Aries (Mar 21 - Apr 19) — Spicy Peach Margarita

Aries, you love to have fun. It doesn't matter where you go or who you hang out with, you bring the party with you — much like tequila. Listen, if there isn't a party with tequila (or Aries), is it even a REAL party? Definitely NOT. Just like a shot of tequila, you are deep and warm, but you hit HARD. You're a Spicy Peach Margarita, made of sugar, spice, and everything nice.

Ingredients:

2 ounces tequila

1 ounce peach schnapps

1 tablespoon red pepper jelly

1 1/2 teaspoons lime juice

1 1/2 teaspoons sugar, optional

2 dashes bitters

Add all ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth. Pour into a glass filled with ice. Garnish with rosemary. (Add a splash of club soda for a lighter drink).

Taurus (Apr 20 - May 20) — Passionfruit Green Tea Margarita

Taurus, just like tequila, you have an often brutally honest interior. You also enjoy the finer things in life and relaxation. You're this Passion Fruit Champagne Margarita.

Ingredients

3 1/2 ounces Tequila blanco

2 tablespoons agave syrup (or to taste)

juice of half a lime

2 passion fruit

chilled champagne or prosecco

Cut the passion fruit in half and spoon the pulp into a large glass or cocktail shaker. Pour in the tequila, agave syrup, and lime juice. Stir thoroughly and taste for sweetness — add more agave syrup if you prefer it sweeter or more lime juice if you like it sour. Strain the cocktail and pour into the glass. Top with chilled champagne or prosecco and garnish with a thin slice of passion fruit.

Gemini (May 21 - Jun 22) — Key Lime Beergarita

Gemini, you are a whirlwind. You want to have fun, you want to get crazy, and sometimes, you want to take all of your clothes off. And what better alcohol to help you do that than tequila! Like tequila, you are bold and you refuse to be ignored. You're like a Key Lime Beergarita.

Ingredients:

1 1/2 shots tequila blanco

1 shot triple sec

1/2 shot limeade

1/2 shot of key lime juice

1 1/2 shots of Corona

Pour all of the liquid ingredients into a shaker filled with ice. Salt the rim of your margarita glass. Add ice to the glass, then the drink. Sip and enjoy!

Cancer (May 21 - Jun 20) — Tequila Sunrise

Cancer, you are a loving, loyal, and emotional partner or friend and there is nothing more loving than a Tequila Sunrise. It's easy to drink and you might end up having an emotional moment in the bathroom with a stranger after you've downed five.

Ingredients:

4 oz. orange juice

2 oz. silver tequila

1/2 oz. grenadine

Fill a tall glass with ice. Add orange juice and tequila and stir to combine. Add grenadine, then garnish with an orange slice and a maraschino cherry.

6 ounces Don Julio Reposado Tequila

1 ounce fresh lime juice

1 avocado, skin and pit removed

Scorpio (Oct 23 - Nov 21) — Pineapple Lime Slushie

Scorpio, everyone knows you're not afraid to be the center of attention, but only a few people can really get to know the real you. It's not so much that you don't open up to others, but more so that others don't know how to handle you at first, like this Pineapple and Lime Slushie. It's approachable but packs a punch.

Ingredients:

Frozen pineapple juice

3 shots tequila

juice of one lime

6 Tablespoons cold pineapple juice

Add the ice cubes, frozen pineapple juice, lime juice and your spirit of choice to a high-powered blender. Blend at a fairly high speed until the mixture is fluffy and no large chunks of ice remain.

Capricorn (Dec 20 - Jan 19) — Paloma

The mer-goat is a larger-than-life personality that can be intimidating at first. With unstoppable ambition, this sign is considered the most determined of all the zodiac.

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.

pizza
Fandango

There are a lot of foods in this world, but there is only one dish that stands above the rest: Pizza. If you're close to me or at least know who I am, then you know that I'm totally obsessed with pizza. It's one of my favorite things to eat and I will NEVER turn down a slice, even if it doesn't have my favorite toppings. There isn't a day that goes by where I'm not thinking about pizza. I even sleep with a pizza pillow every night! There are many reasons why pizza stands above all other foods, and here are just a couple reasons why.

1. You don't have to feel guilty about flirting with customers for tips (or just for shits and giggles).

2. You can be obnoxiously flirtatious with anyone you want. You are free to be that girl that flirts with everybody and makes 'em all smile (it's especially fun when the guy is as cute as Collin Jost). No shame.

3. Making random men nervous with your superior beauty and intense eye contact just for the hell of it is really amusing and empowering.

4. No one gives two poops if ya legs are hairy (your man shouldn't either but *Kermit the Frog meme* That's none of my business)

5. The toilet seat will remain down.

6. There's more money to spend on yourself.

7. There's always this secret butterfly in your tummy that marvels at the possibility that when you go out this weekend you're gonna meet someone super handsome/wonderful/prince-like and have this moment of dazzling dalliance.

8. Nothing is that serious...you can take it all with a grain of salt...you don't owe anybody anything.

9. You can dance with anyone and everyone...or no one (Hello frat boi w/ glasses, I see you).

10. You don't have to fluff anyone's ego but your own.

11. Free drinks and dinners from single guys (It's not taking advantage if they're offering; a girl's gotta eat).

12. You have more time to learn how to love and improve yourself rather than constantly pouring your energy into another person.

13. You don't have to sacrifice your cheesy Jen Aniston rom-coms and Gilmore Girls for his Fast and Furious/other dumb action movie featuring blonde that is only in the movie to supply a relationship to the male lead and to make him look more masculine/empowered in juxtaposition (In other words, you don't have to deal with a guy being a crabby Patty while you watch your cute movies).

14. You can daydream about what your future husband may be doing right now (and not get stressed/guilty out because you're not picturing your current boyfriend that's crazy about you as your future husband).

15. There is more time to be spent with your girlfriends.

Girls Night In
Milk + Blush

We've all been there - you've been saying since Tuesday after French that this weekend is the weekend. You're finally going to break out those new heels and actually put on eyeliner on and make this Friday night be one for the memory books! That is, of course, until Girls Night Out turned into...Girls Night In.
