So…we’re spending a lot more time at home than we’d like to at the moment and our Summer isn’t looking quite the same as usual. With Summer holidays having been completely cancelled, or altered, and weekends being spent in the garden rather than in our favourite busy city spots, it can be tough to...
Wine Wednesday: White and Rosé from Fine Wines Direct UK
I’m back with another Wine Wednesday and this week I’m giving you twice as much fabulous wine content as last time. Yeah that’s right, I’m taking you through a white AND a rosé (I spoil you, I know) from a UK based wine distributor which I’m so excited to share with you. If you...
Wine Wednesday: Lady of the Grapes
Wine is something that I started developing an interest in about 4 years ago when I took a trip to one of my favourite Spanish cities, San Sebastián. As an 18/19 year old at the time, wine wasn’t something that I’d really drank a lot before. My go-to was a whiskey sour or a...
Cocktail Hour: Aperol Spritz
The Aperol Spritz is one of those cocktails that everyone’s heard of. After it became massively trendy in the last year or so, pretty much all of us have tried it. It’s been a favourite drink of mine for years, and one that I make on the regular. I was thinking about whether or...
Cocktail Hour: Cocktails by Lollipop
For my latest post in the ongoing ‘cocktail hour‘ series, I’m switching things up a bit. If you’ve been following along with a few of my recipes then you’ll know that recently I shared my Whiskey Sour and Spiced Mojito recipes. But this time instead of sharing a cocktail recipe of my own, I...

Over the years, cocktail making has been an interest of mine, but given the current circumstances I’ve been finding myself trying out new cocktail recipes on the regular. I mentioned over on my socials that I was thinking about...
CleanGin From The Clean Liquor Company Review
Low alcohol and alcohol free alternatives to our boozy favourites have become more and more popular in recent years. In the age of the ‘health conscious’ and overall more ‘health aware’, so many of us are looking for healthier options and alternatives to some of our food and drink favourites. Intrigued to learn a...
Cocktail Hour: Whiskey Sour
A whiskey sour has been one of my go-to cocktails for years. I think it was actually the first cocktail that I ever learned how to make back in my late teens. It became a bit of a signature drink for me, so I thought maybe it could be a crowd pleaser for you...
Making My Own Liverpool Gin
A few weeks ago I was invited to the Liverpool Gin Distillery to try out their Gin Lab Experience along with some Liverpool bloggers. Located in one of my favourite parts of Liverpool City Centre, the Liverpool Gin Distillery is the ultimate bar to visit for a great G&T. Or if you’re...
Cocktail Hour: St Germain Spritz
Picture this… it was back in August on my 22nd birthday. I was stuck in Manchester airport with a 4-hour delay on my flight to Jerez and had plenty of time to kill. So of course my solution to the delay was trying out a new spritz in the airport bar. It was my...
