Hey there! My name is Brittany and I am one half of the blog For The Love Of Blank! We write about food, wine, travel, and lifestyle. I recently got engaged and have started planning my wedding!

I absolutely love to travel. I will jump at any excuse to visit a new place. When not traveling I try to go on mini-adventures in my hometown. I love to kayak, paddleboard, hike, or bike! One thing that I have had to learn as I got older is to fully enjoy the city that I live in! In college I did not take advantage of where I was living and I never explored. Now, I moved back to my hometown and I have learned to explore this town as if it is brand new!

Well, if you have any advice on planning a wedding feel free to send them my way! Also, any travel recommendations are always welcome! I hope you enjoy these drinks as much as I do!

This is seriously one of the easiest mixed drinks to make. And it is sure to please everyone at your party or get together!

How to: 
​
Pour Vodka and Rum into a punch bowl

Add frozen chopped pineapple (It’s like ice cubes!)
Put bowl in refrigerator and let chill for 30 minutes
Once chilled taste and add honey as needed
*Or leave honey next to bowl for guests to add to their liking!

Mimosa Sunrise

I am a firm believer that mimosas are for every occasion. But sometimes they need a little something extra to make them pop!

Yields 1 mimosa 
Ingredients:

4 oz champagne 
2 oz orange juice
1 oz lemon juice
.5 oz grenadine

How to:

Mix orange juice and lemon juice
Pour in Champagne 
Slowly pour grenadine on top
*Pour over the bottom of a spoon if you want it to look extra pretty! 
Add a lemon or orange slice to the side of the glass if you are feeling fancy

Mango Margaritas

​You can’t go wrong with a fruity margarita! It tastes like springtime and is the perfect drink to sip on while laying on your patio!
​Yeild 2 – 3 Margaritas
Ingredients:

6 shots Mango Juice (or other flavor)
2 shot Real Lime Juice
4 shot Any brand silver tequila
2 shot Triple Sec
Crushed ice
Sugar
Sliced limes


Directions:
Pour all the ingredients over the crushed ice in a shaker 
*If you do not have a shaker, a large mason jar with a lid with work 
Use the inside part of the lid to strain the ice 
Pour some sugar on a plate, then run a slice of lime around the rim of your glass 
Next roll glass rim into sugar on a plate 
Fill your glass with more crushed ice, and strain the margarita into the glass 
Garnish with a lime and enjoy!

Peach Black Iced Tea

I could drink this tea year round but it always puts me in the mood to be outside!

Yields 18-22 servings
Ingredients:

2 quarts black iced tea
4 quarts peach iced tea
2 quarts lemonade
Sweetener of your choice

How to: 
I like to set this up as a do it yourself bar at bbqs but you could do this as one large mixture as well and get the same ratio!

To brew the teas boil 1 quart water and steep 8-10 tea bags for 5 minutes
Then add hot tea to 1 quart cold water 
(Double both steps for Peach Tea)
Pour teas and lemonade into their own pitchers
Fill cup with ice and add ½ peach tea, ¼ black tea, ¼ lemonade
Add sweetener as needed 

Easiest Iced Latte EVER!!

Picture
​I am kind of cheating with this recipe since it really only has two ingredients. But I feel like everyone should know about it! 
Ingredients: 
5 oz brewed espresso (Or strong coffee)
1 Premier Protein Shake 

How to: 
Brew 5 oz espresso or extra strength coffee in the method of your choosing. 
(I use my Keurig) 
Fil 20 oz cup full of ice
Pour in coffee and one Premier Protein Shake (Any flavor, but I prefer chocolate)
Stir and enjoy!
