This Strawberry Whiskey Sour is so frothy and refreshing. It's sort of like a grown up smoothie... with whiskey! Even if you normally don't care for bourbon or whiskey cocktails, give this one a try.

Doesn't this drink just scream strawberry? I love the thickness from the fresh fruit, combined with the traditional whiskey sour flavor. It's a wonderful cocktail for an al fresco Sunday brunch or dinner. Use the freshest, juiciest strawberries you can find.

I am completely in love with this limoncello and toasted meringue cake. Instead of frosting, this cake is topped with a meringue that is toasted with a kitchen torch or a broiler.


Limoncello & Toasted Meringue Cake




Limoncello plays a major role in this recipe. First, it's included in the wonderful cake batter. Second, it's also included in a syrup that infused the cake after it's baked.

I love baking with ricotta cheese. It makes everything so soft and tender. Add it to cookies and you end up with little mini cakes. It's also wonderful in bundt cake recipes.
