All recipes come from The Ultimate Keto Cookbook by Brittany Angell.

Dairy-Free Irish Creme 

In a medium saucepan combine 1 15oz can of unsweetened coconut milk, 2 tbsp brewed espresso or strong coffee, 1 tsp vanilla extract, 2 tsp cocoa powder, 3 tbsp sugar free maple syrup, 1/4 tsp stevia extract or monk fruit extract, and 1/4 tsp Himalayan salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. Stirring constantly, allow the mixture to boil until it begins to thicken, 2-3 minutes. Decrease the heat to medium. Keep stirring and allow it to boil until the liquid has reduced by half, 5 to 10 minutes.

Remove from the heat and allow it to cool 5 minutes, then stir in 1 cup Irish whiskey. Pour into a jar and chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour.

Pineapple and Lime Coconut Rum White Sangria

Combine 1 24.5 oz bottle white wine, 1/4 cup coconut rum, 2 cans zero-sugar ginger ale, 1/4 cup sugar-free honey, 2 1/2 tbs pineapple extract, 1/4 Himalayan salt, 1 sliced lemon (seeds removed) and 2 sliced limes (seeds removed) in a large jar or container. Add any of the optional garnishes. i.e fresh mint, raspberries, blackberries, 1 green apple (cut into bite-sized chunks) or unsweetened coconut flesh. Place the mixture in the refrigerator to chill for several hours before serving.

Strawberry Rhubarb Rose Slush ​

Cook over high heat for 10 to 12 minutes. During this time, the fruit will give off its juices and reduce down to a pulp. Remove the pan from the heat and transfer into a medium bowl or a high speed blender. Blend with an immersion blender or puree in a high-speed blender for 2 to 3 minutes. Add 1 25.4 oz bottle of rose and stir to combine Add 1 tsp pink pitaya powder if you wish and blend more. Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and turn on for 30 minutes.

Place the liquid in the refrigerator for 30 to 45 minutes or until cold.

In a high-speed blender, add 4 cups ice cubes, 1/2 cup tequila, 1 tbsp peach extract, 1/4 cup sugar-free honey, 1 tbsp lime juice, 1/4 cup stevia extract or monk fruit extract and 1/4 to 1/2 tsp Himalayan salt. Take the hibiscus tea out of the refrigerator and add to the blender.

Blend on high for 2 to 3 minutes or until combined.

Dip the rims of the glasses into lime juice. Choose the desired option for the rim and place on a small plate. Turn the glass top in the plate until the sugar/salt sticks. Add the margarita mixture to the glasses and serve.

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
