Guava Coconut Cocktail

I am bursting with pride! My little sister has graduated from college and is on her way to making her dreams come true!

What a great accomplishment to begin the New Year.  I plan on toasting with her when she arrives tomorrow for a short visit!

Sometimes life hands you a heavy plate, but with passion, drive and dedication amazing blessings will follow!

The flavors of guava and coconut blend together in this festive cocktail bursting with color!

Felicidades Hermanita !!  Let’s Celebrate!!

    Congratulations to your sister. No doubt, she has a great support system. I’m drinking a big cup of tea, but even with that hot beverage in my stomach, I’m hungry! I think I need to break out the banana bread. Thanks for sharing this delectable drink, sweet friend!

    I’m curious about your coconut juice – do you get it directly from the coconut? Do you get a young green one?

      Hi Tammy,
      I used fresh coconut juice, from a vendor at my local fruit market. Feel free to use what is accesible in your area!

  • These past few weeks have been a flurry of travel, cookbook  events, recipe development, writing and a last minute magazine photo session. Add to the list the never ending piles of laundry and lack of sleep this girl was stretched thin. 
I was SO bummed to realize I would be missing out on all the fun at this year's #hispz due to my over booked calender. Then @united  reached out and offered to whisk me away to #Miami - how could I say no? 
A quick moment to recharge the batteries with coffee, sending off a few pending emails and I'm off to enjoy all the amazingness that is @Hispancize - mil gracias to @united for the wonderful ticket service to a personal greeting on the plane. I can't wait to learn, be inspired and spend time with my fellow #talentedlatinos 
Join in on the fun by following along #UnitedJourney #UnitedatHispanicize #hispz 
AND be sure to tune in for the #teclaawards to catch a glimpse of this #tejana (How exciting!)
  • Happy Saturday mis #cocktaillovers - I'm heading to the @strawberryfestx  today to PICK/EAT/BUY ALL the 🍓 the berries to whip up this delicious 🍓 margarita. 🍓 ¡Salud! to a Saturday!

  • Beef shanks are one of my go-to cuts of meats when braising. They are rich, juicy and flavorful and the perfect cut of meat for slow cooking. ❤ ❤ My mami always had beef shanks in her freezer to make caldo de rez, so I grew up enjoying them and now cook them often for my familia. 🔥Today I'm sharing  braised my beef shanks in a bright salsa verde. Tomatillos have an addicting acidic tang which pairs perfectly with the rich, beefy flavor from the beef shanks. ❤ This recipe is part of a special evening in collaboration with @rumbameats and @neighborstable -- can't wait to share more. ❤
