in chops stay SO juicy
👨‍🍳 Simple ingredients, incredible flavor

The process is super easy:
First, you lightly fry the pork chops - and don't worry, it's not a thick batter that would make these super unhealthy. We just coat them in spices and a little flour, then fry in butter and oil to get them slightly crispy.

Then comes the magic! The butter and oil stay in the pan (hello, flavor!), and we cook down the onions, add garlic and fresh thyme, then create this INCREDIBLE creamy gravy with chicken stock and cream. The gravy thickens right before your eyes - it's actually kinda mesmerizing!

Finally, add back the chops, smother them in all that gorgeous gravy, and let them finish cooking. The result? Tender, juicy pork chops swimming in the most flavorful onion gravy you've ever tasted!

This is the kind of meal that makes you feel like you're eating at a fancy restaurant but you made it on a Tuesday night in 40 minutes. Win-win!

The best part? This is SO much easier than traditional fudge! No candy thermometer needed - just sweetened condensed milk, chocolate chips, and homemade raspberry puree. That's it!
