My Mistress's Favorite + A New Desk.

Back on January 5th (aka National Whip Cream Day), my homegirl Alexis, who works for Naked Jay Vodka's PR company, contacted me with a new cocktail recipe featuring NJay's Whip Cream Vodka and asked if I'd like some samples to try it. Would I turn down free vodka? Heckkkkk no.

I finally gathered my ingredients after a few trips to the grocery store - there were only 3 ingredients but I have a tendency to make lists and leave them at home. Cameron has started to study for his PE (Professional Engineer) exam that he's taking in April so that means I get to watch whatever shows I want (Bachelor) and drink tasty concoctions while doing so.

If you can get your hands on some NJay whip cream vodka, I highly suggest you try this recipe!

My Mistress's Favorite
1 ½ oz. Naked Jay Whip Cream Vodka
4 oz. Pineapple Juice
Splash of soda.

 Combine in a highball glass and stir. Garnish with a pineapple wedge.

Soaked some pineapple chunks in it. YUM.

And speaking of Cameron studying..I snapped this pic of him studying Monday night. We found the desk on Craigslist and picked it up on Sunday. That thing was a beast to get in the house and I'm pretty sure I strained a muscle in my neck from it.

Toodles!

Thankful for Naked Jay Big Dill Vodka.

I'll save the sappy stuff for tomorrow.
Today, I'm here to talk about vodka.
Not just any vodka.
PICKLE VODKA.

Last week, after I posted about National Pickle Day, I got a glorious email. It was from a girl named Alexis who does PR for a company called Naked Jay Vodka. She introduced me to this new company and said she wanted to send me some pickle flavored vodka! I emailed her back IMMEDIATELY with my address.

Naked Jay Vodka is based out of New Orleans, Louisiana and currently has three flavors of vodka: 80 proof original, whip cream and big dill! The vodka is only available in Virginia at the time, but is also about to be released in Illinois and will be slowly releasing to additional areas.

I recieved my package of mini-bottle samples (1 regular vodka, 1 whip cream and 5 big dills!) late last week and saved them until Saturday's football game against the Citadel so I could let other people get in on the deliciousness.


Emily and I mixed up some bloody mary's with our Big Dill vodka and it was SO good. Not too overwhelming, just the right amount of tangyness! Once I can get my hand on a full bottle of Big Dill, this will definitely be my go to drink.


See that orange soda behind me? That was to mix with the whip cream vodka. Orange creamsicle, which was AMAZING.

So, if you live in Virgina, go get you some Naked Jay Vodka. You will not be disappointed.

And if you don't, like their page on Facebook (here) and/or follow them on Twitter (here) to find out when NJV is coming to your area!
