The Dubliner

The rich sweetness of Grand Marnier with a little spiciness from sweet vermouth and orange bitters  combine with Irish whiskey for a cocktail that shines.

Hunter Cocktail

This is considered an after dinner cocktail, traditionally served in a coupette glass with a generous amount of bourbon and sweetened with cherry brandy.

Maraschino Martini

Maraschino is a clear dry liqueur that gin lovers will really appreciate in this martini

Hint: The style of gin you prefer will make a big difference to this drink. At Mixnsip we find that the slightly fruity, aromatic botanicals of Plymouth gin are a perfect complement to the maraschino.

Coffee and Vanilla Daiquiri

Here’s a rich and delicious combination of vanilla rum (Bacardi is good) and coffee liqueur (go for Kahlua) with little zing of fresh lime.

Hint: This cocktail is perfect for after dinner, but try making it without the syrup and you’ll find it works well as an aperitif.

Weight Watcher’s Mango Bellini

From Weight Watcher’s comes the Mango Bellini – a variation of the original peach Bellini, with no more than about 100 calories. How easy is that to swallow?

Strawberries and Cream Cocktail

Strawberries and cream are delicious any time, but as an adult cocktail, they are outstanding.

Hint: Change this drink up a little by substituting the vanilla ice cream for other flavors. Almond is particularly yummy, or try chocolate or even more strawberry.

SKINNY JEANS, LIKE CALORIES, ARE MUCH EASIER

TO PUT ON THAN TAKE OFF.

Dieting is never easy, and if you want to cut calories but still enjoy a cocktail or two it is just about impossible. At least until now.

The Skinny Jeans Cocktails book is a delightfully delicious collection of low calorie mixed drinks and marvelous illustrations. Our own Mix ‘n Sip host, Elizabeth Dodwell, shows you how to take old favorites like Sex on the Beach and Strawberry Daiquiri and create beautiful, guilt-free drinks  in a flash – and all under 150 calories.

And here, in her long-awaited first book, Elizabeth introduces delectable new creations like the Red Stiletto, Devil in a Blue Dress and the 102-calorie Skinny Apple Pie Mojito to help you put on a fabulous affair for friends or just unwind quietly by yourself.

Laced with Elizabeth’s signature blend of humor, Skinny Jeans Cocktails offers 50 minimum-fuss, maximum-flavor recipes that include important nutritional information – calories, carbs, sugar. And the book focuses on a fresh, more organic approach to drink mixing while not ignoring real-life considerations such as availability of products. In fact, there is a bonus chart that gives nutritional comparisons. So if, for instance, you prefer not to use honey, you can check the nutritional values of agave nectar, maple syrup and stevia and adjust the recipe accordingly.

What’s more, there are two additional recipes for 0-calorie simple syrup alternatives that you can easily make at home. One is made with natural stevia, the other with a sucralose sweetener.

And for those times that you want to enjoy a night on the town, Elizabeth guides you how to choose low calorie libations without having to settle for a wimpy, tasteless tipple.

The Skinny Jeans Cocktails book is available for $14.99 in paperback at createspace.com (Create Space is part of the Amazon.com group of companies) or as a pdf download for $9.95 at skinnyjeanscocktails.com. The ebook version will be available soon.

Skinny Grapefruit Basil Martini

Aunt Roberta Cocktail

Considered by some to be the strongest cocktail in the world, Aunt Roberta’s namesake certainly packs a punch.

It’s said that Aunt Roberta was the daughter of a slave owner in late 1800′s Alabama, who fled an abusive home at age 11, picked cotton for a while, then turned to prostitution. She entered into the beverage business by selling homemade gin and moonshine. Most of her patrons were homeless and rumor has it that 34 of them died during the two years she sold her booze, and Roberta herself died in poverty at the age of 32.

If you’re brave enough to try Aunty’s potent potion, this is an updated version. However, it is none-the-less extremely powerful and highly recommended that it be shared with several others.
