Princess Cruises Partners With Iconic Mexico City Bar To Debut Five Exclusive Cocktails At Sea

If you’ve ever been to Mexico City, then you likely know that the cocktail bars in that destination are top notch. But if you’re unable to get to Mexico City anytime soon, you can still experience one of the city’s hottest bars thanks to an unexpected, new partnership. Last week, Princess Cruises announced that it was partnering with the award-winning Handshake Speakeasy to introduce five exclusive, bespoke cocktails. Given that Handshake Speakeasy was named The Best Bar in North America by World's 50 Best Bars for two consecutive years, this is a huge deal for cocktail enthusiasts.

Outback Is Bringing Back A Fan-Favorite Holiday Drink Gingerbread Lovers Will Flip Over

Quick question: Do you guys have a favorite holiday-inspired flavor? Although there are a ton of options to choose from—including everything from peppermint to hazelnut—I’m convinced that one flavor reigns supreme. And that’s none other than gingerbread. While you likely won’t catch me chomping on Gingy’s head, I do love a splash of gingerbread syrup in my chai latte and a solid gingerbread martini every now and then.

And do you know who also loves gingerbread? Outback Steakhouse! Mhmm they love it so much that they’re bringing back two fan-favorite sips for the holiday season: Gingerbread Cookie Martini and Gingerbread Fizz (Non-Alcoholic). And can we talk about how adorable the mini Santa koalas are??

Yes, This Boozy Ice Cream Has Real Bourbon—Plus Marshmallow Fluff And Chocolate Swirls

Apparently it’s boozy ice cream season, and I’ll tell you one thing, I’m certainly not complaining. Just a few days after Jeni’s Ice Creams announced that it would be bringing back its Boozy Eggnog flavor, another beloved creamery has shared similar news. Tipsy Scoop, a brand that blends ice cream with cocktail culture, will be releasing a new flavor in partnership with Five Springs Infused Bourbon.

The new offering from the duo is a limited-edition bourbon ice cream that sounds absolutely decadent. The new flavor, which is dubbed “World's Best Cup of Coffee,” blends roasted coffee ice cream with Five Springs Vanilla Maple Bourbon, rich chocolate swirls and marshmallow fluff. I’m a huge fan of coffee ice cream, but also love texture, so I’m sooo glad that Tipsy Scoop added other elements like chocolate swirls and marshmallow fluff to its World’s Best Cup of Coffee ice cream.

Red Lobster’s New Menu Will Include Holiday Cocktails And Additional Seafood Boil Flavors

With restaurants like TGI Fridays and P.F. Chang’s already rolling out their holiday offerings, I knew it was only a matter of time before one of my faves shared their seasonal selections. And sure enough, at the start of this week, Red Lobster announced an assortment of bold new menu items and festive holiday cocktails. I’m obviously most excited for the holiday cocktails, and this year, we’re getting two of them: Under the Mistletoe and Sugar Cookie Martini.

A perfect option for those who love a fruity bourbon beverage, Under the Mistletoe features Elijah Craig Small Batch Bourbon, cranberry juice and blackberry. The cocktail is then garnished with rosemary.

Delicious Friendsgiving Cocktails That’ll Keep The Gratitude And The Good Vibes Flowing

Can I make a confession? Okay, here goes…I like Friendsgiving wayyy more than I do Thanksgiving. I have so much fun when my friends host Friendsgiving. It’s always a great vibe. The food is a hit. Drinks are on point. And there’s always a bunch of crazy games to keep the fun going late into the evening. And while I love a traditional Thanksgiving meal, Friendsgiving also opens the door to different kinds of cuisine. For instance, one year, my friend and I hosted Phosgiving. We had pho, and other Asian-inspired bites. Needless to say, it was a hit. And the possibilities really are endless—brunch, pizza party, martini hour…go crazy.

Chili’s ‘Wicked’ Inspired Margaritas Are Here For November—Here’s What You Need To Know

Before I even get into Chili’s new Wicked-inspired margaritas, can we talk about the fact that The Witches Brew Marg is returning for a second consecutive month?? I’m so happy! I was an immediate fan when The Witches Brew Marg debuted last year and was so upset that I couldn’t make it out to Chili’s this month to try it again. But now it’s back for November! The restaurant will be serving both The Witches Brew Marg and The Good Witch Marg for the next few weeks. And if you thought Chili’s was popping in October, just wait until November rolls around.

This doesn’t appear to be an official Wicked collaboration, but it’s clearly inspired by the film, which hits theaters again on November 21. The Witches Brew Marg’s electric green hue and swizzle broomstick are reminiscent of Elphaba, while The Good Witch Marg just screams “Glinda” with its pink tint and sparkly wand.

From Apple Cider Margaritas To Campfire Old Fashioneds, These Are Fall’s Coziest Cocktails

Does anyone else feel like October absolutely zoomed by? As the official start to fall (and my birthday month!), October is easily my favorite time of year. The heat and humidity are finally out the door, and all my fall faves like apple cider margaritas, boozy hot chocolate and mulled wine finally start to show themselves once again. Although we’re already chucking the deuces to October, I just want to offer a friendly reminder that fall doesn’t end until December 21. With that being said, we’ve still got plenty of time to indulge in our favorite seasonal sips. I even plan on making myself some mulled wine for Sunday Night Football this weekend!
