While attending a going away party for a former colleague, a friend and reader of the website Don Steele put this together to send our mutual friend off in style. You’ll want to make sure you have fresh peppers, as you’re going to use one for a garnish and you’ll want it to stand up […]
Two vodkas in a row? Well yes, actually. It’s not because we just happen to be on a vodka kick (we are, as it’s warming up here). It’s actually because the past two liquors (Van Gogh and now Zodiac this week) were gifts from friends. They caught wind of our new format and seemed happy […]

Happy Monday! Not only that, Happy Birthday to Cocktails, 365 executive editor Jenn. Well be celebrating with some low-key cocktails and a nice meal of grilled steaks.

The never-ending battle between vodka purists and fans of flavored vodka continues. We’ve never been too hard on flavored vodka. Nothing worthwhile has ever been achieved by playing it safe and not trying anything new. As such, we tend to gravitate to the higher-quality flavored vodkas. Because just like in your standard liquors, the higher the quality, […]
Editor’s Note: We were having issues getting this posted on its Friday date. However, it was written up and to be posted on Friday morning. Okay, two weeks down and we’ve crafted a good amount of cocktails. The best ones found their ways onto the pages here at Cocktails, 365. The ones that weren’t so good will […]
Oh, Hump Day. For those of you not “in the know” Wednesday is traditionally referred to as hump day. And by traditionally I don’t mean traditionally.
