Kim Kardashian Hosts the Launch of the Midori Melon Liquer Trunk Shows

Yeah, I’m way behind on my blogging but with the recent news of Kim Kardashian’s engagement, I was reminded that I never did my post on the fabulous launch party for Midori Melon and ShoeDazzle’s VIP Trunk Shows, hosted by Kim K herself.  As I’ve mentioned before, I’m a SoleSociety Fashion Insider but this girl definitely has room in her heart for as many awesome shoe clubs as possible.  ShoeDazzle, co-founded by Kim, has really stepped up their game with some super cute heels, all of which the cocktail waitresses carried around with the Midori drinks.  Sydne and I stalked the shoes before heading over to SoHo House to meet our friend Kristen.

Belvedere vodka at Coachella!

So last year I had my first Coachella experience and loved it but alas, even though Coachella is next weekend (!), I’m still not sure if I’m going or not, haha.  All that aside, I got the inside scoop on the exclusive Belve Music Lounge, hosted at a private estate in Palm Springs.  This way, even if I don’t end up going, I can at least drink like I’m there.

A Valentine’s Day cocktail from Belvedere vodka

So you know I’ve blogged about Belvedere time and time again (and not just because it’s the official drink of Chelsea Lately).  It’s honestly one of my top vodkas and I’m really loving this special Valentine’s Day recipe, whipped up by Belvedere’s head of spirit creation and mixology, Claire Smith.  Strawberries and vodka…what’s a better combination?

“Sealed with a Kiss” cocktail

Ingredients:

  • 1.5 oz. Belvedere vodka
  • 4 strawberries
  • 1 shiso leaf
  • 1/2 oz. Koshinokaghiroi sake

 

Directions:

  • Muddle strawberries with a dash of simple syrup
  • Add all ingredients and shake with cubed ice
  • Double strain into a coupe glass and garnish with a strawberry sliver and shiso leaf

Bacardi Spooki-Licious Punch

So here’s another delish Halloween cocktail that features one of my college staples, Bacardi.  Oh yes kids, just hearing the name takes me back to drunken nights getting cigarette smoke blown in my face (pre smoking laws in NY) and singing along to Whitesnake and Bon Jovi.  Oh, memories.  Here’s the recipe to create your very own Barcardi Spooki-Licious Punch.  Throw a fist up in the air as you take your first sip.

  • 3 and 1/4 parts Bacardi Superior
  • 1 part St. Germain
  • 1 part Aperol
  • 3/4 part simple syrup
  • 3/4 part lime juice
  • 2 parts blood orange juice or pineapple and cranberry juices
  • 1 and 1/2 parts Prosecco or ginger ale to taste

Add all ingredients into a punch bowl, stirring occasionally; add ice and Prosecco or ginger ale to taste.  Garnish with blood orange wheels and lychee fruit.

Berry Scary Sour cocktail

So as a true Chelsea Handler fan, I obviously love me some Belvedere Vodka.  I was recently sent this delicious cocktail recipe created by Belvedere’s Head of Spirit Creation and Mixology, Claire Smith, who has also been on Chelsea and is totally awesome.  The Berry Scary Sour called out to me in particular because it’s a delicious combination of Belvedere IX, blackberries and blueberries…and I’m a BIG fan of the vodka/berry combo.  Yes ma’am.  Here’s the recipe for this Halloween treat:

  • 2 oz. Belvedere IX
  • 5 blackberries
  • 4 blueberries
  • 1/2 oz. ginger syrup
  • a dash of lemon juice

Muddle the berries with the ginger syrup and add the Belvedere IX. Shake with cubed ice and strain over fresh ice into a rock glass.
