The Lemon Drop Martini is a classy citrus sipper that's served with a frosty, sugar-studded rim. It's also super easy to craft at home and tastes like liquid candy. Could there be anything better than a cocktail that tastes like candy? Obviously, this is a rhetorical question for true lovers of both candy and cocktails. The better question is which cocktail tastes like candy without tasting too sweet or, even worse, cloying.

Is it just us or is the Coquito having a moment? Not longer just a seasonal sipper, the Puerto Rican drink seems to be everywhere both online and in real life. But what is it?. Coquito translates to little coconut, so it’s no surprise that the Coquito cocktail recipe includes coconut cream. Other key ingredients are sweetened condensed milk, cinnamon and a whole lot of rum. It sort of looks like Eggnog but it’s an oversimplification to refer to the Coquito as Puerto Rican Eggnog.

If you've ever seen those beautiful, colorful little cookies in a bakery window and wondered if you could make them at home—good news, you totally can!

Sure, they can be a bit tricky, but with a little patience (and maybe a bit of practice), you'll be whipping up batches of these fancy-looking sweets that are perfect for any party or event!

There are some dishes that just seem to always taste better at restaurants, and Caesar salads are a perfect example. When a stellar Caesar is brought to the table, the dressing tastes more vibrant. The Parmesan boasts a more nuanced flavor. Even the lettuce stands out for being markedly better than what we typically put together at home. There are reasons for that — but they’re all things that amateur cooks can easily replicate in their home kitchens, which is why we talked to Keegan Hughes, the chef at The Gallery, Sand Valley Resort’s latest eatery, which specializes in cuisine from central and southern Italy.
