Richie and I spent the last week in Panama City Beach! This is my MOST FAVORITE place in the world!  We’ve gone three times now and love it more every time.  I will be sharing more about our trip in the coming days, but first, I want to share my {Drink of the Week} with you.  Of course I wasn’t home all week, wasn’t cooking and wasn’t mixing up my own drinks in a blender on my kitchen counter.  This week it was all done by someone else!  That’s part of the joy of vacation! Someone else does all the work, someone else cleans up the mess!  I don’t have exact measurements for these drinks and two were invented on the spot by our bartender.  I will list the ingredients and leave you to experiment in your own kitchen.

Coconut Groove

Coconut Rum

Chocolate Coconut Cocktail (invented for Julie by the bartender)

My request: Something chocolaty, not too sweet, not frozen
