The 3 Second Carajillo

My wife and I don't get a ton of date nights these days. The kids make sure of that. So when we do we want to make them count. For us this is a fun way to get things started before we head out. This is the Freezer Door Carajillo.

I discovered this recently on a trip to Valencia Spain and fell in love. It's the perfect summer BBQ drink but be careful because it will put you to sleep quick! This is the Agua de Valencia.

Sometimes I feel the sugar in refreshing cocktails can be too much. In those instances I want something lighter and citrus based. That's when I reach for this drink, the Ranch Water.

It's summer here in Spain which means a few things. But one of which is the drinks get lighter and more refreshing. And this drink here is a truly great one that they love down in Andalucia. This is the Rebujito.

Contrary to popular belief, Sangria isn't really a thing here in Spain except for tourist areas. And the good news is this drink is better and far easier to make. This is the Tinto de Verano.

This drink is here to officially kickoff of summer! Two years ago I found a drink that I think looks good, tastes good, and is the perfect way to kickoff summer. This is the Aperol Spritz.

Originally born as a mocktail, and still one I go back to that way, this drink is crisp, ridiculously easy, and just a notch above the usual suspects. Perfect for those warm backyard days, kids running wild, grill going, and a drink in hand that feels a little more intentional than the standard go-to.

You only live once, but if you live how I live, once is enough. That's the phrase that came to mind when drinking this Rat Pack era cocktail. It's only 2 ingredients but packed with tons of flavor and is a great night-cap.
