It’s fall so I’m bringing you a Spiked Pumpkin Spice Latte recipe this week! Have you ever ordered a Pumpkin Spice Latte at Starbucks and thought, “Damn I wish this had alcohol in it.” Me to readers, me too. I used to frequent Starbucks all the time in Chicago because they opened a branch on virtually every block. […]
Skinny Gin And Tonic
Hi, readers, this week I bring you a Skinny Gin and Tonic recipe! What’s better than downing a few cocktails after a stressful week? Downing a few cocktails with fewer calories so you can have more to drink! True confession time, I like to drink. I’m an equal opportunity drinker too. Which means I enjoy beer, […]
The Godfather Cocktail
Say hello to my little friend, The Godfather Cocktail. Certain booze lends themselves to certain situations. I drink rum when I want to celebrate, wine when I want to relax, and whiskey (The Godfather) when I’ve packed and moved my apartment in less than a week and my entire body hurts. This past weekend Kieran and I […]
Skinny Grapefruit Mojito
This week I bring you a Skinny Grapefruit Mojito. This Skinny Grapefruit Mojito recipe is dedicated to my Step Dad, Richard Houston, who passed away this week. At first, I was going to cover up my emotions and write about some forced happy bullshit but I can’t. I just won’t. I don’t want to run […]
Spiked Apple Cider

My father-in-law bought me a telescope a few Christmas’s […]
Pumpkin Pie Martini
Yummmm!!!! Who doesn’t love pumpkin pie in liquid boozy form? This cocktail is creamy, boozy, sweet, and delicious! I don’t live near a Starbucks, so I haven’t been able to indulge in a Pumpkin Spiced Latte yet, but this martini is even better! Halloween is quickly approaching and if you live in an area with […]
Grapefruit Mojitos
Helllllllo from Portland! FINALLY! Take it from me, it’s not wise to travel to 12 states in 16 days. I don’t go out of my way to suggest it, however, I’ll admit traveling to that extent may be exhausting but exhilarating nonetheless. We arrived in Portland on March 28, 2015, around 4:30 pm. Just […]
Nailed It! Kahlua Roasted Marshmallow Shots
I’m adding a new segment to Shock Munch. Not every dish I prepare comes out perfectly, in fact, some of the stuff I make tastes gross, or tastes OK but looks like a total disaster! I’m far from perfect in the kitchen, so I thought it unfair to only showcase recipes I’ve conquered. I […]
