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

The South Coast of Iceland

Iceland! The land of so much more than ice. Volcanoes, canyons, countless waterfalls and wind that will blow you away, literally. Although the ice was practically non-existent, or at least the parts of the country that I encountered. The one place we did find ice it was absolutely, without a doubt, my favorite part of the trip. Never have I ever seen that kind of beauty. It’s a different kind of beauty than, say Bali (which is definitely my favorite place on earth), yet it was magical. The views were absolutely stunning. Something that didn’t even make sense to me was these huge blocks of ice we saw. They have been there for hundreds of years, and have never melted away. However, it’s not freezing and there is no snow. The water isn’t frozen! I’m so curious about how and why this is even possible? The ice was literally blue! So unreal.   Follow me on instagram for more images  @laasbella Stop number one: Diamond Beach Stop number two: Glacier Lagoon Diamond ...

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...

Hiking Trails...

This summer I had a lot of free time and I dedicated a lot of it to exploring the surrounding areas. I love hiking and seeing what nature has to offer. I went to a few hikes in Malibu beach, Laguna Beach and even Arizona.  The hikes I did were not hard, so if you're a beginner, those would be perfect. So here is the first one. This hike was in Malibu.  Its called E scondido Falls and in case you want to explore yourself the  address is Escondido Canyon Trail  Malibu, CA 90265. This hike was fairly easy however, it requires some climbing uphill and a little rock climbing.  The next one is This one is called Malibu Rock Pool and the address for this one is  1925 Las Virgenes Rd Agoura ,  CA   91376 The second hike was a little easier to get to the water. It is about a mile from the road and the path is easy.  Now we are going to go south, to Laguna Beach. The First hike...
