Happy #FuzzyFriday lovers! For those of you newbies to The OP Life, every Friday (as much as I can!) I share cocktail recipes. It’s not about the alcohol or the drinks (just to be clear!! although they can be so much fun!). The purpose of the cocktail is to toast to the week that we’ve just had, toast to the weekend thats before us, and to celebrate our wins that we’ve had. As big or as little as they might be. Whether it’s in our business, in our personal life, every good thing needs to be celebrated. Because after all, life is hard, right? No one said it’s easy! So lets toast to the good stuff! #WINS
This week, I created this concoction out of simplicity and from the fun factor. Watching the effects of the white chocolate liquor makes for an interesting show. So I thought this is perfect for the Halloween weekend that is upon us.
Green Ghouls
- 2 oz Midori or melon schnapps
- 2 oz Godiva white chocolate liquor
- Orange sprinkles
- Lemon wedge for rimming
Rub the lemon wedge around the rim of a martini glass. Dip the glass in orange sprinkles. Pour the Midori into your glass. Slowly pour on top the white chocolate liquor. Best to serve right away as it’s beginning to mix and layer. Serve immediately.
If you let it set, it just becomes lime green and is still fun, but the fun effect is seeing the mixture of the green congealing with the white liquor.
Side note: I personally prefer the flavor when it’s 2 parts white chocolate and 1 part Midori. However, the fun color comes when there’s more Midori. Play with it and serve it to your liking.
So what are you celebrating this week? What are some of your #WINS? I’d love to hear from you!
For me, I can’t believe I survived the week, I travel this weekend AGAIN for sports, and this weekend baby #1 turns 16!!!! {GASP!} I’m trying to maintain my composure and not break down. Those of you mommas, you feel me, right? How can it be??? 🙁 SO SOON???? Wasn’t she JUST 5? This sweet child of mine…. You can check her out HERE. That means one down, one to go!
