The Snowbaz (Recipe)

Carmen was the final contestant and the winner of this contest with her Snowbaz.

2 shots lemon infused vodka

2 shots lemon granita

1 shot coconut rum

½ cup ice

coconut whipped cream

sparkle sugar

Put the vodka, rum, granita, and ice in a blender and blend until slushy-like. Pour in a martini glass. Drizzle the top with coconut whipped cream and top with sparkle sugar. Garnish with a cross to keep the vampires away or leave it off if you want a certain vampire to get closer.

We chose Aria, the long reigning queen of WTF fashion on Pretty Little Liars, as style inspiration.  You just need some comic books, garden netting and a couple of yellow dish towels for the purse (pro tip: to get butterflies on your purse, just drench it in sugar water, stand really still outside, and they’ll come a-flyin’). And tape.  So much tape. With just a few easy steps, you too can stroll the streets of murdertown Rosewood with your very on generic white boy.*

* Generic white boy not included.  But just throw a 3 inch heel anywhere in Rosewood and you’ll hit one.

Vivian Gandillon (from Blood and Chocolate) would enjoy an O+, a strawberry mocha for the modern werewolf who wants her guy (and to eat him, too).

The two flavors (inspired by the title of the book) represent the two halves of her nature - blood red strawberry syrup as her wolf side and dark chocolate as her human side.

Just casually lying in the yard.  As you do.

The Rhysand (Recipe)

We think this dark and starlight shimmery yet sweet and bubbly drink captures both sides of him - his public persona as the High Lord of the Night Court and the softer side his friends and Feyre see. Enjoy under the stars with your own sexy someone.

Crème de cassis

Purple pearl dust

Champagne

Sparkle Sugar

Coat the rim of a champagne glass with the sparkle sugar. Fill it half full with Crème de cassis and then mix in a small shake of purple pearl dust. Top it off with champagne and watch it shimmer.

The Signs as YA Tropes

Aquarius: No one understands me.

Pisces: Woops. Didn’t see that giant table right in front of me.  

Aries: Smart? Powerful? Female?  Clearly evil.

Taurus: I know I’m plain, but wait until I take off my glasses.

Gemini: Why are you white?

Cancer: I just met you and this is crazy, but your obscure band t-shirt tells me you’re my soulmate so call me maybe.

Leo: Hi. My name is Knatalye. It’s pronounced like Natalie.

Virgo: PROM!

Libra: Where are the parents?

Scorpio: I’m an ordinary kid with no special powers, but only I can save the world.

Sagittarius: This map is going to be your guide to North Shore.

Capricorn: How will I ever choose between these two hotties?

We think vegetarian and San Francisco native Lola would be a fan of the vegetarian Nature’s Choice pizza from Kansas City favorite, Minskey’s Pizza.  It would be on the thin & crispy crust (a must for good California-style pizza), using the Daiyo dairy-free vegan cheese (a favorite of our own vegan member, Carmen). It comes with artichoke hearts, zucchini, green peppers, mushrooms and onions and is topped with sliced tomatoes and slivered almonds. Add an avocado mango salad with lime chili garlic vinaigrette on the side and it’s the perfect combo of comfort food, healthy eats, and cruelty-free.
