Do you know what makes candy even better though? Booze. A candy + booze combo is seriously underrated and deserves way more attention than it gets. Also, nothing screams grown up like a boozy candy cocktail, amirite? So, here are 6 delicious candy inspired...

This year, I think we can celebrate better than with stale green beer and nuts. In its place, we've rounded up 6 delicious (and always classy) cocktails and 6 mouth watering desserts:

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basWhen you get asked to come by for a personal mixology lesson at a downtown restaurant and local, you whole heartedly say: 'Yes! A thousand times, yes!'. So obviously when local hot spot Brassaii asked us to do exactly that, we went on over immediately to see what they had in store for us.

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basYou should all know by now that I enjoy sipping a cocktail or two during the holiday season. I'm not picky either, I don't play favourites with my drinks. I'm a fan of wine, beer and have been known to even enjoy a glass of whiskey now and again.

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basBoo! We're only a few weeks away from one of my favourite holidays: Halloween!
I love Halloween because it's awesome for both adults and children (and adult-children like myself who refuse to grow up). While the kids are overdosing on sugar, I think you should sit back, relax and pour yourself a Halloween inspired cocktail.
1. Blood-Orange Cocktails
1 1/2 cups fresh blood-orange...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basIt's almost my birthday (#winkwinknudgenudge) and it's Friday and it's one week 'til the Labour Day weekend. If that isn't a reason enough to celebrate and have a delicious drink, I don't know what is. Today, I've got a doozy of a drink recipe for you! It's a twist on a White Russian that I've creatively dubbed 'The Sweet White Russian' (ok, not so...
