Coquito

Kaitlin — Mon, 21 Dec 2020 10:00:57 +0000

‘Tis the season for coquito! If you’ve never had coquito before, it’s a bit like eggnog. Coquito means “little coconut,” and gets its flavor from coconut milk, cream of coconut, rum, and spices. For my version, I also used a coconut spiced rum to really up the flavor! Coquito is a traditional Christmas drink that... Read More »

What. Is. With. This. Rain? I feel like it’s never going to stop raining in Philadelphia! It is now mid- to late May and all I want to do is enjoy some warm weather on my deck. Even if the weather isn’t cooperating, I can still pretend it’s summer with the help of David Burtka’s... Read More »

A 6 ounce serving of Kefir has 6 grams of protein and 20% of your recommended daily calcium, and... Read More »

Frozen Mango Daiquiri

Kaitlin — Thu, 15 Mar 2018 11:00:23 +0000

About this time every year, I start wishing for warmer weather. And yet, this time every year, we tend to get one more winter storm to prove that it’s not quite spring just yet. So, given that it’s still freezing in Philadelphia, I decided to make a frozen cocktail, a Frozen Mango Daiquiri, that can... Read More »

Grilled Shrimp on Sugarcane with Coconut Rum Glaze

Kaitlin — Mon, 22 Jun 2015 11:00:18 +0000

I live in an apartment that has no outdoor space, so we clearly do not have access to a grill, which is causing me to only want grilled food! Luckily, I have a grill pan so I can get my fix, and I’ve been using it nonstop! A really simple weeknight favorite of mine is... Read More »

Watermelon Mojito

Kaitlin — Wed, 10 Jul 2013 11:00:51 +0000

A few weeks ago, I had some watermelon I couldn’t finish. So I decided to blend the watermelon, drained it through a sieve, and froze it for future use. I knew I wanted to make a Watermelon Mojito and having the frozen watermelon puree would make the process much easier. So when I was contacted... Read More »

Each year, my mom makes a beautiful trifle for Christmas. I’m pretty sure at one point, she was only making one, but as the popularity of her trifle grew, she is now up to making 6+ for different holiday events, friends, and family. My sister and I grew up begrudgingly helping my mom make these... Read More »

Cinnamon Rum-Spiked Grilled Pineapple with Ice Cream

Kaitlin — Fri, 31 Aug 2012 11:00:00 +0000

When I was creating my Labor Day Round Up post, I realized one of my favorite grilling recipes was conspicuously missing. My friends and I love to soak pineapple in a rum-sugar mixture, heat it on the grill until the sugars caramelize, and dig in. Although I have been butchering the recipe all summer, I... Read More »
