Wednesday Weekend Warm Up (Jaime Style)

Sometimes less is more and Jaime from La vie J'aime proves this today while she is serving up one of her favorite summer cocktails: St-Germain & Champagne. Pull up a stool, order a cocktail and listen as Jaime shares with us her favorite way to spend her summer weekends from behind the imagine bar! 


My favorite summer weekend is heading down to the Cape, aka Cape Cod. It's just an hour or so drive from Boston...you tack on a bit more time with weekend traffic(!), but it's totally worth the wait. Not only can you enjoy the best seafood (fried clamsand lobster rolls are my picks), but the Cape has some of the best and most beautiful, sandy beaches in New England. If you are heading up anytime the remainder of this summer, watch the waters for sharks.... Yes, there have been several great white sitings, eek!
My favorite cocktail is St. Germain & Champagne. While I enjoy it year-round, I love it in the summer because it's sweet (but not too sweet), bubbly, and refreshing! I also love it because it's just 2 (or 3) ingredients, and anyone who reads my blog, knows I am not quite the best cook.


Thanks, Jaime! I love how this drink is composed of only a couple ingredients and there are slight variations on the recipe, which you can alter to your taste! This one is going in my recipe box!
