This year Valentine’s Day isn’t going to be quite what we’re used to. Since traditional celebrations of getting dressed up and heading out on the town aren’t exactly possible this year, it’s time to get creative with your at-home Valentine’s celebrations. With our favourite cocktail bars being a no-go for the time being, why...
It’s cocktail hour here on F O and this time I’m sharing a citrus-spice twist on a French 75. After all, if there’s a time of the year to spice your classic cocktails up then it’s got to be during the festive season. This post contains an item that was gifted to me (marked with an asterisk)....
Let the festivities continue! This time I’m talking gifts. It’s that time of year when we’re all thinking ‘oh god, Christmas is getting awfully close isn’t it? What am I going to get so-and-so?!’. Unless you’re one of those incredibly well organised Christmas gift buying bosses..which I most certainly am not. So for anyone...
We’re going dark and fruity this time for Wine Wednesday with the Dark Horse Merlot. Dark Horse are a fairly new brand to me but they’re one that has quickly become a go-to of mine as well. I tried their rosé a few months back when it had a discount on in Tesco (and...
It’s been a hot minute since the last Wine Wednesday, I know. And that most definitely is not because I haven’t been drinking wine (because I’ve actually been trying plenty of new wines over the last couple of months). If I’m completely honest it’s because I kept forgetting to take photos of the wine...
Another day another cocktail recipe to try out at home. This time I’m sharing a lovely light, refreshing spritz that’s perfect for sunny day sipping..a rosé spritz. I found the inspiration for this recipe over on Taste of Home from their ‘Swedish Rose Spritz’ recipe and knew I had to try it for myself....
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...
Who doesn’t love an excuse to have a mid-week wine? This Wine Wednesday I’m sharing a stunning red wine stocked at a London-based independent wine bar and shop, Lady of the Grapes. The items included in this post were sent to as press samples. For more information about this please feel free to read...
An Aperol Spritz is one of those cocktails that pretty much everyone will have heard of. After it became massively trendy over the last few years or so, I think it’s fair to say that most of us will have tried it at some point. For me, it’s been a favourite drink for years,...
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. The drink was...
