Saturday Snap – Varadero Sunset

Yes, we were in the Mayan Riviera, not Varadero. Yes, I technically quit drinking booze at the end of last August (but with the caveat that I *mostly* quit which allows me to still imbibe occasionally – or more than occasionally if I’m at an all-inclusive resort!) But yes, this drink we invented a few […]

Mexico Rainbow Challenge – Day Seven – Rainbow

Since I said Indigo/Violet were being combined in my Rainbow Challenge, I was hoping to do a final post for day seven of some multi-coloured drinks – the Bob Marley and the Toucan we had at Moon Palace were the drinks I had in mind… Unfortunately, the drinks I got weren’t quite as perfectly formed…

Mexico Rainbow Challenge – Day Six – Indigo/Violet

Going to combine the last two colours of the rainbow in today’s post because: a) can anyone tell me the difference between indigo and violet? and b) if you can, do you think I can find two drinks that fit those two shades of purple? Her: Caribbean Princess (not on cocktail menu but I think […]

Mexico Rainbow Challenge – Day Five – Blue

Gotta admit – was looking forward to this day/colour for some reason…maybe blue just feels both unnatural as a food/drink colour but also very fitting for the tropics? Anyhow… Her: Blue Hawaiian Him: Blue Lagoon Bonus: Real Mayan Ruins (grey) in the background that you can climb up to and see up close.

Mexico Rainbow Challenge – Day Four – Green

Her: Mojito Him: Caipirinha (which I believe would be as popular as the mojito if it had a more easily pronounceable name! Also, mine should be greener as I’ve had them with a lot more limes.)

Her: Pineapple Mojito Him: Pineapple Mojito (They’re really good!)

Mexico Rainbow Challenge – Day Two – Orange

Him = Bay Breeze Her = Mai Tai (And I think it was the lighting or the cups or maybe even my shirt absorbing all the orange in the room. But you’ll have to trust me that these drinks were more orange than yellow – honest!)

Mexico Rainbow Challenge – Day One – Red

We made it to Mexico! If you read my (long) Year End post, you’ll see that I (mostly) quit drinking. I didn’t go full AA so that I could allow myself the occasional indulgence (or more if I’m at an all-inclusive for instance.) For example, after a long delay including a text from WestJet at […]
