Sgroppino al Limone - Frothy Lemon Sorbetto Recipe Recipe Type: Beverage and Cocktails, Ice Cream Cuisine: Italian Yields: 4 servings Prep time: 10 min Ingredients: 2 cups (16 ounces) good-quality lemon sorbet, softened 2 tablespoons vodka 1/3 cup sparkling wine or Italian Prosecco wine, chilled Zest of one lemon Preparation: Chill 4 champagne flutes. In a bowl, whisk lemon ice cream until smooth. Gradually whisk (do not use a blender) in the vodka and sparkling wine or Prosecco. Don't whisk too much or it will become too liquid. You must whisk the sparkling wine in by hand because a machine will melt the ingredients. You don't want it too thick, but you don't want it real thin, either. Pour mixture into a pitcher and serve immediately in chilled champagne flutes, tall glasses, or goblets. Sprinkle lemon zest on top. Serve with small spoons. NOTE: The drinks will separate if left standing. Makes 4 servings.

You can’t go to Mexico without drinking the tequila. This is my first ever tequila bandera. Americans make a mockery of tequila. We throw it back to try to hide the sting and get drunk asap. In Mexico, they sip high quality tequila with meals, savoring the flavors of the agave or mezcal plant. Shown here is the standard bandera. One shot glass tequila (Jose Cuervo Tradicional, now available in the States), one shot glass lime juice, and one shot glass sangrita (mix of tomato and orange juice, sometimes spicy). You sip these alternatively. You would be surprised at how enjoyable tequila can be!

A note on micro-brews: It seems not many people outside of Oregon have heard of Ninkasi yet, but rest assured: YOU ARE MISSING OUT! Seriously, probably one of the things I miss the most about home right now.
