Here's one more product from the department of things-that-don't-need-any-more-sugar-added-to-them-thank-you-very-much: Fizzy bottled milk with, of course, an extra scoop of sweetness. Coca-Cola is cu...
Smooth. Mellow. Contemplative. A perfect slow-sipping after-dinner drink…. Up until a few years ago, this was not a description I’d ever imagine applying to tequila. But then I’d never tasted a...
We have a particular reason for craving non-alcoholic beer right now, and this has emerged as a recent favorite......
Ok, we've talked about malts and we've talked about hops, both of which are crucial ingredients for beer brewing. What's left? Yeast! It's thanks to this feisty sugar-hungry microorganism that beer br...
I am not a big fan of sweet sodas or sweet coffee, so I was recently surprised to find myself drinking something that combines the two in one very sweet, very fizzy espresso drink. But I have to admit...
If you can't go to the tropics, we say bring a little of the tropics to you! Or at least that's what we thought when we spotted a package of these sugar cane swizzle sticks at the supermarket the othe...
As kids, we always thought it was a pretty funny joke to shake up a bottle of soda and leave it for the next unsuspecting person. Our sense of humor has improved since then, happily - and we've gotten...
We're always seduced by the bright, gorgeous color of Campari—plus the fact that it makes us feel like we could be on a yacht in the Mediterranean—but we don't really love the strong, bitter ta...
Tuesday is Bastille Day - or le quatorze juillet (14th July), as it's often more expediently known in modern France. In honor of the occasion, a friend asked me if I could design a cocktail and call ...
An ice-cold beer is just about the most perfect accompaniment to a grilled hamburger and a side of coleslaw that we can think of! Here are a few of the beers we'll be bringing to our picnics and barbe...
Maybe you’ve been known to make the occasional Gin and Tonic at home, but leave the Mojitos, Caipirinhas, and Margaritas to the pro bartenders to mix up. Or maybe you’re already a master of half a...
We started cold-brewing our iced tea after hearing about the method on a recent episode of the Splendid Table, and we've got to tell you, it's been the best discovery ever! The tea is so smooth and ta...
It seems like we get a question from a reader nearly every week on what to eat for breakfast. The constraints are always the same: fast, cheap, easy to grab on the way out the door. We generally recom...
We have a big bowl of limes sitting on our countertop right now (the result of not paying attention to what you have before buying more at the grocery store), and we're thinking of creating a scene li...
Admit it, coffee purists. You fork over $5 for a Starbucks Frappuccino every once in a while. Or (West Coasters) an Ice Blended from Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf. Sweetened coffee that's whizzed into a ...
Summer is definitely cocktail time for us. We don't tend to drink so many cocktails in the fall and winter; beer and wine are more common then. But summer is all cocktails, and every summer we look fo...
This Good Question comes in to us from Amber, just in time for the beginning of tall, cool drink season: At the risk of sounding uneducated about bar staples, I'm posing my question to you Kitchn foo...
We've asked you how you like your ice cream floats, and we've confessed our own love for beer floats. And now we've found perhaps the perfect beer for a thick, rich, chocolatey beer float; it's nearly...
Memorial Day weekend's almost here. These last lazy days of May call for something tall, cool, and refreshing. Something that's quick and easy to mix so you can get back to that very important job of ...
The tinkle of ice. The scent of fresh-cut lime and the cool, bittersweet, tongue-tickling effervescence of that first sip. A perfectly seamless blend of crisp, junipery gin and thirst-quenchingly zest...
Along with water, hops, and yeast, malt is the other key ingredient for making beer. Shorthand for malted barley, malts are integral to fermentation and are also responsible for many of those deliciou...
It’s Mother’s Day on Sunday - and there’s a whole summer’s worth of lazy weekend mornings stretching out ahead of us. Seems like just the right time to look at some tall, cool, brunch-able dri...
We'd always considered chocolate-flavored teas a product of the dieting industry until Alex Whitmore, co-founder of Taza Chocolate, mentioned that chocolate teas were a traditional South American drin...
Cinco de Mayo is just around the corner. Why not get things started a little early this weekend with a Margarita? A cool, thirst-quenching combination of tart and sweet, accented by the warmth of teq...
As the weather warms up, we're craving fewer pots of hot tea (yes, pots – we go through two or three a day!) and are swapping them for refreshing glasses of iced tea. Some of favorite ingredient...
