I call it the Koala Cocktail...

This will be a very short straight to point blog, about one thing only. I'm in the middle of finals, hopefully about to graduate...Therefore I don't have much time to blog. But I really, really wanted to share this with you. Recently I started expanding my taste buds and trying out new drinks.  Normally I like to have a beer or a glass of champagne, but both are pretty high carbonated and make me bloated. So when I'm at the pool that's a NO NO! So I decided to come up with my own cocktail, with ingredients that I love. In addition these ingredients are very refreshing. 
So here it is: The Koala Cocktail : Muddle mint in the shaker,
 Add ice. 
1 oz of cucumber vodka (or regular vodka works too)
1/2 oz of St Germain Liqueur 
Shake! Shake! Shake!
Pour that beautiful creation in a martini glass
Drum Rolls please! 
Top off with Champagne!
Wait! Another Drum Roll!
Garnish with a few slices of baby cucumbers
This is one refreshing, delicious, amazing and pretty low on calories and sugar drink. 
Did I mention its Classy too?!  Try it and call it the Koala cocktail. 
I think its a perfect name for it, not only because I made it up but also because it's green and Koala's love green. Cheers!




P.S. The bartender might be a little bit annoyed with this one. They hate anything that has to do with muddling mint. Don't let that stop you though. If you loved it, or hated it feel free to let me know.

As Always Stay Classy My Friends <3

Bucket List Things...

Last summer I was fortunate enough to take a 3 month trip to Europe. It was surreal, I honestly didn't even have it on my bucket list. But some of the activities we did, were definitely checked off. Doing something that is written on my bucket list in real life, gives me an unbelievable satisfaction. On top of that awesome feeling, I also get motivated to achieve the next thing on my list. My list is endless! There is SO much I want to accomplish!  Today I want to share my experience doing something that has been on my list for a long time: White River Rafting! I have always wanted to do it but it never worked out, until last weekend. This time it worked out so perfect, it was worth the wait!  We were lucky to get a private tour guide who was the coolest dude, ever! He has been rafting for over 40 years, so his experience was unbeatable and it showed when we started rafting.  Our 10 mile trip took us over 6 hours because our tour guide made sure that we woul...

Icelandic Adventures

The Land of Ice awaits my arrival. Or so, I hope. I have dreamt of this for a long time. I'm so beyond excited to explore, yet another country. In just 11 short days, I will be getting on the plane, to depart for Iceland. I have so many things on my list that I would love to see, but so little time. With only 7 full days there, I'm torn to have to pick and choose which places I will have to miss this time. This trip is filled with exciting activities I've never done. I will be talking about each activity in a separate post after I experience it.  Iceland offers some of the most spectacular sceneries: endless waterfalls, volcanos, icebergs, farm houses, natural lagoons/hot-springs, ice caves just to name a few.  I’m also excited for the weather change. To wear a jacket, and gloves and a hat. Living in Florida for the passed 10 months made me really appreciate a little bit of that crisp air. I have been wearing nothing but dresses, so I’m excited for some la...

The Gamble of Packing

It's been a minute, or two. Oh wait, it's been over two months! I have been traveling around Europe, as I promised, and this experience has been so absolutely amazing.  Before I left, I did a little bit of research on traveling, but definitely not enough. I saw the phrase 'Pack Light' a million times. But how do I pack light for 3 months? Especially knowing that the weather will be anywhere between 55/rain and 100/humid. I have never experienced that much of a difference in climate, in such short period of time, therefore I was so overwhelmed with packing, that I just kept on putting everything in the bag.  By the time it was time to leave, my bag was around 35 pounds. But wait, I also decided that I need a rolling bag, which was around 11 pounds, and a small backpack around 4 pounds. So here I am with 50 pounds in my back , without a single clue of what I'm getting myself into. Within the first week I was ready to ditch 20 pounds of clothes because I rea...
