What does it mean to have enough? I’ve been thinking about that question a lot this year. It is so easy to focus on what you don’t have and what you are still striving toward, rather than taking a deep breath and appreciating what is already all around you. It takes an inner strength to be able to recognize when you have enough, and to restrain yourself from trying for more anyway. It is a challenge for us all, to catch ourselves when we focus on what is missing rather than what is present, and to take a deep breath and say, “It’s enough.”

Did you know that January is National Blood Donation Month? There is always an urgent need for blood donations. Every 2 seconds, someone in the US needs blood, and we have particularly low blood supplies in the US due to the COVID-19 pandemic. You can help save someone’s life, and it’s easy to do!

The French 75 is a classic champagne cocktail, named after the French field gun in WWI because it packs a punch. :) It was fun shaking these up the last couple of Fridays @drinkdions !

French 75

1 oz Citadelle gin
½ oz lemon juice
½ oz simple syrup
3 oz La Petite Marquise Crémant de Loire Brut

Combine gin, lemon, & simple syrup & shake with ice. Strain into a flute & top w/ bubbly!

It's so easy to infuse your own simple syrups for cocktails! Simmer equal parts water and sugar until the sugar is dissolved, then sprinkle in fresh herbs or spices of your choice. Here I am infusing sage leaves for a sage-lemonade cocktail. Cheers!

Had so much fun sharing the Rare Character Dion’s Select Bourbon at a birthday gathering here in Natick! Barrels 238 (the Bomber) and 240 (the Storefront) were both big hits. Two gorgeous single barrel bourbons worth checking out at @drinkdions in Natick— come by for a taste! 🥃

A coffee-infused Negroni -- elevate the classic with a four-hour infusion of your red bitter Italian aperitif with whole coffee beans. The coffee beans reduce the acidity and round out the flavors of the cocktail, adding just a hint of coffee depth to the finish.
