People Are Using This Stanley Tumbler for Cocktails—And It’s Kind of Genius
I’m already working with a pretty healthy Stanley collection over here, but I’m on the verge of letting Amazon influence me into buying yet another one. The product that’s currently chilling in my Amazon cart is the Stanley All Day Slim Bottle 20 oz.

Valentine’s Day Cocktails for Every Kind of Love (Yes, Even Self-Love)
Roses are red, violets are blue, here are a few cocktails you should sip with your boo. Or without! Honestly, I've come to love Valentine's Day. And it has absolutely nothing to do with having, or not having, a significant other.
I love seeing people celebrate all kinds of love this time of year, whether they’re showing appreciation for themselves, family, friends, romantic partners or even that random Tinder fling.

After bringing back its Resolution Breaker Marg for the month of January, Chili’s is circling back to yet another fan-fave margarita for its February pick. Many of you are likely already familiar with the February Margarita of the Month, because it was also featured last year.

The Cosmopolitan Cocktail Will Not Survive 2026, According to New Study
I just found out that—according to social media—2026 is all about whimsy. I love that for us. But in the same week, I also learned the Cosmopolitan (my 12th favorite cocktail) might not make it past 2026?! What’s really going on? I can’t be whimsical without a fluorescent pink Cosmo in hand.
Unfortunately, according to a new study from Tastewise, it’s not looking too good for the Cosmopolitan.

I Tried Red Lobster’s New Cocktails—and Was Not Prepared for the Free Lobster Drink Shaker
Apparently, Red Lobster has been dropping new cocktails like it’s nobody’s business. I recently went there to try their newest cocktails, but was met with a menu filled with enticingly unfamiliar drinks like the Old Salt's Smoked Old Fashioned and Guava Chili Margarita. As tempting as those new additions were, I was there to try the sips featured during Lobsterfest. In total, there were three new drinks: The Lobstar, Shoreline Spritz and Dockside Sipper. I absolutely tried all of them and one drink reigned supreme (and it’s not even because of the freebie it came with).
